Per the Monox User Guide. "Another important property is
SocialNetworkingMode: it defines if all users are searched when the active user starts typing -
alternatively" How do you get to this property after adding th web part to a page?

Thanks.

Hi,

this is a global property that you can set, and it will be loaded automatically within the WebPart. You can set this inside the web.config

<!-- social networking mode: Friend or Group-based. In group mode the user can invite and message only the users that are members of the same groups. -->

<add key="SocialNetworkingMode" value="Friend" />

Regards

Thank you for the response, however when I change to the Group-based mode it did not change the users displayed in the People Search web part. To test I logged in with a user with only one role (one of our custom roles) and the admin (MonoX adminstrator still displayed). Is there something else I need to do to limit the list to only the users in the group?

Thanks.
Joe

Hi,

for group people search you should use the "~\MonoX\ModuleGallery\SocialNetworking\Groups\GroupPeopleSearch.ascx" - "Group member search".

Please try to use this control and get back to us.
