  1. Custom tutorial text

    Enable the setting of custom tutorial text for the three tutorial intro screens, with markdown formatting support and preview of the messages to be sent.

    As a secondary priority, enable the setting of different messages based on the preferences of the end user, defaulting to English if no message is set.

    Requesting this because often organizations want to share more about the purpose of their Mattermost deployment, and include different links, e.g. link to naming conventions to use for channels, an internal user's guide to the key features in the system intended to be used, perhaps a video introduction from…

  2. copy existing mattermost token to other teams

    Currently there are many integrations via webhook / slash commands that need a specific token to be set up in the configuration.

    if you want to use the same slash command for several teams its not possible without updating the database manually with the same token you used before in another team.

    the best option would be something like a seperate option to set the generated token id manually, so its possible to use 1 token for 1 integration for all teams that are created in mattermost.

    Did the same manually in the mattermost database, by selecting the commands table…

  3. Markup to directly navigate to the ticket on Redmine, a small overview of the ticket as well.

    Markup to directly navigate to the ticket on Redmine, a small overview of the ticket as well. For example, when I refer to a ticket I use #ticket_no. This could be parsed by the parser and replaced by an href that points to the ticket

  4. Show filenames after dragging a file into a message

    Currently when you drag a file into a message the name of the file isn't shown until you send a message. It would be nice if the filename could be displayed before sending so that you can confirm the right file was dragged in.

  5. smtp authorization support request

    for most small company, there is no ldap servier or sso. but all most have email service, self hosted or saas like google mail.
    if there is a authorization type called smtp authorization like oauth2(google,gitlab...), it will make company helpful more without make another authorization system, bothered with account management.

  6. Offensive Words Filter

    In a professional environment, it would not be polite to allow some kind of language specially in open channels. It would be very useful for admins to handle a small database of words not permitted in their channel and a filter that replaces the "offending words" for symbols or other words defined by them.

  7. Pseudo-random default avatars

    Make the default user's avatars more random. Instead of just being a circle with the first letter of the user's username, use some hashing algorithm to generate some sort of identicons. An idea very popular nowadays (Github, GitLab, Gravatar, Slack, etc)

  8. Context menu on user names or mentions, like "Send Email", "View Profile" and allow integrations

    Clicking on a user mention shows other mentions. But maybe we want to interact with that user in other ways, like sending a message (which should open the private conversation with them), send an email, view profile, etc.
    In addition, we could allow for integration with some other service. For example, integration can be defined as a URL endpoint that can pass/post the username as parameter or request a custom field in the use profile which then can be sent as parameter. For example, let's say we want to integrate with Skype to call the user via Skype. Integration might…

  9. Allow users and passwords to be created from admin console

    While having users create their own accounts as a result of sending an e-mail invite, I'd like to be able to make users and assign them permissions and passwords right from the admin console, without having to configure SSO or drop to a command line.

  10. Add a one-click action to create a new snippet

    Like Slack, being able to create a snippet by clicking a button and choose from a droplist the language would be far less painful than typing ``` (especially for non-qwerty keyboards).

    It would be more intuitive especially for coders who discover the platform. Thanks!

  11. Extract GIF from Giphy links

    When posting a link to a Giphy page (e.g. http://giphy.com/gifs/power-rangers-morphin-OOZLyBA9Euq2I), it would be nice if Mattermost could automatically display the GIF below the post.
    (It works if you post the direct link to the .gif file but most users won't do that.)

  12. Allow restricting GitLab/GitHub SSO user signups to only a particular team

    Near as I can tell, right now if you use the GitLab/GitHub SSO option, any user with an account is able to sign up. It'd be great if there was a way to restrict signups to only users who are members of a particular team.

  13. Customize search clause for fulltext search

    Currently search clause for fulltext is using "@@" operator for PostgreSQL with tsvector/tsquery. But I would like to use "LIKE" operator with re-generated index for better search using language specific algorithm(e.g. Japanese).

    Now search clause template is "@@ %s". I would like to replace it to "LIKE %s" or "LIKE func(%s)".

  14. Use clocks to easily create and view threads

    This feature is really usefull to identify and follow different conversations in a channel.
    When you click on a clock, it adds the clock in the beginning of the post (or at the position of the cursor).
    When you hover on a clock in a post, it highlights the referring post and the answers to this post.

    You can see a demo there : http://sveetch.net/tribune/

  15. Asynchronous uploads (that do not block chatting)

    Right now, when you upload a larger sized file you are blocked from chatting until the upload finishes.

    It would be nice if the upload is handled separately so you can continue sending new chats while the upload is processed. Slack does this too.

  16. no character length of name when display is set to "real name"

    Now it is set to 24(?)

    For example "Mansoor Nahasapeemapetilon" would be displayed as "Mansoor Nahasapeemapetil..."

    There is enough space to display the whole name.

  18. 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.

  19. Add user_real_name to outgoing slash commands or webhooks

    An outgoing /slash command from mattermost sends information including the token, userid and username in the POST.

    We would also like to see userrealname in the POST, without having to do another API call.

    For example:

    channelid=cniah6qa73bjjjan6mzn11f4ie&
    channel
    name=town-square&
    command=/somecommand&
    responseurl=not+supported+yet&
    team
    domain=someteam&
    teamid=rdc9bgriktyx9p4kowh3dmgqyc&
    text=hello+world&
    token=xr3j5x3p4pfk7kk6ck7b4e6ghh&
    user
    id=c3a4cqe3dfy6dgopqt8ai3hydh&
    username=freddy
    user
    real_name=Fred+Smith
