Introduce a **Check Later Box** for improved async communication
A lot of times people want to drop a message to someone who don't need to check it immediately.
Examples
- Check these PRs when you have time
- Review this doc please
- Hey! I wanted to talk about the deployment process when you have time.
- Hey check this new video out on how TypeScript was created
etc.These are in general low priority items.
With todos and reminders, it's me doing the hard work of adding things to a todo list that I should check later. The current DM doesn't work because if something urgent comes up…

Bigger writing screen for the mobile app
Dear Mattermost team
In the mobile app when answering to a message, the reply writing screen is only 3 lines wide … whereas received message takes all the screen.
Why this choice ?
Do we need in priority to read constantly the received message or to be very focused on our reply ?Let’s make the reply writing screen full screen for the confort of writing.
Thanks
Arno

Retrieve Private Channels in Team through API as Team Admin
If you've found the following limitation through the API where Private Channels in a given Team cannot be listed by a Team Admin due to access restrictions in the API
"Get Public Channels For Team" API endpoint currently requires permission listteamchannels in order to list Public Channels within a team.
https://api.mattermost.com/#tag/channels/operation/GetPublicChannelsForTeam"Get Private Channels For Team" currently requires permission manage_system in order to list Private Channels within a team. That permission is restricted to System Admins.

Make text selectable in images
In macOS Monterey and later, you can select text in screenshots and other images in e.g. Preview.app. When people paste screenshots of user interfaces etc. on Mattermost, and I want to copy & paste some text from it, then I have to first right-click the image and select "Copy Image", then switch to Preview.app, paste the image there, and then select and copy, and switch back to Mattermost to paste the text. This requires more steps then necessary, and is not very discoverable, leading many to simply not know they can copy text from screenshots.
If one limits the feature…

Provide a "Mark read" choice in mobile push notifications
A "Mark read" choice in push notifications about new messages, as seen in many IM apps, would be handy in Mattermost Mobile too. Currently the message can only be marked read by tapping the message to open the app (which is slow).

Line numbers for code blocks
When in meetings (with slow internet speed where you cannot share your screen), it is difficult to refer to lines of code that are not numbered and discuss things. It'd be great if lines were numbered or at least there was an option to optionally enable such a feature or a separate "numbered codeblock" feature.

seen messages in direct message or channel
In Telegram you can see who read the message in channel.
I think it's good feature, because right now I gotta set reaction on message to let know user who mentioned me that I read it and he doesn't need to repeat it me in DM. also we want this on direct message

Option to make username invisible
When creating a post or searching for users to add to teams or channels, only the full name or nickname should appear and the username should be hidden according to a configuration.
In my case, a username is linked to a worker's ID, which is pretty personal and long to show.

Mute message
I hope there's a feature where I can choose whether to notify the recipient or participants in a thread when sending a post. This is because sending messages might occur during non-working hours or when the recipient is taking a break. Simply put, the purpose is to avoid disturbing the other person.
Some common practices currently involve scheduling messages to be sent at a future time. However, this means having to constantly reconfigure each message.
Having a feature that allows messages to be sent quietly, without triggering notifications to the recipient, would be relatively convenient and user-friendly. Nevertheless, even messages…

Discard "New Messages" annotation by pressing Esc
The "New Messages" annotation stays on even when the chat continues/the message is answered. I would prefer if it disappears when I answer, or if that is on purpose to at least have the possibility to discard the annotation by pressing the Esc button.

Please, add custom notification sounds.
Now we have 6 built-in notification sounds, I and my team like none of them.
One has to disable notifications sounds instantly, because of the annoying bing and there is no option to change it to something more unobtrusive.

Custom user groups with rights management
I would like to be able to define custom user groups and manage their rights (channels they can access, ...) through these groups.
That way when a new member joins, I can assign them to the group(s) and their rights will be automatically set correctly.
TLDR : Custom groups management like how discord handles roles11 votes -
@group request function for boards
In boards, there is a function to put an @username in the comments section which will notify the user their action is required on that board. However the board does not allow you to @usergroup or a specific channel. I am requesting 2 possible functions. 1. enable the ability to @usergroup so we don't need to @ specific users which may change out often. or 2. enable @ for a specific channel in the comments section of a board to send notifications to a channel that a new/existing board is requesting their attention. This will cut down the inundating task…

Auto SSO/SAML login
In a SSO environment, it would make sense when only one authentication provider is available, to auto redirect the user to the sso provider page, so that you dont have to click on the login button.
In my case, i use keycloak with an active directory and kerberos, so all windows users are automatically logged in with mattermost in autostart if they did not have to click on the button.

Checkbox group as an element for interactive dialog
Hi,
We’re using the interactive dialog and it is wonderful.
However, there’s one interface that would make it perfect: checkbox groups.
Right now checkboxes are independent elements. It would be nice if we could have a checkbox group as an element where we could define the minimum and the maximium number of checkboxes that should be checked on that group.
