Dismiss a direct group messaging
We created a group chat of up to 7 people, but when we finished the group chat, we can't dismiss the group. Group members can only remove the group from the private channel, and can not dismiss the group. Other members can still see the group and send messages. The removed group will appear in the private channel again when other member send a message.
I hope that the creator of the group chat can dismiss the group, and all members of the group will leave the group after the dissolution.23 votes -
Auto converted date time
In cases of a international team managing time zone is often difficult. It would be great if Mattermost supported some kind of timezone conversion. A user can choose his timezone in settings and when posting dates or times in a chat, a special syntax, probably something along the lines of (12:00 PM) would be required. The clients will auto convert the time to local users timezone while displaying. This could be an opt-in feature.

Include private channels to search based on current user membership
Make Mattermost API channels search method
( /teams/{team_id}/channels/search )
to include private channels where the current user is a member.E.g. if the user A is a member of channel B and user A performs channel search, it will get channel B in a response from server if B matches the term.
In Mattermost 5.5.0 search returns only public channels in results. The only way to find channel by display name is to get all channels current user is a member of and iterate over them on client side.

Video File Thumbnails
Just like we have tumbnails on pictures. helping us identify what we are looking for without having to open the preview tool.

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!

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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…

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.

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.

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.

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
