  1. Unread marker "time machine"

    It would be nice to be able to "go back in time" when it comes to "unread posts". I have not studied in detail how MM keeps track of this, but I'm guessing a "last seen postId" or a "last seen postDate" or something similar. Anything greater than this is "unread". Anyway, what I would like to see is a way to "undo" or "go back in time" on nn unread states.

    Say I login today, I have 33 unread/new messages. But I want to go back to the "unread count" I had the last time I logged in before…

  2. Add support for using channel_id in the URL instead of channel_handle

    Right now you can link to a channel using the following URL

    https://my-mattermost-server.com/teamname/channels/channel_handle

    However, if the channel handle is changed, the link gets broken.

    This feature proposal adds support for using channel_id the URL instead, which doesn't change. Example:

    https://my-mattermost-server.com/channels/channel_id

  3. Delete an user's private conversations

    In some cases we need to delete all private conversations from an old user but without deleting the user (so it doesn't break continuity in public conversations).
    We use an SQL query:
    SELECT DISTINCT Name FROM Channels INNER JOIN
    (SELECT Id FROM Users WHERE Username LIKE 'Foo')
    sub ON Name LIKE concat('%', sub.Id, '%');
    Then "platform channel delete" to delete the channels.

    But it would be much easier to have a CLI command that does this.

  4. Private message with authorized members only

    Hi, (I am new to this forum but I have installed Mattermost in my organization)

    Is it possible to add a new choice in the administrative console in the option “Allow users to open private message channels with” to request permission to create private messages with members who use the platform.

    Currently, the configuration choices are:

    All members of the team
    Any user on the Mattermost server
    and I would like to add :

    Only authorized members
    To prevent all members from communicating privately without prior notice

    Is it a good idea ?

  5. calculator

    In google search, when you prefix a search with "=", it automatically runs the search as a maths calculation. It would be great to have this in mattermost as well.
    So if a message starts with a "=" and does not contain other text, it should be postfixed with the result of the calculation.

  7. Interactive action buttons

    Since Interactive Action Buttons are supported (4.2) it would be nice to support different button styles like in Slack and emoticons as text replacement for the buttons. I think this could enhance the overal look and feel of this new feature.

  9. add anchors to /help/* docs

    Many "normal" users have problems writing markdown when chatting.
    For example, my friend don't know how to add "In-line Images".
    So, I want to send him a link to "In-line Images" section at https://chat.ohze.net/help/formatting
    But I can't because "In-line Images" is not an anchor like, ex https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#stage-1-pm-review (auto added by github for headings in a markdown document)

  10. List of Flagged Posts in Mobile Application

    It would be a good idea in mobile application to have a button that list of flagged post in channel details. To see a flagged post, it would be very difficult to seek all posts earlier.
    Thanks in advance.

  11. unicode emoji to support chinese character custom emoji names

    Current behavior: User interface won't allow me to give Chinese names to emoji.

    Requested behavior:
    - Allow naming of custom emoji with Chinese characters
    - User be able to type :你好: and have the mapped custom emoji show up in chat

    Notes:
    George Goldberg suggested to enable full unicode support for custom emoji names rather than just ascii. https://pre-release.mattermost.com/core/pl/ce5wkyq1w7drxd55mjy38c1apo

  12. windows people

    Summary
    Microsoft now supports pinning conversations within applications to the taskbar through what they call the My People API:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/contacts-and-calendar/my-people-support

    It looks like it primarily supports windows store apps/c#, so it might not be possible to do with electron/node. It's also OS-specific, which isn't really beneficial to the app as a whole.

  13. Handle old browsers more gracefully

    Mattermost does not work on some old browsers (e.g. Android 4.2: https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server/issues/8825).
    I don't expect the team to support these legacy browsers but currently it only displays a blank page, which can be confusing for users.

    It would be nice if Mattermost could display an user-friendly error message when the browser is not supported.

  14. Restore a deleted channel

    We would like to be able to restore deleted channels. One of which this can be done is to have a trash box of all deleted channels, of which we can restore back to in case we would like to reopen it.

  16. Interactive Message links/flat-buttons

    I really like the interaction message buttons!
    https://docs.mattermost.com/developer/interactive-message-buttons.html

    I am trying to clone the /remind functionality in Slack into Mattermost, and the button interactions are working well, but the links to 'delete', 'Close list', 'view completed items', etc do not have an equivalent in Mattermost. (For now I am going to perhaps have buttons for these though it's not as flexible as I'd like)

  17. Proxy third-party http requests through Mattermost server

    It would be very useful if http/s requests from Mattermost clients (web,desktop,mobile) to third party sites (for example analytics calls via js) could be optionally proxied through the Mattermost server itself. In restrictive environments these calls to third parties are often blocked by local security software, causing errors in the client.

  19. API rate limiting whitelist

    It would be really helpful to be able to specify a whitelist of IPs or accounts that can bypass the API rate limit. For instance, I use the API to batch-create lots of user accounts, which generates a high volume of requests. Yet, I don't want to allow such a big volume for any user account/IP address, just for sysops and localhost. Would this be possible?

  20. Notificiation settings per server

    If using Mattermost with more than one Server it would be great if the user could have separate notification settings or the option to mute one or more selected servers.
