This is a really easy and quick mod if you want to have the Auto Suggest feature of the messaging system search through all users, not just friends.



Open ./templates/user_messages_new.tpl

Go to around line 16 and change from:

script:"misc_js.php?task=suggest_friend&limit=5&",
To:

// script:"misc_js.php?task=suggest_friend&limit=5&", // used for searching friends
script:"misc_js.php?task=suggest_user&limit=5&",// used for searching all users
