  1. 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.

  2. 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…

  3. 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.)

  4. 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.

  6. Preprovision native client apps

    As i'm rolling out the native Windows client to a lot of users (via windows software distribution) i'd like to be able to pre-provision the app with our mattermost servers url (and maybe other settings). It would be great if the client would support some way of getting it's initial configuration for example via a config file distributed with it.
    I've posted it to the windows category but i guess this would be nice (and just as easy to implement) on every platform. Mobile apps might be more difficult though.

  7. Use clocks to easily create and view threads

    This feature is really usefull to identify and follow different conversations in a channel.
    When you click on a clock, it adds the clock in the beginning of the post (or at the position of the cursor).
    When you hover on a clock in a post, it highlights the referring post and the answers to this post.

    You can see a demo there : http://sveetch.net/tribune/

  8. Be able to set rules on the creation of the user name

    When a user creates their username it would be good to allow admin to set any rules on this. For example if we want all users to use first.last name then we can set this as required.

  9. Make build process easier

    At the moment you have to configure the build environment to build the package. I'd suggest to create one script which will do the job without any configuration on almost all Linux environments.

  10. Customize search clause for fulltext search

    Currently search clause for fulltext is using "@@" operator for PostgreSQL with tsvector/tsquery. But I would like to use "LIKE" operator with re-generated index for better search using language specific algorithm(e.g. Japanese).

    Now search clause template is "@@ %s". I would like to replace it to "LIKE %s" or "LIKE func(%s)".

  11. Un-push notifications after I actively read all messages

    When I read actively read all messages on a device, the pushed notifications to my other devices should be "un-pushed", meaning they disappear from Android's notification bar and the favicon turns from red to black, for instance.

    Since https://mattermost.uservoice.com/forums/306457-general/suggestions/13834386-option-to-push-notify-to-mobile-even-when-logged-i got implemented (which asked for an option but got implemented as the only possible behavior), each notification must be marked as read on each device separately, which is really time-wasting and distracting.

  13. no character length of name when display is set to "real name"

    Now it is set to 24(?)

    For example "Mansoor Nahasapeemapetilon" would be displayed as "Mansoor Nahasapeemapetil..."

    There is enough space to display the whole name.

  15. GitLab SSO OAuth SSL Client Certificate

    On servers where GitLab+Mattermost are hosted and require SSL client certificates for all connections, Mattermost fails to get a token from GitLab OAuth because its request does not include a client certificate. Please add an option within config.json to include an SSL client certificate within "GitLabSettings" for those requests. Optionally add other SSL-related configurable fields just as CA validation, etc.

  16. CTRL+F on Windows Desktop app puts cursor in Mattermost search box filtered to channel

    In the browser CTRL+F brings up text search for the page, so propose in the Windows Desktop app CTRL+F brings up Mattermost search pre-filtered to the channel to have a similar effect.

    Other than the ability to search a page, the browser and desktop app have almost the same functionality.

    Adding this would make the experiences more equivalent, rather than having desktop just slightly degraded.

  17. Add a Windows universal app so that Windows 10 Mobile rollouts can use Mattermost

    Let's go Windows Universal with this, and bring Mattermost to a whole new market of Windows 10 Mobile users who're waiting for first party apps for apps just like this. Then Mattermost truly becomes a Slack competitor.

  18. Stop sniffing the User-Agent, use feature detection

    The Mattermost web interface uses the User-Agent of the browser, which is a bad idea because browsers can (and do) anyway lie about which browser they are.

    As a matter of fact, right now Mattermost will give a warning (and not work) when e.g. using Epiphany (the GNOME Web browser), but changing the User-Agent does work. Because its engine is WebKit, which makes it to support almost everything that Safari does (and Safari is in the list of supported browsers).

    What Mattermost should do is feature detection. More info at: https://github.com/mattermost/platform/issues/3353#event-703118004

  19. Implement Automatic Right-To-Left (RTL)

    Most popular text editors change the text direction automatically to RTL (Rgiht to Left) when you enter a text in RTL languages such as Persian, Arabic or Hebrew. If that was the case in the Mattermost, we (the RTL language speaking people!) could use Mattermost much more productively, and localization to Farsi, Arabic, etc was possible.

  20. Try to use less CPU / energy in native Mac App

    Right now the Mattermost native Mac app is using a lot of CPU, pretty consistently over 10%, which seems really high for an app of this type. What could it possibly be doing to use that much CPU? The energy impact is almost up there with known battery drainers like Chrome and Firefox. I know it's a beta, so please consider this some beta-user feedback. Thanks!
