I don’t like the fact, that average users can see all the members of our general chat-room, because this way they can see every discourse user who exists. we already disabled the public user directory to secure the privacy of the users. but every average user is generally assigned to this public chat for all users. is there a way to disable the showing of all chat-members? i checked website settings for “chat members” or “chat”, but couldn’t find so far a setting for it. I would really appreciate any idea

They mention checking website settings for “chat members” or “chat” options but were unable to find a configuration to disable the display of chat members.
