lobby_deactivate

Lobby Deactivate

This plugin deactivates the lobby after the first authorized user joins.

It is expected to be used with lobby_autostart. It keeps the lobby active for unauthorized users but deactivates it when an authorized user joins the meeting.

Recommendation: Set config.lobby.autoKnock in config.js for a better user experience.
