  1. Send E-Mail using Slash Command

    We are using a e-mail-based ticket system (e.g., ticketsupport@company-name.org). As most of our communication switched to Mattermost, the only remainder is writing mails to create a ticket.
    Therefore, it would be really convenient to send a e-mail using something like:
    /[mail-address] ["Subject"] ["Body"]
    The from address is the address used by Mattermost.

  2. Easier method for allowing admins to include custom themes

    Currently deploying a Mattermost instance with custom themes (for instance, company-branded colours) requires manually patching https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-webapp.

    Admins should be able to deploy Mattermost and specify custom themes in place of the existing ones (or an addition to the existing ones) without having to patch mattermost-webapp. This could be done in a number of ways (e.g. configuration or being stored in the database), but should persist across version upgrades.

    Additionally it would be ideal if admins could specify the default theme for users, as well as having full control over the list of themes available.

    I've created https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server/issues/16658 in reference…

  4. Allow user registration in mobile app

    With 2021 and all the discussions on online privacy and their violations thereof by the big corporations going on, Mattermost has become all the more important.

    It is disheartening to see that the mobile app still does not have the ability to register users.

  5. Use the setAppBadge API

    Show the count of unread messages/notifications as a badge in browsers that support it. Installing Mattermost as a PWA would be closer to native apps if it used the setAppBadge/clearAppBadge APIs.

  6. Allow administrators to set emoji aliases

    I've run in to several emoji that use a non-standard name in Mattermost, which I've found to be very confusing. One prime example is that the "party popper" emoji (as it's known on many other platforms) is called "tada" in Mattermost. I'd love to be able to set an alias of party_popper for this.

  9. Delete channels

    Hello,

    I would like to have the possibility that channels whether private or public can be permanently deleted by system administrators.
    So you can save resources in the database and keep a better overview of the remaining channels.

  10. Checkbox group as an element for interactive dialog

    Hi,

    We’re using the interactive dialog and it is wonderful.

    However, there’s one interface that would make it perfect: checkbox groups.

    Right now checkboxes are independent elements. It would be nice if we could have a checkbox group as an element where we could define the minimum and the maximium number of checkboxes that should be checked on that group.

  11. Give users a choice between Message Bubble and Message Lines (Current) like Element gives

    In Element, they have option to choose how messages are being displayed.

    1. Message Bubble
    2. Message without Bubble (They call it Modern)

    Not everyone is a fan of Modern Design, especially legacy people.

  12. Absolute dates display

    Currently, Mattermost only supports relative dates display. However, there should be a feature that allows users to configure absolute dates display individually.

    This functionality would improve the readability of posted messages, reduce human errors, and facilitate smoother communication and management.

  13. To use an Access Token to login at the Mobile app

    I see that the access token is only for the API, but I wonder if at some point it would be possible to use the access token to access the mobile app? and thus avoid using the password (or in my case keycloak credentials) on the smartphone.

    Thanks

  14. Expose message edit histories

    If users are given the ability to edit their messages, it is useful, at least for moderators and admins, to be able to see what their previous messages were. This is so that disputes between users can be resolved, where a user responds to a message that is subsequently edited to change the context and meaning of the response.

  15. Don't show 'More' channels if none are available

    Currently, the channel list will show 'More...' as the last item in the list.

    If there are no further channels created in the team, then this item performs no function other than to confuse users. New channels are obviously created by using the '+' icon at the top of the channel list.

  16. Ability to export all of a specific user's content when required for compliance

    From: https://github.com/mattermost/platform/issues/2291

    In corporate environments it is sometimes necessary on legal grounds to check an employees communication. Usually the management asks the IT therefor to deliver ones communication. Currently an administrator is neither able to view the existing private chats from any user nor is there an export function to extract all users content from the database

  19. 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.
