  1. 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.

  2. 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."

  3. 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.

  4. 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.…

  5. Automatic detection of programming language syntax when you send code with markdown and the language is not specified

    When sending code with this markdown syntax: https://docs.github.com/en/free-pro-team@latest/github/writing-on-github/creating-and-highlighting-code-blocks#fenced-code-blocks

    And if the language is not specified for the highlighting. I propose to create a detection and an automatic addition of the language. Automatic detection with this library: https://highlightjs.org/

  6. Allow integrations to add buttons to ios / adroid interface

    While the desktop and browser interface have integrations buttons in the top right corner (Zoom / Jitsi), this is not available for the Android/iOS versions.
    While / commands work (/jitsi) it is not intuitive for new users.

    Suggestion is to allow adding a icon next to the / icon in the interface.

  7. Make several threads in direct message with specific user

    I've multiple topics in direct message threads with specific users. I need to multiplicate them and rename accordingly with the name of the topics.

    Example

    With user A.B. I have topics like:
    - offers
    - strategy
    - UX
    etc.

    I need to switch between the topics to see what we discuss in the previous discussion about that specific topic.

  9. Change iOS notification sound

    On the iOS platform there doesn’t appear to be a way to customize the sound made for a new message alert. And worse still, it makes a rather generic default iPhone “ding” sound that just disappears among all the other noise my phone constantly makes.

    It would be really ideal if that sound can either be changeable by the user, or at least unique enough to be easily recognized (think the tweet sound from the twitter app for example).

    A way to achieve this could be by exposing a settings configuration option that allows the user to choose from sounds…

  11. Ability to add users to team or channel from mobile device

    While I'm on my cell phone, I should be able to access and invite people to the team or channel that I am currently in. Both for users who are not currently on the server via email, and users who exist but are in a separate team.

  12. Mute channel categories

  13. Send E-Mail using Slash Command

    We are using a e-mail-based ticket system (e.g., ticketsupport@company-name.org). As most of our communication switched to Mattermost, the only remainder is writing mails to create a ticket.
    Therefore, it would be really convenient to send a e-mail using something like:
    /[mail-address] ["Subject"] ["Body"]
    The from address is the address used by Mattermost.

  14. allow tagging of channel that needs further attention

    I like to read all my channels that have new posts first and then go back to the channels that need follow up action. But once I have looked at a channel it is no longer highlighted so it can be hard to find. It would be good to be able to tag it or keep it highlighted until dealt with.

  15. Increase the maximum nickname length (or a pronoun field)

    In our mattermost, users have been organically adding their pronouns to the end of their nickname, which is great, but when users have particularly long names, it's impossible for them to add more than 22 characters.

    Example: "Joe Smith (he/him)" works fine at 18 characters, but "Alexander Bernard (They/Them)" at 29 characters goes well past the 22 character limit.

    Because of the number of potential duplicate users based on their first name, there just isn't a good way to add pronouns, and it's difficult to explain that the 22 character limit on nicknames isn't able to be extended on our…

  17. Android smartphones needs to be free of pre-installed apps.. It's really bothersome. Users never use some of pre-installed apps

    Android smartphones need to be free of pre-installed apps. It's really bothersome. Users never use some of the pre-installed apps until they put the device in a trash can. Perhaps average users could have used the device even without a SD card if the device would free of pre-installed apps

  19. 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.
