  1. Add quote reply in addition to collapsed threads

    Currently, in order to reply to someone a few messages back, you hit the reply button and it goes into a thread. Alternatively, Mattermost could add a quote button on messages next to the reply button. When you click quote button it should work like reply in modern messengers with text of the message or part of it and name of the creator of the message.
    Threads are useful, but creating them for replying to paticular messages can be a bit of an overkill.

  2. Get a notification for reactions

    Anytime someone put a reaction (emoji) on a text you wrote, you are not notified.
    Very anoying.

  3. Ability to “Also send to channel” inside a thread

    As we are starting to use threads more, it would be nice to keep the channel updated when important updates are made in threads.

    Slack solves this problem by adding a checkbox that says “Also send to channel” inside a thread. Would love to see a similar approach.

  4. Threads: Proposal for additional usability and readability Option

    Dear Team,
    thanks for the awesome Mattermost App!

    I love threads, and i would like to suggest an additional usability and readability option:

    Background (or "what drives me mad"):
    Everybody knows the flow of conversations, they have the tendency to get unstructurized and important threads of messages get "buried" below new incoming messages in the parent channel.
    Also People sometimes dont answer in threads, either they dont want to use threads, or they accidently answer in the parent channel.
    This makes things more than often confusing to follow..

    My Proposal to implement just some options:

    How it works Now:

  5. Change mmctl user to also allows changing the firstname / lastname (aka fullname) as well as the alias

    When using MM with auth providers, in most cases, its not possible to change the user data once a user has been created.

    It would be nice to be able to use

    mmctl user name --firstname Igmar --lastname Palsenberg igmar

    from the cli.

    If we agree, I'll do a PR for the code changes.

  7. Display Nickname or Full Name Based on Settings

    I configured nicknamefullname: true, but the username is still displayed while drafting a chat. This is not user-friendly.
    The same problem also occurs when full_name: true is configured.

    https://docs.mattermost.com/configure/site-configuration-settings.html#teammate-name-display

    I'm Japanese, and Japanese characters cannot be used in usernames. Therefore, displaying only the username is very troublesome for my organization.

  8. Feature Request: Mass unfollow threads

    Mattermost gets laggy when there you are following many threads. To the point that opening the "threads" tab fail to load with timeout errors. See github issues below:
    https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost/issues/23690#issuecomment-2611855763

    This is true to people that have been using mattermost for a while now, we have been using it for 6 years and using collapsible threads since they are in beta.

    Being able to mass unfollow all past threads will fix this.

    I have tried disabling threads in the whole organization and re-enabling it but it didn't remove the follows.

    If there's any backend/sql command i could run that would be…

  9. Give each channel in the sidebar a badge that displays the number of "unread messages" in that channel

    Add an option such that, if a channel has any unread messages, a badge will appear in the sidebar for that channel that indicates the number of unread messages. For my team, there can be a lot of activity across at least a handful of channels. It'd be amazing if a badge could appear next to each channel when there are unread messages so that I know how many there are in that channel. It'd be super helpful for triaging messages. To know if there's a little new activity in that channel, or a ton of new activity that I'm…

  10. Central Server for Mattermost Instances

    All self-hosted Mattermost Servers could be authenticated and coordinated by a central server like hub.mattermost.com.
    For example, I have accounts on chat.rockylinux.org and chat.almalinux.org, as well as two self-hosted servers for our organization.
    I want to add all four to my hub.mattermost.com (or some cool subdomain).
    And once I log in to main.mattermost .com, I get the list of servers on which I have accounts.
    If I have an account on hub.mattermost.com, I do not need to create accounts on all servers.
    The hub.mattermost.com can do the on-boarding and data sharing.
    Something like what discord.com does.

  11. Trigger a notification/webhook when a Playbook task has been assigned to a user

    The only notification of a Playbook task being assigned to a user seems to happens in the daily digest. We'd like to be trigger a notification as that assignment happens either to the Playbook's run channel or via a webhook.

  12. Retrieve Private Channels in Team through API as Team Admin

    If you've found the following limitation through the API where Private Channels in a given Team cannot be listed by a Team Admin due to access restrictions in the API

    "Get Public Channels For Team" API endpoint currently requires permission listteamchannels in order to list Public Channels within a team.
    https://api.mattermost.com/#tag/channels/operation/GetPublicChannelsForTeam

    "Get Private Channels For Team" currently requires permission manage_system in order to list Private Channels within a team. That permission is restricted to System Admins.
    https://api.mattermost.com/#tag/channels/operation/GetPrivateChannelsForTeam

    Per Mattermost Permissions, a manage_system is a permission that is only assigned to System Admins

    As a Team Admin, I…

  13. allow the Late Time Warning to be disabled or modified

    Not everyone works a regular schedule. Constantly being "warned" about messaging someone during their regular work hours could get really annoying. The ability to disable this, or to alter the time(s) that would incur a "warning" should be a relatively low LoE.

  14. Add functionality to automatically add new users to a team

    A lot of new users are unfamiliar with / confused by teams. So they don't select one, and then can't post anything, and an admin has to manually add them. There should be an easy way for all new users to be automatically added to a team.

  15. 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.

  18. MPNS: Introduce token-based authentication to APNs

    https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost/issues/28874

    Currently, push proxy only supports certificate-based connections to APNs. Description is available at https://docs.mattermost.com/deploy/mobile-hpns.html#host-your-own-push-proxy-service

    Token-based authentication to APNs should be used in MPNS: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/usernotifications/establishing-a-token-based-connection-to-apns. Token-based authentication offers a stateless way to communicate with APNs. Stateless communication is faster than certificate-based communication because it doesn’t require APNs to look up the certificate, or other information, related to your provider server. There are other advantages to using token-based authentication.

  19. Thread in multiple channels

    Sometimes you'll have topics which belong to more than one channel. It would be nice, to start a thread on multiple channels and sync all replies to all channels so that nobody has to join additional channels.

  20. 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.
