Add a button to quicksearch GIFs without leaving Mattermost

I've found that the volume level for notifications in the app can quite loud compared to other apps. Is it possible to add some internal setting that allows for scaling the volume of notifications?

When I point at a message, a group of about 4 icons appears at the top right of the message. My annoyance is that this icon group covers part of the text of the message I'm trying to read. Please reposition this button group so that it does not obscure the text.

1. App sets an automatic download directory, such as $HOME\Documents\Mattermost Files\


2. Add an "open" button beside the download button on the right side of the file in the chat.


3. When you click the "Open" button, if the file has not been downloaded, it will be automatically downloaded to the download folder in the first step. At the same time, the download progress bar will be displayed below the file in the chat. After the download is complete, or the file has been downloaded, call the system program to open the file.

I installed last v4.3.2 mattermost-desktop on my Ubuntu 18 laptop. I didn't find any solution to memorize my logins, so each morning, I have to enter it.

The right hand sidebar for the Mattermost client seems to only support searching. Many chat-apps like Slack, Discord, and others include a list of users in the current channel in a sidebar that can be displayed at all times. I think this would be a great feature!

I would like to get alerted when another user comes online.

In the proprietary messaging application that is also used in our organization, this feature is available as a right-click menu item labeled "Tag for Status Change Alerts", i.e. you can switch on/off alerts per user. I have always found it very useful so it would be a nice addition to Mattermost.

Have an option in the notification settings to allow the app to take focus of the desktop. I am getting push back that notifications are not obvious enough, especially for people who were away from their desk for a bit. This is causing urgent messages to be missed. They are used to our previous solution that did take focus when there was a new message and made it next to impossible to not notice.

Enable the ability for a user org/admin to make 'reply to the last message in a channel' the default option when starting a new message, so threads are the default for a conversation. This could perhaps also be optionally limited to replies that explicitly start with or contain an 'at-mention' of the handle of the creator of the original post.

It would be nice to have Protocol Buffers syntax highlighting as this is a very widely used format, used by gRPC and others.

When quickly sharing a files, it would be useful to have Mattermost in the Share Menu by default.

It would be nice to be able to mute a channel for a set period of time then it automatically unmute itself. Facebook Messenger has a similar feature called Snooze.

It would be useful to integrate with Spotlight Search on OS-X so that I can search in one place among local files, emails, MM messages, etc.

I like Mattermost but frequently the list of collaborators gets long and I have to scroll between active chats.

I think a filter feature would be useful to show only certain chats, e.g.
- channels with unread messages
- filter by text

Combined with "pinned channels" this would help to focus on the active stuff even without giving Mattermost an entire (large) screen.

Users can minimize an image preview of an URL that is directly pasted in the message, with the cross button at the top left corner. However, there is no such button if the same image is inlined with the folowwing syntax .

It'd be useful to have a way of minimizing inline images, like Slack does and like Mattermost does for raw URL previews.

This is a follow-up on multiple requests from the users of moussetc/mattermost-plugin-giphy on GitHub (Issue 12).

Currently we can set notifications to Ignore mentions for @channel, @here and @all. I would like to customize that list, much like the opposite of the user settings for triggering mentions.

Have a button in the code block to copy it on clipboard

I'm getting an annoying warning every time I send an @here message to my team. Could you please make this configurable?
