  1. Implement custom team shortnames

    Currently the team list shows the first two letters of the team name, if no custom icon is provided. It would be great if these two letters could be configured, so that they can be different from the first two letters of the team name.

  2. Date and Channel Name

    When we type a message it shows time but not shows date. Please add date with time and if possible also add channel name with time and date.

    We copy the message for our reference. It would be more helpfull if Date and channel name added with time.

  3. Include of preview of message in each notification

    Please add setting of notifications 'Include of preview of message in each notification'. This option is needed for personal data protection when you screen sharing with any application like skype.
    On one of your site webpages it says that "Mattermost offers alternative ... to Slack’s SaaS-only workplace messaging service". In Slack's this option exists in Notifications settings.

  4. Enable different spellchecking languages for each server

    I switch between a German and English server a lot and one of them always has all of my messages underlined red, so being able to set the language on a per server basis would be great!

  5. Give the option to move Direct Messages to the right of the channels (In between Channels & Chat)

    It would be nice to be able to move the Teams / Channels / Direct Messages in separate blocks so to be customizable.

    Right now i have alot of channels and my direct messages are all the way down. If i could move the direct messages to the right of the channels i think it would be neatly organized.

    Teams > Channels > Direct Messages > Chat window

    Cheers,

  6. Desktop app: Offline mode to access channel content to truly replace email

    I have many scenarios where I cannot connect to the mattermost server, e.g. on flights, on the train. In these cases I still want to be able to fire up mattermost and access the channel content, e.g. look up important discussions, attachments, images.

    Mattermost is great to seamlessly structure discussions and work results, but to truly replace email, that content must be available offline.

  7. CMD/CTRL+K should use fuzzy find methodology

    When you are using cmd+k to find a channel or person, it would be nice if it used a fuzzy find searching mechanism.

    Example:
    trying to find person a.lastName
    searching: "alast" doesn't find anything currently since it requires you search "a.last"

  8. Too many times opening proxy auth dialog

    In company proxy environment, authentication dialog for proxy open as many as Mattermost server registered in App each time I open Mattermost App.
    We want to reduce the number of times to open the dialog. (e.g. by setting auth for proxy from environement variables, or by saving auth info to config.json)

  12. Mattermost in the Microsoft Store

    I would wish that you can install Mattermost as a client directly from the Microsoft Store in Windows 10. This would be an advantage, especi

  13. Provide for multiple fonts

    Recently the ability to choose fonts was removed. See https://forum.mattermost.org/t/removing-font-setting/3367. Now there is only one font, and it renders poorly for me (insufficient weight/contrast) on smaller high DPI displays. This makes the GUI very hard to use. Please provide a way to select among a set of fonts, or ideally specify my own.

    Frankly the justification for removing the feature was weak. Let the user decide if the load time or other trade offs are worth the better rendering.

  14. Create Tear Away Chat Windows

    The desktop app is WAY too clunky to permit multiple simultaneous conversations.

    Mattermost needs "tear away" chat windows like Google Hangouts so that you can have side by side chats going.

  15. Inline webm viewer

    Show webm (and maybe mp4 as well if supported compression like x264) inline instead of having to click on the download button to view it. The video can already be played inside the mattermost app, but not inline. Right now our users use unnecessary large gifs to share animations because they work inline in the chat window.

  16. add the ability to preview messages, or a larger editor in the RHB

    It would be really great to be able to have a preview of a message before it's sent. Putting a full-size, WYSIWYG-able editor available in the right-hand bar would make it easier to compose longer messages, especially if you need to reference other posts inside of Mattermost.

  17. Add a font which is readable without Anti Aliasing

    With release v4.0 release (July 16, 2017) the ability to choose fonts was removed. The one and only font (Open Sans) is quite unreadable if Anti Aliasing is switched off. Please think about people with handicaps which cannot use Anti Aliasing because of their eyes.

    Please add at least one font (as Arial or Ubuntu from pre 4.0) or provide a simple description of how someone can do this for a local installation.

  18. Host a repository for the mattermost-desktop Debian package

    It is nice to have a .deb package for mattermost-desktop, but it would be even easier to have a repository we can add to sources.list so the app can be easily updated.

  19. Open attached image in browser

    When trying to view attached images at their full resolution, having to save the image, find where you saved it, and then open it there is quite clunky.

    It would be better to open the attached image in a browser, users can right click save it from there, and it can easily be maximized there

  20. Touchbar integration

    How about adding touchbar integration for the latest Macbook Pros? This is one thing that HipChat had that was quite useful - could be used for emoji search, setting away/dnd status, etc.

    Thoughts?
