  1. Bot Users

    Slack provides tighter integration for bots like hubot and calls it Bot Users. Slack's documentation describes it in depth: https://api.slack.com/bot-users

    For example, one of the most import advantages is talking to the bot in a private manner (direct message).

    It would be great if Mattermost provided this.

  3. Make notification emails multipart (plain-text friendly)

    The notification emails are HTML only, which is a pain when you read your mails in plain-text mode (or if you use, say, mutt).

    The mails should be multipart : a plain-text version and a HTML one.

  4. Add markdown support for Image Size

    I miss the markdown for defining image size with

    =WIDTHxHEIGHT

    like

    ![user avatar](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/XXXXXXX?v=3&s=32  =32x32)
    

    auto height: =WIDTHx

    because sometimes you do not want to get the full sized image :)
    would be awesome

  6. Consolidate display of join/leave messages into a single System Message

    Where lots of users join, I find it interferes with seeing real content. Any screen is dominated by System join messages.

  7. When idle, only send email notification if status doesn't change to online in 1 minute

    I suggest the following behavior when email notifications are turned on. Assuming email notifications are turned on, when a notification is triggered (direct message, mention, etc.), if the recipient's status is idle, trigger the usual MatterMost interface and system notifications, but wait 1 minute before generating an email. If the user's status changes back to online, we can assume they can/have seen the notification so do not generate an email. If their status is still away after the 1 minute delay, send the email as normal.

    There are many times I have the MM client open but not the active…

  8. Make MFA part of the team edition

    Securing your chat server should not depend on the size of your wallet. I think there are enough other reasons for enterprises to pay for Mattermost (support plans, branding, LDAP). Allowing additional security to private persons, open source- and small teams would be awesome.

  9. Move channels to other teams

    Situations:
    - When a projects splits up, certain channels need to go to the new team.
    - When an idea grows (channel in the main team), it needs to be moved to its own team.
    - For contract-reasons some channels need to be archived, where only management has access.
    - When reorganizing the teams and channels
    - When letting a customer access Mattermost, not all channels (like "problems with customer communication") should be in that team.

    How to move a channel to another team? It seems not to be possible, and I prefer not to go into database-hacking.

  10. image

    While Mattermost's image expansion works as expected when the URL ends in .gif, .jpg, etc, image-based links that Slack would expand automatically are not expanded by Mattermost.

    For example, post links like the following to a Mattermost channel or DM:
    http://media.riffsy.com/images/41a79faf658c913d77bfe36b8a231244/raw
    http://gph.is/2lQfDuj
    http://imgur.com/gallery/83mmP

    etc, and note that they do not expand, requiring a user to click on them to view in a new browser tab. It would be nice to have the images auto-expand in-line.

  11. The displaying of @-mentions should follow "Teammate Name Display" setting

    We have a GitLab-Linked Mattermost Instance but our user database is an LDAP directory with alphanumeric keys as User-IDs. We cannot change our User IDs. While I know my user-id, I don't know anybody else's (and they don't know mine), so we get lost in conversations where people are mentioning alphanumeric user-ids back and forth.

    Once the message is posted, the displaying of the mention should follow the Teammate Name Display setting. So instead of "Hi, @usr523", we should see "Hi, @Bob".

  12. Please add a way to say I'm not available right now to chat -

    Please add a way to say I'm not available right now to chat - for those of us who share our screens throughout the day with others (clients), I don't want messages popping up for so clients can read them. Closing the program doesn't stop the messages from popping up or give us a way to move the pop up to another monitor - urggh ! can't believe what the client just read... Give us a way to show 'I'm Busy right now' so the pop ups stop PLEASE

  13. On login don't display teams if only one is available

    When login in mattermost it shows "Your teams" that I must select to go to "Town Square".

    If only one team is available, it should skip this screen and go immediately to that team's Town Square

  14. Crtl+K CMD+K faster jumping to the channel

    It'll be very useful to modify this option: allow to find keyword with 'contains' option not only 'starts with'. For example:
    Name of the channel is: coolchannel
    I want to find phrase channel in channels name.
    For now i'm able to find only cool phrase (it starts from this word) not 'channel' or '
    '

  17. Client UI API

    The Mattermost current have the necessary basic feature. But current only have API to extend in the chat channel.

    I think it is possible to create a UI API. The developer can write a plugin host on online.

    If somebody's Mattermost server add this (self-)hosted service, the Mattermost client will call it and pull some JavaScript to change current client UI, and developer can create more feature for it.

    For example, we can embedded the Github issue tracker sidebar inside it, but didn't to use any webhook.

    Another benefits is the Mattermost server host can customize their Mattermost without build…

  19. Better notifications between teams

    When I receive a message from another team I can't see from which team it was sent. Maybe introduce a better notification system for persons who are in multiple teams on the same server.
