  2. Feature to enable Auto theme switch based on MacOS theme

    Introduce an "Auto mirror OS theme" toggle button in Mattermost Desktop for MacOS (and possibly Windows) client so it can mirror the MacOS theme setting (Settings > General > Appearance) Light and Dark automatically.

    Many users would want to use dark themes for their apps to work at night, but Mattermost default theme is pretty bright in the dark.

    Right now it should be a manual theme change to switch to the Mattermost dark theme. This would be a great step towards better user experience.

  3. Ignore some website link previews

    At my work we use a self hosted Mattermost server.
    Shared links in chat are roughly 50/50 between:
    - Fun, or informative public websites.
    - Internal links, often requiring a login.

    For the first a preview is beneficial. It breaks up the wall of text and gives some quick details. These previews are usually unique.

    For the latter a preview is useless. Often showing a login-required text. These previews sometimes take a lot of space, and they you always show the same thing (website title, generic description, logo - sometimes large as a preview photo). Examples are: links to internal…

  5. Snooze channel for 1h, 8hrs or 24hhrs

    It would be nice to be able to mute a channel for a set period of time then it automatically unmute itself. Facebook Messenger has a similar feature called Snooze.

  7. 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.

  9. Simple image editor - draw line to highligt part of image

    A simple image editor for uploaded images. This to draw lines, write text and add arrows. Would be great when explaining things. As in a quick bug report.

  10. Integrate with Office 365/GDrive calander

    It would be useful if we could set up mattermost to notify us from multiple calendars (personal, work etc). This way the user would not have to leave mattermost to check meetings/calls and make MM a more integrated workspace tool.

  11. Allow Webhooks to post to Reply Threads

    From: https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server/issues/10463

    At the moment, the "comment" value for response_type will only trigger for the triggering message, even if that message is part of a thread. Maybe a value of "thread" can tell it to reply in the thread rather than creating another thread just to respond to the trigger message.

  13. Ability to Reply to Message with Webhook

    It would be awesome for us, when something like this could be achieved:

    I use a slash command in a thread (right side), the triggered post will include the parent message id.

    Add the parent message id to incoming webhooks. So I can reply to a thread with webhooks.

  14. Override "I forgot my password" for AD/LDAP Authentication

    When using AD/LDAP authentication for the Mattermost Enterprise server there is still an "I forgot my password" link. I suggest that you allow Administrators to override where that link points to. For example, I would like that link to point to my corporate password reset and unlock portal. And/or allow administrators to turn that link off. This could be a part of the "Custom Branding" options on the Enterprise version.

    You can remove the “forgot password link” by
    - setting “Enable sign-in with email” to false
    - setting “Enable sign-in with username” to false

    That said, we’ll keep this feature proposal open for customizing the “I forgot my password” link.

  15. Read Receipts: Implement a visual indication for messages if and when they have been read by other users of the channel

    Sometimes one's wondering if a post has already been read by other users. I could image that a member list of the channel pops up when one is selecting the read status from the particular post menu ("[..]").
    In private chats, a sinple check sign (similar to whatsapp) could signalize if a message had beend read by your counterpart.

  19. Provide an option to only show channels with unread messages

    We have a Mattermost installation where I'm subscribed to 24 channels, most of which are fairly quiet. Except for the channels that are at the top and bottom of the list (of course). I'm continually scrolling up and down.

    I'd like to have an option that hides channels that have no unread messages. Hiding all-read private groups and DMs would be a bonus.

    Thanks Brian and others for suggesting this feature!

    We are considering to add a setting to hide all read channels in the sidebar: https://mattermost.atlassian.net/browse/MM-7502

    In the meantime, there are two features that can help your teams:
    1) Mattermost v4.7+ supports a setting to group all unread channels at the top. This makes it easier to find all your unreads. It must first be enabled by your System Admin: https://docs.mattermost.com/administration/config-settings.html#group-unread-channels-experimental
    2) Mattermost v4.9+ shows unread channels when using the channel switcher (CMD/CTRL+K)

  20. Code snippet with preview

    It would be really nice to have preview boxes of long code blocks (Code snippets).
    It should be cropped if there are more then x lines (maybe configurable), and could be opened in a new tab or fade out within the chat. An extra code viewer "window" would be nice.

    E.g. :
    https://i.imgur.com/6I25yR1.png

    It is really easy to do so:
    Add a span/div element within the code block, give it absolute bottom position and a height (50px here), give it a gradient bg color and give the code block a max-height with overflow hidden. there you go.
