  1. Threads: Proposal for additional usability and readability Option

    Dear Team,
    thanks for the awesome Mattermost App!

    I love threads, and i would like to suggest an additional usability and readability option:

    Background (or "what drives me mad"):
    Everybody knows the flow of conversations, they have the tendency to get unstructurized and important threads of messages get "buried" below new incoming messages in the parent channel.
    Also People sometimes dont answer in threads, either they dont want to use threads, or they accidently answer in the parent channel.
    This makes things more than often confusing to follow..

    My Proposal to implement just some options:

    How it works Now:

  2. Show emoji in Thread view as you do in Channel view

    SUPER EASY FEATURE / FIX
    In the Threads list, show the emoji that are on the first message of the thread just like you get in Channel view.

    We use threads as key topics of discussion, many are related to things that need to get done. When complete, we mark the first message in the thread with green check. We also use it to report bugs by marking the first message in a thread with the bug emoji. We have several emoji use cases for different purposes across different departments.

    For some reason, the emoji is missing in the Threads…

  3. Facing Issues with NSF File Conversion Tools

    Hello everyone,

    I’ve recently been trying to convert some NSF files (from Lotus Notes) into a more accessible format like PST or PDF for use in my current audio-visual editing workflow. Unfortunately, most of the tools I tried either crash during conversion or don’t maintain the original file structure. This has created delays in my project timelines. Can anyone suggest a reliable and secure NSF file converter that retains folder hierarchy and metadata during the conversion process? Also, if someone could share their experience with using any specific tool, that would be a great help.

    Thanks in advance for your…

  4. Display Nickname or Full Name Based on Settings

    I configured nicknamefullname: true, but the username is still displayed while drafting a chat. This is not user-friendly.
    The same problem also occurs when full_name: true is configured.

    https://docs.mattermost.com/configure/site-configuration-settings.html#teammate-name-display

    I'm Japanese, and Japanese characters cannot be used in usernames. Therefore, displaying only the username is very troublesome for my organization.

  6. Add "to:" search modifier, ability to confine a search to specific direct messages

    Ability to search messages using a "to:" search modifier. It's great to be able to search for messages "from:" a certain user, but it would be great to have "to:" as well.

    This would be helpful, for example, to help prevent me from asking team members repetitive questions. I know that a certain team member is the subject matter expert for a given topic. I know I've probably asked this team member a given question before at some point. If I could search "to:username given_topic" that seems the most logical way to find the last time I asked him this…

  7. Search parameter for message priority

    We got a few user requests if it's possible to search specifically for prioritized messages with the possibility to define the type of priority (important, urgent). This would be very helpful sometimes.

  8. Feature Request: Mass unfollow threads

    Mattermost gets laggy when there you are following many threads. To the point that opening the "threads" tab fail to load with timeout errors. See github issues below:
    https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost/issues/23690#issuecomment-2611855763

    This is true to people that have been using mattermost for a while now, we have been using it for 6 years and using collapsible threads since they are in beta.

    Being able to mass unfollow all past threads will fix this.

    I have tried disabling threads in the whole organization and re-enabling it but it didn't remove the follows.

    If there's any backend/sql command i could run that would be…

  9. Bulk actions for drafts (i.e., delete)

    I guess I'm an indecisive typer, but I regularly find myself having to empty out my entire list of drafts (from thread replies, in particular) on the desktop app. And since these are scoped to each 'team' I've joined, I have to do it N times.

    A way to 'select all' (+ maybe unselect those drafts I want to keep) and delete them would be great! Thank you beforehand!

  12. I would like to request the following enhancements for incoming webhooks

    I would like to request the following enhancements for incoming webhooks in Mattermost:

    The ability to reply to a message sent via an incoming webhook using another incoming webhook message.
    The ability to pin a message sent via an incoming webhook to the channel and unpin previously pinned messages.
    These features would improve automation and message management within channels.

  13. User groups on Free plan

    I am currently in the process of migrating some of the community groups i participate in on Discord to Mattermost (a couple of game communities and a big friends group, about 60 people) in order to self host them.

    The only big feature mattermost (free) is missing compared to Discord is user groups and advanced ACL. I’m open to subscribe to a paid plan to support Mattermost development, but 10$/user/month is just way too much for this use-case.

    Would you consider adding the user groups feature (and maybe a subset of advanced ACL) to the Free plan (maybe in a…

  15. Change mmctl user to also allows changing the firstname / lastname (aka fullname) as well as the alias

    When using MM with auth providers, in most cases, its not possible to change the user data once a user has been created.

    It would be nice to be able to use

    mmctl user name --firstname Igmar --lastname Palsenberg igmar

    from the cli.

    If we agree, I'll do a PR for the code changes.

  18. Give each channel in the sidebar a badge that displays the number of "unread messages" in that channel

    Add an option such that, if a channel has any unread messages, a badge will appear in the sidebar for that channel that indicates the number of unread messages. For my team, there can be a lot of activity across at least a handful of channels. It'd be amazing if a badge could appear next to each channel when there are unread messages so that I know how many there are in that channel. It'd be super helpful for triaging messages. To know if there's a little new activity in that channel, or a ton of new activity that I'm…

  19. Central Server for Mattermost Instances

    All self-hosted Mattermost Servers could be authenticated and coordinated by a central server like hub.mattermost.com.
    For example, I have accounts on chat.rockylinux.org and chat.almalinux.org, as well as two self-hosted servers for our organization.
    I want to add all four to my hub.mattermost.com (or some cool subdomain).
    And once I log in to main.mattermost .com, I get the list of servers on which I have accounts.
    If I have an account on hub.mattermost.com, I do not need to create accounts on all servers.
    The hub.mattermost.com can do the on-boarding and data sharing.
    Something like what discord.com does.

    The only notification of a Playbook task being assigned to a user seems to happens in the daily digest. We'd like to be trigger a notification as that assignment happens either to the Playbook's run channel or via a webhook.
