  1. Filtering webhooks to process every post

    I'd like to code up support for specifying remote filters that would get to process every post. When a post is sent to the server, it would get passed to the processing service(s), which would return a potentially modified message to get saved/displayed. It would also potentially trigger an incoming webhook that might add follow-on information. The specification of the "filtering webhooks" would be similar to that of outgoing webhooks. Would anyone else be interested in this?

  2. Ability to customize the site favicon

    When a user interacts with several Mattermost instances having always the same favicon can get highly confusing.

    With versions pre-3.0 it was fairly easy to directly change the favicon files on the installation. It looks way more complex since the 3.0 came out as the file names are no longer predictable

  3. Support gitlab avatar

    When a user signup using gitlab sso, it would be nice if mattermost imports the avatar image as the user's profile picture.

  7. Provide an option to show the amount of new messages in a channel

    Actually we can see our amout of new mention in a channel, is it possible to do same thing with new messages ?

    I think the bold text for new messages isn't visible enough, with a sort of buble like mentions it can be more visible.

  10. Automatically delete the oldest attachments when approaching a set storage limit

    If I have a 20GB server instance, and we're posting big files all the time, we'll hit that pretty quickly. If we hit it, the server will slow down and start rejecting uploads or having errors. Instead, I should be able to set it to limit the total attachment storage to, say, 15gb, and it should aim to stay under that by deleting the oldest stuff.

  11. Noification through Taskbar blink for new messages

    There are instances when I am away from my PC and when I come back, I want my attention to be pulled to mattermost if I have new messages. A taskbar blink on new messages will do that.
    Now I have to remember to open mattermost every once in a while, which you tend to forget when you are busy with other work.

  12. Add custom user groups for mentions

    Add cusom user groups for mentions. Something like @developers or @frontend to mention all members of group in this channel. Also it would be useful for large teams, when novices does not know who is who - with this feature they can determinate at least group

  13. Make Up Arrow behavior configurable

    When you press Up Arrow, your expectations of what will happen may differ. A user coming from Slack might expect the current behavior, where you are allowed to edit your last message. A user coming from IRC, however, would like expect to cycle through his last typed messages by pressing Up Arrow one or several times. And there's an existing suggestion that it cycles through slash commands.

    There is only one Up Arrow button, so the best compromise will likely be to make it user configurable. This would of course also depend on the two latter options being implemented.

  14. Display extended message preview on hover

    When you hover a reference to an existing message (such as where one has been quoted in a thread), it would be neat if, when you hover the pointer above the abridged message preview, you could see the full text. This would save a click or two.

  15. Automatically expand permalinked messages

    When you paste a permalink in the channel, it displays as any other
    link. It would be great if these were automatically recognized, and
    expanded with a preview of the message (similar to when you reply to a message), together with the Jump button so you can easily jump to that point in history without reloading the entire tab (or opening a new
    tab).

    Add badge for all unread non-mention messages to sidebar. Something like in skype. Actually it had already implimented, and would probably be merged into main release if a lot of people will be interest in this.

  17. Add user_real_name to outgoing slash commands or webhooks

    An outgoing /slash command from mattermost sends information including the token, userid and username in the POST.

    We would also like to see userrealname in the POST, without having to do another API call.

    For example:

    channelid=cniah6qa73bjjjan6mzn11f4ie&
    channel
    name=town-square&
    command=/somecommand&
    responseurl=not+supported+yet&
    team
    domain=someteam&
    teamid=rdc9bgriktyx9p4kowh3dmgqyc&
    text=hello+world&
    token=xr3j5x3p4pfk7kk6ck7b4e6ghh&
    user
    id=c3a4cqe3dfy6dgopqt8ai3hydh&
    username=freddy
    user
    real_name=Fred+Smith

  18. Preinstalled "matter-bot"

    I´m just stealing the idea from slack ;)

    I would like to see a simple bot that I can configure much like the "Slack Bot" (https://get.slack.help/hc/en-us/articles/202026038-Slackbot-your-assistant-notepad-programmable-bot)

    This is a great and simple way to get started with bots!

  19. Message automatic deletion a la snapchat

    I'm trying Mattermost on a large organization as a professional communication tool surrounding but not overlapping formal previous communication tools that will remain (email, business specific tools, etc). To achive that, Mattermost messages are meant to be sended/received, read, and then expire and dissapear. We don't need a new static, searchable communication tool (yet on steroids), but a volatile one in order to support teams internal dynamics, but not to remain logged.
    I've thougth of a sort of bot checking times been read or time from post on every message and deleting on checking pre-defined conditions, but this would be…

  20. Enable setup as a Tor hidden service (like XMPP servers)

    Many people use XMPP servers for instant messaging due to it's decentralisation. And many of these providers also have hidden service servers (.onion addresses)

    If Mattermost wants to be competitive with other popular instant messaging programs like XMPP (Jabber) then it needs to allow easy setup of hidden service servers, ideally with a wizard setup installer.
