  1. Sort Posts by Most Recent First.

    Would it be possible to sort posts by most recent first (top of list) so one does not have to scroll down to the bottom of a post list, or at least offer this as an option?

  3. Change custom attributes to support user set attribute values

    Custom attributes should optionally support having both a name and a value at the point of definition by the system admin.
    They would be as currently assigned to users/teams/group as
    appropriate. The value of the attribute could then be set at this time or by the user, team/group owner in a custom attribute extension to the user profile or similarly for for teams and group. Support for attributes of type simple
    (no value, current behavior), required (must be set), overridable (can be changed or not from value set by system) could also be added.

  5. Allow me to customize my ignore mentions list for notifications

    Currently we can set notifications to Ignore mentions for @channel, @here and @all. I would like to customize that list, much like the opposite of the user settings for triggering mentions.

  6. Notifications when a specific user posts in a channel

    I would like to set it so I get notified when a specific user (such as my manager) posts in a channel. This would make it faster to see any questions and he would get a faster response.

  7. Schedule do not disturb

    Users should have the option to set do not disturb status (or offline) based on a time schedule, or for the next X number of hours. A user would define the time DND should be active and the app would switch status during that time period. Currently users wishing to stop notifications must manually set DND status. But the user must also remember to reset the status. This allows users to define a time when they do not want to receive alerts/notifications.

  9. Option to allow hiding the server tabs bar

    I would love to be able to hide the top server tabs bar on my single-server setup. Lots of wasted space when I don't have any other servers. I like to have the window fairly small, sort of old-school instant-messaging style, and when I do, 5% of the height of the window is taken up by the tabs bar (yes, I'm that kind of person where I measured the height of my window in pixels and the height of the tabs bar using GIMP).

    Even if I were connected to other servers, I could switch servers using a keyboard shortcut…

  10. Implement a font size setting or possibility to increase font inline

    A font size option is quite an important feature to increase accessibility for all users including vision impairment users on various levels.
    I think it is quite self-explanatory so there is no need for long descriptions

  12. ui customization

    I think it's necessary to have at least option like font size which can be changed by user, especially for phones whose screen is small.

    Further more, if we can choose to hide the time stamp, the user name (in private chat), we would be able to focus on the messages themselves.

  13. Design a plug-in that can be configured to send specific hashtag comments to certain channels.

    Comments with specific hashtags will be sent to specified channels.
    Example: #Outage could be sent to a general user notification channel as well as an administrators channel.
    Example: A reference to a specific program release in a developer chat could be sent to to a project-specific QA chat.

  15. Custom channel header to show up in the sidebar

    I have several team/group conversations. They each show up in the sidebar as "Alphabetized person's name, next person's name." We have the ability to give a channel a custom header. It would be nice if that custom header could be what is displayed in the sidebar. Thank you.

  16. Adding mattermost to the share menu on Mac OSX

    When quickly sharing a files, it would be useful to have Mattermost in the Share Menu by default.

  17. Display direct message description instead of member list in the channel list

    For direct messages, an option to display the channel description in the channel list instead of (an often truncated) list of members would be very useful.

    This would make it much easier to find the correct channel if you have many of them; and also when direct channels have many and/or similar members.

  18. Support other Postgres schema but public

    I have not found any way to specify the Postgres schema that mattermost should use and saw that the "public" schema was in the sql migration files.

    Using the public schema is not a recommended practice with postgres : https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Database_Schema_Recommendations_for_an_Application

    See first section stating :
    "The recommendation is to create a single database with multiple named schemas [...]. Additionally, it is recommended to remove the public schema."

  19. Remove message action popup when selecting text

    If someone sends you a long message with text you need to copy, the pop on the right side of Mattermost for replying, reacting to messages, and has "more actions", gets in the way of selecting the text.

    This is especially bad when using the compact layout, because it completely obscures the text underneath it. It would be nice if the popup didn't overflow on to messages or at least didn't show up when selecting text.

  20. Newcommers to private channels should not have access to the past logs

    When a new user is invited to a private channel, s.he can access all the past logs as if s.he was a member of the channel from Day 1. I see this as a sort of privacy pitfall, as you have to control your language thinking of who may be invited in the future. That's not exactly what I'd call a private discussion channel.

    My use case is that we are using mattermost to discuss our research project. I can perfectly imagine how we discuss together about a concurring project and then later introduce a postdoc coming from that group.…
