When feature_ask_to_join is enabled in labs, I still don't see the "People" tab in room settings. How to fix?

@catfromplan9 did you set the rooms join rule to knock/ask to join first..?

Yes, and i requested to join on my alt. Im not seeing the request but i can use my instance to request to join rooms with that setting

I deployed latest element from develop branch today. I have the ask to join function itself, just not the tab for accepting invites. develop.element.io works though

@catfromplan9 if it works on develop.element.io but not on your custom develop branch deployment then the issue sounds on your end. Keep in mind the feature only merged 2 days ago so definitely won't be in any release tags. https://github.com/vector-im/element-web/blob/develop/.github/workflows/build_develop.yml for how develop is built & deployed.

I ran this

git clone https://github.com/vector-im/element-web
cd element-web
yarn
yarn install
yarn dist

Then i untarred it in my webroot, and set the following settings (atleast the ones relevant to this issue) in my config.json
