  1. Add a configurable setting to show count of unread messages, mentions or channels on taskbar

    Original discussion can be found here: https://github.com/mattermost/desktop/issues/111

    Add a configurable setting to show count of unread messages, mentions or channels on taskbar.

    When a message is received, there is small red badge with number of total unread mentions (in the client taskbar icon and the browser tab).

    Proposal is to let the user choose what to count on this badge - any messages, mention and direct messages only or even number of channels with unread messages

  2. Let admins allow anonymous posts / anonymous channels

    A setting that allows users to make anonymous posts. Or that forces all posts in a given channel to be anonymous.

    On a trusted server, this gives users a safe place to make anonymous statements.

    Similar to the "Anonymous posting" feature of Discourse: https://www.discourse.org/about/

    Enable anonymous posting mode and your users can easily switch to anonymous mode to post about controversial, dangerous, or political issues without fear.

  3. New Channel Announcements

    When people create new channels within a team, it would be great to have a popup that shows team members within the channel a screen something like "New Channels created since your last visit, refresh, etc..."

    What we are finding is people are creating new channels within Teams, yet no one knows about them unless they click on the More link within the team.

  4. "Team Directory" - Show Username, Mail, Timezone, Phone Number of other Members

    I like to see information about other Users when I klick their name in the chat. Slack show Username, Mail, Timezone and Phone - I think that's a good start for a simple user profile.
    Users could decide which information they like to make public.

  5. Don't play the notifiaction sound if your phone is muted

    The android app is playing sound, when receiving notifications, even if my phone is on vibration. Probably due to the webview used.

  6. A way to tell web hook is coming from matter most.

    I hate having to have multiple repos, one for slack and one for mattermost. Would be nice if post coming in would tell me it's coming from mattermost.

  7. Support for older Android version - starting from 4.0+

    Android 4.4 is to high requirement. Slack app support also older Android versions, why Mattermost can't? 4.0+ would be reasonable.

  9. Make search results accessible via a URL

    It would be handy if search results were dereferencable via a URL.

    Not all communications in our org are done via MatterMost (email is still popular) and I would like the ability to link to search results via a URL such as https://mattermost.org.com/search/search-term

    This would enable me to refer to (ever-changing) search results from places external to MatterMost.

  10. Add a one-click action to create a new snippet

    Like Slack, being able to create a snippet by clicking a button and choose from a droplist the language would be far less painful than typing ``` (especially for non-qwerty keyboards).

    It would be more intuitive especially for coders who discover the platform. Thanks!

  11. Use a different color thread bar for different threads

    When there are multiple threads going on in the same channel, all lines are prefixed by a grey vertical bar. The only way to separate the threads is to read the reference message. If the vertical bars had different colors (randomly selected), it would be easy to at a glance see which messages belongs to which threads.

  12. Auto/Periodic Refresh of Channel Header

    Some users find themselves navigating through multiple channels quite frequently; while others find themselves "squatting". My team happens to be full of the those that squat largely because we use one channel per project, and one build per project. We'd like to include the build shield/badge images into the header (which is currently possible); however, since the channel header is never refreshed, individuals must rely solely on messages within the channel to bring the current build status to their attention.

    Either adding an auto-refresh to all channel headers, or allowing administrators to selectively enable a channel header for periodic update/refresh…

  15. Improve team viewing

    If I am a member of multiple teams I can't see all the chats in one place. I need to switch between teams to use them. It would be much better if I could see all channels/chats for all my teams on one screen.

    Perhaps this could be achieved by having a collapsable menu for each team on the left that contains all the existing team specific functionality like channels etc. This would also help improve the notifications when receiving messages from multiple teams.

  16. global/common channel across teams

    Add the ability for teams to share "global" channels.

    We have multiple teams but have a need for a common channel across all teams.

  17. Add actual permanent deletion - on database AND filesystem level

    It would be really, really cool, if one would be able to delete content permanently.

    The problem is that currently the mattermost installation will grow indefinitely.

    The idea is to allow system admins (or "./platform"-access) to clean storage and database.
    Selectively: delete all "deleted" files, delete all "deleted" messages.

    Currently you can delete users and teams permanently.
    (leaving their filesystem stuff)
    Which basically just needs some little extension.

    Also add some information for sysadmins on how much filesystem storage is currently in use (+used by deleted files) and add an option that warns sysadmins if the set number of GB…

  18. Extract GIF from Giphy links

    When posting a link to a Giphy page (e.g. http://giphy.com/gifs/power-rangers-morphin-OOZLyBA9Euq2I), it would be nice if Mattermost could automatically display the GIF below the post.
    (It works if you post the direct link to the .gif file but most users won't do that.)

  19. Channels gathering by theme

    In my team we start to have a lot of channels.
    Some are only for bots telling us the when the database is backed of when someone push on the git.

    It could be nice to gather them by theme like "automation" or "tasks"...

    Someone suggested to add tags to channels, it's something similar I guess.
