  1. Teammate name display selections

    Would it be possible to add custom selection of username, nickname and full name to teammate name display? This would make it possible to use combinations like John Doe (Johnny-boy) or John Doe (johnd).

  2. Add option to set Avatar size

    Currently the avatar size is around 32px.

    My test users are hoping it could be bigger so as to recognize people easily.

    I did a local test and increasing the size to 50px+ would not affect the layout and is indeed easier to find people.

  5. Create an editable message ('wikipost')

    Our team documents project features by posting and re-editing posts. (They can then be flagged, or in future, made sticky, to keep them at hand.)

    What would be useful here is to make a post that I choose to allow others to edit, in a wiki or confluence-style.

  6. Improve customization of push notification messages

    Currently push notifications have very limited customizing potential. There is support to provide localized content, but the code assumes always prepends the sender's name to the notification text.

  7. Show the channel the incoming webhook has been set to

    Currently I cannot find a way to know for which channel has been configured an incoming webhook (in my case, for integration with GitLab).

    In the "Integrations/Incoming Webhooks" section, just appear the name of the webhook and the webhook URL it self, without saying for which channel has been set, and the option of deleting it. And in the GitLab side there's no way to know for which channel will be triggered the hook.

    This come become a problem when you have several webhooks and channels.

  8. filter channels/users in the sidebar

    It would be fantastic to have the option to search/filter in the sidebar.
    In big organizations where you talk to many people, sometimes the sidebar gets enormous. A search field in top of the sidebar will allow to filter it and also search (when pressing Return)

    It "should" keep the headers (favorites, channels, users) to keep it simple.

  9. List the 10 most recent channels/users in the Switch Channels view

    Without typing anything, one should be able to select a previous user or channel from the Switch Channels view (Command+K). They should also be listed in chronological order (from most to least recent)

  11. Away Status Configuration

    Just to expand on the original idea located here:

    https://mattermost.uservoice.com/forums/306457-general/suggestions/17128663-configurable-away-time

    Auto-away should at least be configurable in terms of minutes, or an option should exist to disable it completely. These settings should exist per user, but I'm not sure how much value it would add if the administrator determines the configuration for the team.

  12. open the emoji picker with typing ":", followed by pressing Tab

    I'd really like to see the emoji picker that can be activated as described in the title, instead of the ":" followed by minimum of 2 characters as it is at the moment.
    I'm aware of the full picker ticket https://mattermost.atlassian.net/browse/PLT-2354, but as i understand it doesn't include this feature.

  13. resize image upload

    Fist important use of mattermost is sharing picture.
    We need to upload a smarphone picture with a good resize for not explode server hard drive. (picture management is not easy with history)

    For example when we upload a picture, a menu ask:
    Choose size upload:
    - original size (~4mB)
    - full hd (800 kB)
    - 1024px (200 kB)
    (we can use mozjpeg lib)

    Resize coulb be on the sever or on the app, but it's necessary.

    This feature is not on slack and i don't understand WHY.

    Currently the web interface has no option to increase the font size. This is plainly silly. Please fix this ASAP.

  16. Switch channels between different teams

    It is not possible to use ctrl+k to switch to a channel or private group in another team.
    Why is this restricted? I don't think it is a good idea to force the user to use their mouse. This is not very productive.

  17. Change email notification behavior

    Right now, if I only use the browser and switch to different tabs my status changes from green to yellow. If someone sends me a direct message, I receive an email. That's annoying. I don't want to disable email notification as a whole. It makes much more sense to only send emails about messages I received while I was offline.

  18. Make switch channel more intuitive

    If I open the switch channel dialog and begin to type the beginning of a name for which several entries exist, then this list is ordered alphabetically and does not take into account open chats with people.

    This feature is only useful if you want to speed up navigation. I expect the dialog to show open chats before others so you dont have to navigate in the list to select the correct entry.

  19. Restore should be in Team edition or Channel delete in Team edition should be permanent

    If i delete a channel i cannot create a new one with same name. nor can i restore the previous channel without enterprise edition.

    I suggest to move feature of restoring to Team edition. Alternatively make channel deletions permanent so another channel with same name can be created.

  20. Release RPM packages for those on rpm-based systems

    I recently switched to fedora and now i can't install the mattermost desktop app using rpm - because there's no rpm package.

    Thus I suggest you also release a rpm package (thanks to electron-builder this should be a pretty easy task)
