Username text color configurable
In the Center Channel area, be able to configure a "Username Text Color" separate from "Center Channel Text" . This could improve readability when using compact mode.

Allow customizing GitLab login button
Currently, the GitLab login button just says "GitLab". It would be helpful to be able to modify it to refer to an organization-specific gitlab instance.

Remove message action popup when selecting text
If someone sends you a long message with text you need to copy, the pop on the right side of Mattermost for replying, reacting to messages, and has "more actions", gets in the way of selecting the text.
This is especially bad when using the compact layout, because it completely obscures the text underneath it. It would be nice if the popup didn't overflow on to messages or at least didn't show up when selecting text.

Provide options for turning off the link previews for specific sites
Currently, we do not want to turn off all link previews (Enable Link Previews: false). Can we get an option for turning off the link previews for specific sites such as Gitlab?
Thanks.

add no reply warning in email template
Hi team and thank you for your work.
We are an organization that runs a Mattermost Team Edition instance which is used by near 6.000 users.
Sometimes, we have users replying directly to email notifications sent by Mattermost. These replies get back to us, and we do not have time to forward it nor to warn the senders that their messages didn't reach the right people.Would that be possible to change email template by adding something like (with french translation, it would be awesome though!):
"Do not reply directly to this email, otherwise people will not get your message"…

Ignore some website link previews
At my work we use a self hosted Mattermost server.
Shared links in chat are roughly 50/50 between:
- Fun, or informative public websites.
- Internal links, often requiring a login.For the first a preview is beneficial. It breaks up the wall of text and gives some quick details. These previews are usually unique.
For the latter a preview is useless. Often showing a login-required text. These previews sometimes take a lot of space, and they you always show the same thing (website title, generic description, logo - sometimes large as a preview photo). Examples are: links to internal…

User name pronounce upload on profile.
according to various national users join to Mattermost instance.
sometimes not sure how to pronounce their name,
(especially, when people use their real name)what if each users available to upload their name pronounce on profile when they create an account.
and people on the same channel with that person can play it? (only when they click pronounce button)
I think it would be convenient for who have Mattermost instance like me.
thank you.7 votes -

Collapsed Reply Threads : enable/disable by channel
Hi,
CRTs are great for organizing conversations and reducing noise on some conversations. But there are some use cases where the old way is better for readability and understanding (e.g. direct messages or channels with a few people).
A good feature would be to enable or disable CRT by channels or direct message. Configuring per user and/or per channel may be relevant.

Display Full User Names in Mobile App (Avoid Truncating with Ellipsis)
Hi Team,
I’ve noticed that on the Mattermost mobile app (iOS), user names are often truncated and displayed as “Kim…” instead of showing the full name, even though the full name appears correctly on the web version. This makes it difficult to identify users, especially in organizations where many people have similar names.
Please enhance the mobile app UI so that full user names are always visible, or at least provide an option to expand or view the full name easily. Ideally, the display should be consistent with the web version, either by wrapping the text, allowing horizontal scrolling, or…

Timer for channels
Add a timer - like an egg clock.
"I set the timer on this channel to 15minutes, and when its over, @channel gets a notification to stop their tasks and message the results here"
"Ok, everybody brainstorm this idea until the channel timer bleeps"
"Scrum meeting is delayed 30 minutes, I set up a timer so you dont miss the start of it"

Support connecting with IRC clients
Mattermost should support regular IRC clients. A bridge require you to host an entire separate IRC server just for a couple of IRC clients, unless you want to give control to an IRC network. In addition, a bridge per definition is hackish. People speaking are not in the userlist, private messages are impossible etc.

mailgun as mail manager
Propose to use mailgun (an email service for developers) as an alternative to the SMTP server. The open-source blog platform ghost uses it and it is very easy to configure (instead of a whole server mail to install and secure).

Treat post selection as a reply
It is a constant struggle to keep all relevant messages associated to a thread. People don't see the reply icon or understand its significance. I'm not sure how to best solve that whole problem, but it'd help to make the concept of a reply more prominent if selecting a post is the equivalent of clicking the arrow icon.

Slash commands progress indicator
Mattermost should have a way of showing that a slash command was executed, and awaiting response. At the moment you have no way of knowing if your command was sent out or not until a potential response arrives. For slow services this is raither tedious as you begin doubting if the message was sent or not, and might end up sending it multiple times.

Simplify chatbot integration by enabling bots to run sandboxed, in-process on the server
Currently if I want any sort of 'bot' behavior, I need to:
- Get an API token (ask an admin for permission)
- Stand up a server or learn serverless
- Figure out deployments/monitoring/logging
To test my code, I need to expose my in-progress work to the internet so it can receive webhooks.
This is a substantial bar to clear, resulting in monolithic projects like Hubot with many plugins.
Organizations implementing this style of bot frequently have only a handful of people who know how to contribute to it.
An alternative would be to support 'Managed bots': custom code (language TBD; javascript (via…
