  2. Chronological message stream over all channels

    Sometimes I read a message in one channel, get desturbed and get more messages in other channels. Later I want to go back to the first message, but cannot remember/find the channel anymore. In this case it would be handy to have a view of all messages from all channels in chronological order.

  3. Button to minimize inline images (ex: GIFs plugin)

    Users can minimize an image preview of an URL that is directly pasted in the message, with the cross button at the top left corner. However, there is no such button if the same image is inlined with the folowwing syntax ![Description'](https://example-url/test.gif).

    It'd be useful to have a way of minimizing inline images, like Slack does and like Mattermost does for raw URL previews.

    This is a follow-up on multiple requests from the users of moussetc/mattermost-plugin-giphy on GitHub (Issue 12).

  4. Make team tabs optional

    The new wide tab bar steals useful screen real estate, introduces visual redundancy to our single-server setup (team name mentioned twice within a really small area of UI), and makes the app look even less at home on macOS. The old top of the window bar at least looked native. Please consider making the tab bar optional at least in single-server environments.

  5. Add a keyboard shortcut to jump the the currently open RHS content/message thread.

    Often, I will have a long running thread/message-reply chain open, and then a certain channel open for other conversations. It would be great to have a keyboard shortcut to jump to the input for the sidebar, just like there is the equivalent "Focus Input" shortcut (Shift + GUI + L) that jumps to the input for the current channel.

    With that, I could easily jump between both places to add new messages without having to switch to my mouse/trackpad.

  6. "Next unread channel" keyboard shortcut should jump to unread in next Team if no unread in current team

    Currently, you can use the "Next Unread channel" shortcut in the apps (e.g. Alt + Shift + Down) to jump to the next unread channel. If there are no more unread channels in the current team, but the next team in your team list has unreads, then the shortcut should jump to that team and the first unread channel there.

  8. Using Mattermost as my only chat client.

    I like Mattermost client, it's way better than anything else out there.
    I want to manage my Facebook messages inside Mattermost client, and I want to connect to an IRC which has nothing to do with my corporation.

    So I want to mess my private life with work, but I would be very happy about this.

    There were trials, for example, libpurple with Pidgin chat client. But Pidgin is like using windows live messenger in 2020.

    I know Facebook Messenger has no public protocol for that, so I'm not requesting to implement that, but provide, for example, IRC, libpurple protocols…

  9. Have a button which takes you to the next (oldest) unread message.

    If you have a lot of channels (some of which may be off the screen), it may useful to have a 'Next Unread' button which jumps you to the earliest unread message.

  10. Option to use the OS window borders

    The new mattermost desktop app use a custom window border.
    But this does not always meet user expectations, especially under KDE I can freely configure the border.

    In my case, I have the close button on the left side (like MacOS) and no minimize / maximize buttons.

    I know from some apps (e.g. Chrome) that there is an option to use the framework of the OS.

  11. Support preview of HEIF / HEIC images

    Modern smartphones, iOS and Android based, save photos in HEIC instead of JPEG.

    As of now, there's no preview support for HEIC encoded images. When people post photos taken on their smartphones, users currently have to download the photo to see it.

    Therefore I suggest adding support of HEIC to the image previews feature.

  12. Make history of last channels with part of last message on CTRL+K window

    Make history of last channels with part of last message on CTRL+K window. Because when you have many chat channels, it becomes difficult to navigate between them and remember where was your last important conversation.

  13. Quick Markdown insert

    Multiple ways to implement this :

    • Select a word, then right-click and chose a formatting option (bold, italic, code, etc)
    • Select a word and like in Office apps chose formatting options in a toolbar
    • Add keyboard shortcuts to add a specific markdown
    • Add most used markdowns under the input and make them clickable to insert them
    • Add an icon to add markdown (like the Emoji icon)

  14. Desktop app: Add Change status option to Taskbar tray

    In Windows, when you make a right-click on the notification tray icon, it would be nice to add a "Change status" option to switch easily between online, away, or busy.

  15. Notify a user when they are removed from a channel

    When a user is removed from a channel, they aren't notified in any way - the channel just disappears from their window. It would be helpful to indicate that you've been removed.

  17. Don't create duplicate installation on Windows when upgrading (MSI)

    After upgrading the Windows desktop client from 4.3.1 to 4.3.2, both installed with the MSI, an entry for both versions exist in add/remove programs.

    Two keys are created in the registry.

    HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall{A44E2D12-7D92-4ABC-8366-35E1CD827C01}

    and

    HKEYLOCALMACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall{C0437176-EF43-4633-A55C-1164B09E8646}

    Updating the application, which would normally be a simple process of running the MSI for the latest version with the /qn switch through any systems management system has turned into a scripting exercise. Either the GUID should stay the same or the old version should be automatically removed.

    Additionally, removing 4.3.1 after installing 4.3.2 breaks the installation, as the files are installed…

  18. Automatically restart Mattermost after upgrade if it was already running (MSI)

    When updating existing installations of Mattermost with the MSI, the desktop app should automatically restart if it was running when the installation started. At the very least, the installer option that starts Mattermost after installation should be exposed as a public property, so it can be set as a switch when installing with msiexec.

    Currently, the MSI kills the process but it doesn't restart when running with the /qn switch.

  19. Enable a setting to allow sound alerts on a channel basis

    I love that I can get notified when there is a post with a sound. But we have a community channel that a huge number of people belong to where things are discussed that I'm not interested in. I was added to the channel by my boss, and think it would be rude to disconnect. But if I could just turn off the notifications for that channel then I wouldn't be so distracted looking at many many notifications that have nothing to do with me and my work. Thanks for letting us make suggestions to make Matermost even better! Our…

  20. Expand image previews in Compact Message Display mode

    I would like to be able to see a preview of the attached image even if I am in Compact Message Display Mode.
    Currently, even if the Account Settings > Display > Default appearance of image previews is set to Expanded, the image is only displayed as an attachment icon when Account Settings > Display > Message Display is set to Compact. These two settings should work independently of each other.
