  1. add functionality for a seperate sound for direct messages/mentions

    I would like to have the option of selecting different sounds for regular message notifications and direct message/mentions notifications, as I am not always near my laptop but am able to hear it, and would like to know audibly if a message was sent in a general chat or to me directly.

  2. Keep "recently read" channels on top, like unread

    I find the feature where channels with unread messages are in an UNREAD category that's above my FAVORITES to be very helpful and useful. I often have a few such channels at any one time, and I often read and answer them all at about the same time, switching between them.
    The problem is that, as soon as I read through or respond to one channel, it is no longer UNREAD, and so leaves that topmost category. Often I want to respond with an additional line of text, or make an edit -- but now it's difficult to find that…

  3. "remember previous url"

    Whenever app login expires, user is taken all the way back to the 'Enter server URL' screen.

    It would be a really nice touch if the mobile app would pre-fill the last-used URL, meaning the user has to remember one less thing when away from their normal work computer.

  4. Display local time of person you're messaging above text box

    Like slack has, would be better to display the local time of the person you're messaging, as we have people on our server from over 4 different time zones

  6. Message button in profile if opened in direct message channel

    I am in a private conversation with user 'A' and mention a user 'B'.
    We can open the profile of User 'B' but there is no message button to open a direct chat.
    In a channel this feature already exists, so it should be also possible to do this in a private conversation

  8. Increase notification sound length for sound over HDMI speakers

    All notification sounds are too short. On my PC I use sound over HDMI to my monitor speakers. It takes about a second to establish the connection. In that time the sound is already played. If I listen very carefully, I only hear some noise for about a second or two before the sound connection is closed again. But some hardly to hear noise doesn't draw my attention.
    This might also be a problem with sound over Bluetooth?

  10. Message Forwarding Control in Mattermost

    Currently, users cannot forward messages to others in Mattermost. It would be helpful if system admins could control this feature — either allow or restrict forwarding globally or between selected users. This would improve usability while keeping communication secure and flexible.

  11. Add ESR URLs to the latest version redirects

    The list of URLs at https://latest.mattermost.com/ that redirect to current Mattermost software is great. Doing an HTTP HEAD request on any of them shows the current semantic version in the Location header, great for checking for patch updates.

    For some reason, ESR versions are not listed there. It would be very helpful for sysadmins if your list also had these:
    https://latest.mattermost.com/mattermost-enterprise-esr-linux
    https://latest.mattermost.com/mattermost-team-esr-linux
    which could redirect to the versions marked as Extended Support Release on https://docs.mattermost.com/about/version-archive.html

  12. Option to Disable Channel Sorting Based on User Join/Leave Activity

    I would like to propose an enhancement to the current channel sorting functionality. Specifically, I would suggest making it possible to sort channels based on activity, while excluding user join/leave events from influencing the sorting order.

    The current activity-based sorting is useful for keeping active conversations easily accessible. However, frequent user join/leave events can also cause channel reordering, which may lead to unnecessary disruption, especially in larger teams or public channels where such events are frequent.

  13. Show Emoji's in Recent Mentions Sidebar

    I use Emoji Reactions to indicate to others if their messages have been actioned - usually a little green check mark.

    If a message is for me specifically to action, I tend to save it and use that saved messages sidebar as a sort of "to-do" list. If I react to a message, that emoji shows up in my saved list and I can then make sure I un-save it.

    This behaviour doesn't seem to be replicated in the Recent Mentions view. It would be good if that view included reaction emoji's, so I can quickly glance to see I've…

  15. Display option to add a click count next to embedded links

    Similar to how discourse (https://forum.mattermost.org/) tracks the number of clicks on a link.

    Proposed spec:

    1) Add Team Setting > Display > Advanced Message Display Options

    Title: Advanced Message Display Options

    Help text: "Advanced options for message display."

    [ ] Show count of clicks next to hyperlinks in messages.

    2) If zero clicks have been made on a link, show no indicator.

  17. allow per-user settings for showing links inline or not, ideally per content type

    from https://github.com/mattermost/platform/issues/1983, While it can be nice to have links to images, youtube videos, etc. that display inline autoexpand to the media that they link to, it would be extremely useful to have a way to turn that off, so that you just get a link instead of losing a massive amount of chat because of the inline media block.

  18. Adding the posting user to the post markup, to enable filtering

    posted in http://forum.mattermost.org/t/marking-posts-with-the-user-who-posted-it/912, was told to post it here instead:

    I've been playing with mattermost a bit and noticed that posts are not currently marked as having been posted by a specific user - the only element inside a post that identifies the poster is the UserProfile component deep inside the post component tree, so it would be very nice if a component tagged its top with a class like "post__wrapper " for easy chat log filtering: some things that this would unlock:

    • hard/soft ignore lists
    • hard/soft 'never miss...' lists
    • hiding everyone-but-X posts to find information in the backlog

  19. email notifications for new messages and for channel joins look alike and have a similar email notification subject

    This behaviour leads to that one could not see at first sight which type of message the notification was for, because the email subject is always "New Mention on...".
    It would be more informating and appropriate to choose a email subject that makes clear at first sight which kind of mention the notification is about. (channel join, user disabling, mention, etc)
    In my opinion a channel join is no mention in sense of a new message. There is a difference between a new message and other System activities and this should be clear withing the notification email.
    Maybe ist reasonable…

  20. include a Trace option in the logging modes.

    We were having an issue that was causing Mattermost to continually crash for no apparently reason. Nothing was consistent in the log files, debug didn't give enough information, heck I even did an strace on the PID and wasn't able to get anything useful. A Trace option should include DB calls, perhaps a transaction ID to link the API call to the DB call...
