  1. I can search easily for a group name on iPhone, but there is not the same convenient matching feature on macOS.

    I can search easily for a group name on iPhone, but there is not the same convenient matching feature on macOS. Also on iPhone, I see all unread messages at top of list, on macOS I have to scan the whole list to find unread messages. So the macOS client needs to catch up with the iPhone.

  2. Sending payload in »application/json« for slash commands

    Almost all integrations in Mattermost send or receive payloads with a »application/json« content type. Incoming Webhooks, Outgoing Webhooks (configurable, see ticket https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server/issues/1649), Interactive Message Buttons… but not »Slash Commands«. Slash Commands are the only integration type, which sends it payload as »application/x-www-form-urlencoded«. Please allow sending a slash command with »application/json«.

  3. List accepted (and not yet ones) invitations

    Keep track to whom accepted invitation and those who didn't yet.
    When you send invitations to many people, you can't know for sure who actually accepted so you may want to resend invitations to your list of contacts (and again… And again…).

  4. Policy for new account to change the initial password

    Hello world,

    we host mattermost by our own. So it is not allowed to register by your self. Our admin create the user with a initial password.

    So it will be good, that the user have to change the initial password.

    What do you think about it?

    Best reguards

  5. Read-only for external clients

    It would be great to send secure links of an private channel to a client for status updates.

    What i want to do is:
    I want to start a new channel and write status updates or some information about the progress of an project.
    External clients should be able to view this channel only and see what has been posted und get current state if they want.
    But they should not be forced to register a new account. (Read/view only).

  6. Galera cluster support

    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.

  7. Embed Calender, etc

    It would be nice if there would be the possibility to create channels in which you could fix an embed content in the upper area. E.g. a Google calendar which shows the weekly overview or an external service for data storage etc..

    Alternatively, a bot that writes the Daily Todos in a channel like slack would be possible: https://get.slack.help/hc/de/articles/206329808-Google-Kalender-f%C3%BCr-Slack

  8. Option to make username invisible

    When creating a post or searching for users to add to teams or channels, only the full name or nickname should appear and the username should be hidden according to a configuration.

    In my case, a username is linked to a worker's ID, which is pretty personal and long to show.

  9. Line numbers for code blocks

    When in meetings (with slow internet speed where you cannot share your screen), it is difficult to refer to lines of code that are not numbered and discuss things. It'd be great if lines were numbered or at least there was an option to optionally enable such a feature or a separate "numbered codeblock" feature.

  10. Allow users to reset "Do not ask me again" prompts

    A Jira issue (https://mattermost.atlassian.net/browse/MM-4815) implemented a modal pop-up that prompts users to reset their presence to "Online" when they first open the client in cases where they previously set their status to "Away" or "Offline" in the UI.

    Once you select "Do not ask me again" you are never asked again. As a downside, there is no way to reset this prompt. You're stuck with your decision forever... unless you can hunt through the Mattermost DB to delete the right value from the right table.

    Users should be able to reset any "do not ask me again" prompts…

  12. Option to show integration username overrides in push notifications

    When push notifications get sent they show up as my username for my integrations (username posted to channel). It would be great if the notifications showed username overrides instead or there was an option to do so, "Nagios posted to channel".

  13. Allow restricting GitLab/GitHub SSO user signups to only a particular team

    Near as I can tell, right now if you use the GitLab/GitHub SSO option, any user with an account is able to sign up. It'd be great if there was a way to restrict signups to only users who are members of a particular team.

  14. Pseudo-random default avatars

    Make the default user's avatars more random. Instead of just being a circle with the first letter of the user's username, use some hashing algorithm to generate some sort of identicons. An idea very popular nowadays (Github, GitLab, Gravatar, Slack, etc)

  15. Make referencing/embedding attached images easier

    It's already easy to attach an image simply via drag and drop or pasting it from the clipboard. That's great!

    Unfortunately at the moment it is not possible to attach an image and directly reference/embed it in the message, so that it is shown in the text. You first have to send the message to get access to the image links.

    The easiest solution would be, to provide image links even without sending the message, so that we can link manually.

    The more sophisticated solution would allow me to click on the image which should then paste the image link…

  16. Allow users and passwords to be created from admin console

    While having users create their own accounts as a result of sending an e-mail invite, I'd like to be able to make users and assign them permissions and passwords right from the admin console, without having to configure SSO or drop to a command line.

  17. Custom tutorial text

    Enable the setting of custom tutorial text for the three tutorial intro screens, with markdown formatting support and preview of the messages to be sent.

    As a secondary priority, enable the setting of different messages based on the preferences of the end user, defaulting to English if no message is set.

    Requesting this because often organizations want to share more about the purpose of their Mattermost deployment, and include different links, e.g. link to naming conventions to use for channels, an internal user's guide to the key features in the system intended to be used, perhaps a video introduction from…

  18. smtp authorization support request

    for most small company, there is no ldap servier or sso. but all most have email service, self hosted or saas like google mail.
    if there is a authorization type called smtp authorization like oauth2(google,gitlab...), it will make company helpful more without make another authorization system, bothered with account management.

  19. Show filenames after dragging a file into a message

    Currently when you drag a file into a message the name of the file isn't shown until you send a message. It would be nice if the filename could be displayed before sending so that you can confirm the right file was dragged in.

  20. copy existing mattermost token to other teams

    Currently there are many integrations via webhook / slash commands that need a specific token to be set up in the configuration.

    if you want to use the same slash command for several teams its not possible without updating the database manually with the same token you used before in another team.

    the best option would be something like a seperate option to set the generated token id manually, so its possible to use 1 token for 1 integration for all teams that are created in mattermost.

    Did the same manually in the mattermost database, by selecting the commands table…
