  1. Improve reporting on invitation lifecycle

    Currently, nearly no information is exposed to admins about what is happening with invitations individually, or even in aggregate. On any workspace with restricted teams it's important to be able to identify how any individual user was added to a restricted team. In the event that a user who should not be there is added, finding out how they were added so process, rules, etc. can be updated is critical. The critical piece of this is being able to track invites on an individual basis. This shouldn't require any user interface changes, just additions to the INFO level logging.

  3. Add a "Message" button to the System Console -> Users -> User Configuration view

    Sometimes when I'm working in the Users section of the system console I have reason to want to message the user or users I'm working with. It would be convenient to have a way to initiate a message from the individual user view in System Console -> Users rather than having to copy a user's username, exit the system console, and then start a chat. Especially when I need to follow that up with some other activity in the system console.

  4. Option to disable threads

    I am new to mattermost but this thread thing sucks.

    I want to reply to a message in the same chat. 99.99999% of the time the response thread only contains a single reply and its not worth the hassle.

    So please add an option to disable threads, or at least an easy way to reply in same chat that does not include manually copying the text and adding >

  5. Ability to hide other team members custom statuses

    I would like the ability to hide all, or individual, user custom statuses. I don't want to disable them at the server level, just a display menu option.

  6. Provide feedback that a photo/video is uploading/processing

    Currently, when a photo or video is being shared the send button will grey out, but the user isn't presented with any "progress" as to the upload, this can be a little confusing.
    On the web version and uploading progress bar appears, it would be nice to make a similar feature for the mobile app

  7. Check / uncheck checklist items from message

    It would be nice if messages that comprise checklist items could be clicked to check / uncheck items. For now, the author can edit their message to change - [ ] item into - [x] item for instance, but that's cumbersome. Moreover, it would be nice if other members could be given permission to tick / untick items of a message sent by someone else.

  9. Use the system AUTH log facility for failed logins

    It would be great if Mattermost could use the system AUTH log facility for failed logins.

    It can (obviously) still do its usual logging as configured, etc. but I think failed login attempts should always be done to the system log facility as well.

    It makes integrations with things like fail2ban far less complicated.

    My two cents.

  10. Add functionality to automatically add new users to a team

    A lot of new users are unfamiliar with / confused by teams. So they don't select one, and then can't post anything, and an admin has to manually add them. There should be an easy way for all new users to be automatically added to a team.

  11. 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:

  12. 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…

  13. 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…

  14. 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.

  16. 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…

  17. 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.

  18. 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…

  19. 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!
