Summary0000438: Display all entries of LDAP address book by default (if enabled)
Description

Currently all ldap address books initially show no entries.

Only when the user enters the wildcard (dot) in the search box, all addresses are shown.

For large ldap address books this is OK.
But for small sogo installations, it's somewhat "annoying" for the end users, if they don't directly see all available users.
So we have to educate the end users on how to find the other users, just to assign rights to them. (Or subscribe to calendars etc.)

It would be nice, if we had a configuration option per domain, which would allow the ldap address books be initially show filled.
Something like: SOGoShowAllLdapEntries = YES per domain.

Perhaps just prefill the searchbox with the dot ?

Additional Information

For small installations with < 100 users in the address book, this would be a great help, so the enduser don't have to know about the . character, and there is also no performance reason to not directly show all entries available.

Of course this should behave always the same way, anywhere where the ldap address book is shown (System address book, Assign rights, share folders, subscribe folders/calendars etc.)

TagsNo tags attached.

Probably not the right way to fix this bug, but this patch is a quick work around for the problem. I wouldn't recommend it on large LDAP directories, but for small directories (<= 200 contacts) it works great.

Very useful, some users think that address book is empty. You can display first 100/2o0 entry by default. Like in Thunderbird

I thought I installed SOGo wrong because of this. I understand it now. But I think my users will be baffled. The title says "for Thunderbird". It would be nice to have on the web GUI too.

I think the "best" (tm) approach for this wouold be to define in the addressbook definition when we wish to see all entries.
So the admin can decide if the load on the system(s) is acceptable or not

I'd also like this feature, using patch atm.

I've never had to apply a patch to SOGo, but I'd certainly like to use this one. How do I apply it?

An alternative could be a button like [Show All Contacts] where the user just click. It is easier to understand. Now, if there is too many contact, then SOGo can just show the first 300 and pop a dialog to inform the user that there is too many contacts. Maybe a config, to specify the max no. of contacts to show on [Show All Contacts] button.
