  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. Message attachment action button open URL

    Currently, message actions button is doing a HTTP call to get a JSON response. What about adding the possibility to define button that open an URL in a new tab ?

    Using https://developers.mattermost.com/integrate/plugins/interactive-messages/ , we want to display a button that simply open a link:

    {
    "attachments": [
    {
    "pretext": "This is the attachment pretext.",
    "text": "This is the attachment text.",
    "actions": [{
    "id": "open-link",
    "name": "Open Dashboard",
    "integration": {
    "link": "http://grafana.my-dev.com"
    }
    }
    ]
    }
    ]
    }
    ```

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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. Sort Emojis

    It would be great if it was possible to sort emojis manually as to promote certain internal custom emojis.

  8. Alt text for user-posted images

    Users should be able to add alt text to their images. This is actually necessary to comply with accessibility legislation in Canada.

  10. Allow to disable thread autofollow when whole channel was mentioned.

    Add parameter that allows Mattermost admin, to disable thread autofollow while having collapsed reply thread turned on while mass mentions are used (@channel, @all, @here).
    I want my users to get notification, but not to follow this thread automatically, afaik, this is not possible at this moment, because thread autofollow must be set to true in config.json, for collapsed reply thread to work.

  11. search in message attachments

    Allow search in message attachments. Currently, searching for text inside a message attachment doesn't produce any results. I suspect that this is similar to https://mattermost.uservoice.com/forums/306457-general/suggestions/19061098-allow-message-attachments-to-generate-mentions

  12. Users should be able to delete their datas without any admin intervention.

    Hello,
    cli tool is not user's compliant :)
    Users should be able to delete (not just deactivate) their datas without any admin intervention.

  13. Simple image editor - draw line to highligt part of image

    A simple image editor for uploaded images. This to draw lines, write text and add arrows. Would be great when explaining things. As in a quick bug report.

  14. Read Receipts: Implement a visual indication for messages if and when they have been read by other users of the channel

    Sometimes one's wondering if a post has already been read by other users. I could image that a member list of the channel pops up when one is selecting the read status from the particular post menu ("[..]").
    In private chats, a sinple check sign (similar to whatsapp) could signalize if a message had beend read by your counterpart.

  15. global/common channel across teams

    Add the ability for teams to share "global" channels.

    We have multiple teams but have a need for a common channel across all teams.
