  1. Be able to prepend * to search

    Either i am misunderstanding something or the search function is currently subpar. One can append * to search terms, ie searching for foo* will return bar. But *bar does not return foobar. It should imo.

    Furthermore, * does not seem to account for anything other than alphanumeric characters. I was expecting http* to return all links, but no.

    Stellar app otherwise!

  2. Improve Team Notification with multiple teams

    When Users are in multiple teams, it is at the moment hard to see in which team are unread messages. There is just a small dot near the team and that is hard to recognize.

    When you got a mention, Mattermost is adding a dot with a number on the team.

    I suggest to use this dot for mentioning but just without the number for improving the visibility of unread messages without mentions.

  3. Create the option to show the entire message in notifications.

    It would be great if I can enable the option to show the entire message in notifications. Currently only the beginning of the message is passed to notification system.

  5. zoom inside picture

    Hello,
    I think it could be a really good idea to have the possibility to zoom inside shared picture. Sometimes it's too small, we need to download it and then zoom inside it.

    thanks

  6. Galera cluster support

    Galera cluster provides multi master SQL database (e.g. upon MariaDB or MySQL) and can help strengthen the database backend. As it easy to deal with mattermost-server outages (simply run another instance very quickly), it is mostly painfull to deal with single DB outage.

    Galera cluster can be supported in a direct way - add all db nodes to the configuration and use it in balanced way or as a fallback - or can be used via haproxy or similar.

  7. include message metadata in webhook/slash http requests to help tell bot messages apart from human messages

    It is currently not possible for a webhook/slash command webservice (a bot) to tell whether a message came from another bot (or this bot) or from a human.

    See also the GitHub discussion: https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server/issues/9719#issuecomment-438320149

    Summary:

    Even though it is usually possible to set the displayed username to an arbitrary value when programmatically creating a post, this username is ignored when the created message is sent out via a webhook, leaving a lot of opportunity for loops.

    There are 4 ways new messages (posts) can be created:
    - Human types them
    - Incoming Webhook
    - Outgoing Webhook bot response.
    - API…

  8. Configurable desktop notifications duration

    Mattermost is intended to be team collaboration and messaging tool.
    It functions fine when working with channels which are similar to forums or IRC channels.

    But when sending direct messages, the user experience is quite bad because desktop notifications disappear after 5 seconds and when user is concentrating to something else or is AFK he will miss the notification and doesn't know that someone is trying to reach him.

    It would be great if there was a configuration option where user can choose how long the notification should be displayed.

    This feature was already implemented in v3.4, but was removed…

  11. Support moving channel without adding all members to new team first

    Currently when moving a channel with CLI you must first manually add all users to new team. The CLI should automatically add missing users to new team when moving channel.

  12. add or remove people from a group message

    Sometimes, you start a Group Message and realize later that you need to add a new person to the conversation, or remove someone from the conversation.

    Currently, there is no way to add/remove someone from a conversation. A new Group conversation has to be started, but all of the previous discussion details are lost, or have to be copied and pasted, one at a time, into a new Group conversation.

    Please add the ability to add/remove people to/from an existing Group Message.

  13. Interactive buttons supporting emoji

    If the text outside the interactive button is an emoji, eg. ":smile:", it gets rendered as the smile emoji. However, if this text is inside an interactive button, the test ":smile:" gets rendered.

    Similarly when dealing with "£" signs, "£" renders correctly outside the button, but inside just the text is rendered.

    It would be good if emoji and other HTML shortcuts could be implemented within the buttons themselves.

  15. Make log file reading easier

    The timestamp within the log is now Unix Timestamp. This makes it really hard to find the right logs when there is a issue.

    Please implement a option to change to a human readable time. I suggest the UTC timestamp. Dateformat can be fix of should better be looking for the server values.

    Now:
    {"level":"debug","ts":1540975612.3137412,"caller":"web/handlers.go:50","msg":"POST - /api/v4/users/status/ids"}

    Better:
    {"level":"debug","ts":10/31/2018 8:46am,"caller":"web/handlers.go:50","msg":"POST - /api/v4/users/status/ids"}

    Optimal (i am in europe):
    {"level":"debug","ts":31.10.2018 8:46,"caller":"web/handlers.go:50","msg":"POST - /api/v4/users/status/ids"}

    Best regards

  16. Add a command /play to play sound, movies quotes, etc.

    We use Mattermost in a small team and when it comes the time to chill out, we sometimes abuse of the #random channel
    We loved the emoticon customization and we would love to see the possibility to send a sound to react to a message with the right movie quote for example.

    That could be a plugin with a command like /play, I just doubt that the plugin would have the right to play a sound in browser.

    The sound (and the command) could be created by users just like emoticons. The user should have to upload a sound file…

  17. Prompt email-based accounts to re-auth using LDAP during migration period

    Our organization wishes to use the new bulk export tool to migrate teams and users from our pilot server. This server used email-based accounts, and we are now using LDAP authentication on the new Enterprise server.

    All of these accounts should have LDAP, but were created using email addresses that do not always map. We want users to be able to log in once with their old email authentication, then be prompted to log in again using their LDAP credentials.

  18. add multiple channel selection for incoming webhook

    System users should be able to add multiple channels instead of one channel. We have users that are creating several individual webhooks for the same hook. Is there a way to add multiple selection when setting up an incoming webhook? This will allow an easier way to set this up.

  19. make Shift-Up select from the list of recent messages to reply to

    Currently Shift-Up allows for a quick reply to the latest message, but what if someone just said something and the one you want is no longer the latest?

    Repeated presses could move up through the message history, allowing to reply to a message that isn't the latest.

    Likewise, Shift-Down (currently unused) could move down the list (and, optionally, all the way back to the main input field like Ctrl-Shift-L)

  20. Add notification timeout option

    I've seen other thing saying there is a timeout option for notifications but I'm not seeing one in the Linux desktop app. Should it be there? If not, I'd really like a way to make the notifications to be persistent until I interact with them or Mattermost.
