	matrix-nginx-proxy is going away and this is one of the features it offered. This feature will have no equivalent in our new Traefik-only setup, although it's possible to implement it manually by using `matrix_client_element_container_labels_additional_labels`

| # Configuring Riot-web (optional)
 | |
| 
 | |
| By default, this playbook **used to install** the [Riot-web](https://github.com/element-hq/riot-web) Matrix client web application.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Riot has since been [renamed to Element](https://element.io/blog/welcome-to-element/).
 | |
| 
 | |
| - to learn more about Element and its configuration, see our dedicated [Configuring Element](configuring-playbook-client-element.md) documentation page
 | |
| - to learn how to migrate from Riot to Element, see [Migrating to Element](#migrating-to-element) below
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Migrating to Element
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Migrating your custom settings
 | |
| 
 | |
| If you have custom `matrix_riot_web_` variables in your `inventory/host_vars/matrix.DOMAIN/vars.yml` file, you'll need to rename them (`matrix_riot_web_` -> `matrix_client_element_`).
 | |
| 
 | |
| Some other playbook variables (but not all) with `riot` in their name are also renamed. The playbook checks and warns if you are using the old name for some commonly used ones.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Domain migration
 | |
| 
 | |
| We used to set up Riot at the `riot.DOMAIN` domain. The playbook now sets up Element at `element.DOMAIN` by default.
 | |
| 
 | |
| There are a few options for handling this:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - (**avoiding changes** - using the old `riot.DOMAIN` domain and avoiding DNS changes) -- to keep using `riot.DOMAIN` instead of `element.DOMAIN`, override the domain at which the playbook serves Element: `matrix_server_fqn_element: "riot.{{ matrix_domain }}"`
 | |
| 
 | |
| - (**embracing changes** - using only `element.DOMAIN`) - set up the `element.DOMAIN` DNS record (see [Configuring DNS](configuring-dns.md)). You can drop the `riot.DOMAIN` in this case.
 | |
| 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Re-running the playbook
 | |
| 
 | |
| As always, after making the necessary DNS and configuration adjustments, [re-run the playbook](./installing.md) to apply the changes.
 | |
| ```
