The option 'user create' in the Command Line Tools is email, firstname, lastname, locale, nickname, password, username, system_admin. There is no "position".
I would like an option to set "position".

Users seem to expect that "Flag post" means "Report post" and do not think of it as a way to bookmark posts.

Especially as in the web-app "flag post" is not displayed along the other post-actions, but instead by the side of the posting username.

I already filed that as a github issue: https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server/issues/9990

In cases of a international team managing time zone is often difficult. It would be great if Mattermost supported some kind of timezone conversion. A user can choose his timezone in settings and when posting dates or times in a chat, a special syntax, probably something along the lines of (12:00 PM) would be required. The clients will auto convert the time to local users timezone while displaying. This could be an opt-in feature.

There should be an option to allow MM to send notifications wheneven user modifies a message or maybe even when a message is deleted.
Also you be great to have anotification wheneven someone adds a reaction to your message.

Make Mattermost API channels search method
( /teams/{team_id}/channels/search )
to include private channels where the current user is a member.

E.g. if the user A is a member of channel B and user A performs channel search, it will get channel B in a response from server if B matches the term.

In Mattermost 5.5.0 search returns only public channels in results. The only way to find channel by display name is to get all channels current user is a member of and iterate over them on client side.

Just like we have tumbnails on pictures. helping us identify what we are looking for without having to open the preview tool.
It would be great if we could have thumbnails on videos too.

Galera cluster provides multi master SQL database (e.g. upon MariaDB or MySQL) and can help strengthen the database backend. As it easy to deal with mattermost-server outages (simply run another instance very quickly), it is mostly painfull to deal with single DB outage.

Galera cluster can be supported in a direct way - add all db nodes to the configuration and use it in balanced way or as a fallback - or can be used via haproxy or similar.

Currently when moving a channel with CLI you must first manually add all users to new team. The CLI should automatically add missing users to new team when moving channel.

When users have their mattermost window open all the time, animated emoji that are endlessly looping can be very distracting and annoying. If they paused after looping a set number of times, it would greatly improve the user experience for me.

Have an option to change preview display to show the preview without file name and size. Intead a wider thumbnail.

The same way we can send messages, we should be able to send voice messages.

It should be as simple as click "add voice", record what you want, press send and it's made available on the server for others to listen.

It should be supported by browser and mobile client apps.

It would be really helpful to be able to specify a whitelist of IPs or accounts that can bypass the API rate limit. For instance, I use the API to batch-create lots of user accounts, which generates a high volume of requests. Yet, I don't want to allow such a big volume for any user account/IP address, just for sysops and localhost. Would this be possible?

Hello,
it could be very usefull to have the possibility to share ones private message to another private user or to a channel; instead of copy and paste it.

Hello,

in the case a channel is used to receive notifications in a defined interval, messages are bound to multiply and to be too numerous.

So i think it should be interesting to delete the messages from a channel by the creator of this channel or by a webhook.

be able to modify team global settings like send email notification, send mobile notification and future ones in the admin console.

i can't find any persons in channel or in personal messages by Position.

For example i have 3 "web-developer" users, and 2 "c# developers", i can find then by FirstName, LastName, nickname but field "Position" is out of search.

It would be great if the search for the field position was possible.

I should be able to upgrade Mattermost without any downtime in Team Edition.

it is possible t create our own chat hierarchy? for example i want to create some chat on this way

1.- Client
2.- Team
3.- Project: inside here the prject cht rooms woth groups of members managed in a custom app or mattermost
