  1. 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.

  2. Mattermost - Read Only channel

    For the moment, when this option "ExperimentalTownSquareIsReadOnly" is set to true, all the Town Square channels of all the teams become read-only.

    It will great to set up this option not globally, but at the team level and not only on the "Town Square" channel but on any public channel.

  3. Prevent hashtags in code blocks from being counted as hashtags

    Whilst hashtags in code blocks are not highlighted blue and clickable, they do appear in a search for that hashtag and are treated as actualy uses of that hashtag on the back end.

    This causes issues as many code blocks inevitably have hashtags delineating comments.

    Ideally they should be ignored completely, but I reckon the behaviour should at least be consistent.

  4. Login with LDAP & SAML

    I would like to have the ability that a user can connect with LDAP and SAML. It means that the user could have two sign-in methods.
    We have a case that could be solved with this new feature.

  5. Make the user inactive when the user does not belong to a team

    By default, when a user connects to Mattermost, the user gets the "active" status even if the user does not belong to a team.
    Is it possible set the status to "inactive" when the user does not yet belong to a team ?

  6. Make history of last channels with part of last message on CTRL+K window

    Make history of last channels with part of last message on CTRL+K window. Because when you have many chat channels, it becomes difficult to navigate between them and remember where was your last important conversation.

  7. Quick Markdown insert

    Multiple ways to implement this :

    • Select a word, then right-click and chose a formatting option (bold, italic, code, etc)
    • Select a word and like in Office apps chose formatting options in a toolbar
    • Add keyboard shortcuts to add a specific markdown
    • Add most used markdowns under the input and make them clickable to insert them
    • Add an icon to add markdown (like the Emoji icon)

  8. Desktop app: Add Change status option to Taskbar tray

    In Windows, when you make a right-click on the notification tray icon, it would be nice to add a "Change status" option to switch easily between online, away, or busy.

  9. Combine messages from same user into one message

    This was completed before:

    https://mattermost.uservoice.com/forums/306457-general/suggestions/8684005-unite-messages-of-the-same-user

    But it looks like it only works in the full view when the left blue sidebar with channels is showing, not when the window is smaller and hides the sidebar.

  10. Dynamic documentation URL

    At the moment all the documentation points to https://mattermost.com which is inaccessible from our environment (no internet access). We have mirrored your documentation to our environment and wish to link to it, instead of https://mattermost.com
    At the moment this seems impossible.

  11. Add support for CSS themes

    I'm not happy with the current theme system. We can change only colors, but I would like to change a bit everything, to get something looking for instance like The Lounge:

    https://thelounge.chat/

    Things I would like to change:
    - typography
    - borders + shadow and radius
    - margins and paddings

    It would be quite easy if we could upload a piece of CSS based on a few class selectors. Like:

    .app__content {
      box-shadow: 0 0 25px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.75);
      z-index: 10;
      border-radius: 5px;
    }

  12. Users should be able to delete their datas without any admin intervention.

    Hello,
    cli tool is not user's compliant :)
    Users should be able to delete (not just deactivate) their datas without any admin intervention.

  13. Better wording for account deactivation

    When a user want to delete his account, he can think "deactivation" is enough but doesn't necessarily know that it just means that he cannot log anymore…

    Maybe (in advanced settings):

    "By deactivating your account you will no longer be able to log in but the messages will be kept. To permanently delete your account and your messages, please contact your administrator."

    And a similar (or the same) message in email notification.

  14. Have a reusable authentication link for guest accounts

    For guest accounts, right now they have to authenticate manually via credentials.

    It would be useful for the guests if there could be a link that they can use to instantly authenticate into the server.

  15. Make guest accounts expire after a set period of time

    Currently guest accounts are permanent until removed by the admins.

    It would be more convenient and secure if guest accounts have an automatic expiry date after a certain period of time.

  16. Have the option to enable 2FA authentication only for certain IP ranges

    Currently when we enable 2FA authentication, it is either enabled for all users or not at all, without any option to have a more granular approach.

    It would be great if we can enable 2FA authentication only for specific IP ranges based on the configurations of the admins.

  17. Add option to wrap text in code-blocks when using syntax highlighting

    Add option to wrap text in code-blocks when using syntax highlighting.

    Currently, if you use code-blocks like so:

    some very long text .....

    It will wrap as expected and no horizontal scrollbar will appear.

    However, if you specify syntax highlighting, like so:
    c++
    Some very long text ....

    It will not wrap and introduce scrollbars. I think it'd be nice to have some option to force wrapping, even when doing syntax highlighting.

    Side note: Is this actually a bug? Or is it expected?

  19. Cannot copy and/or paste text to mattermost

    I am using macOS Mojave and every time I copy some text from a different source (website, text editor) with command C and then try to paste it in a conversation with command V it doesn't work.

    Copy and paste only works if I copy paste with the right click of the mouse, which is slower and more uncomfortable

  20. Send a notification to the mobile app when the sesson is expired

    Currently, there is no way for a user to know that their mobile session expired without opening their app and checking it manually. This causes users to potentially miss out important messages as they may not realize that they are signed out.

    To solve this, it would be best if the Mattermost mobile app sent a notification when the session is expired, so the user is aware of it and can sign back in.
