  2. Support external keyboard

    See issue: https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-mobile/issues/2512
    When an external keyboard and an on-screen keyboard is used, the chat input text field looses focus as soon as the on-screen-keyboard is hidden, probably because hiding the keyboard changes the screen size and therefore triggers a redraw/relayout. I suggest to fix this.

  3. allow message with slack attachments to show there fallback text in email notifications (instead of sending an empty email)

    Hi all,

    We ran into an issue where messages sent that consist of an attachment as per:
    https://docs.mattermost.com/developer/message-attachments.html 1
    don’t show anything in email notifications. I was wondering if this was intended?

    I can imagine sending the formatted text is difficult, but part of the message attachment is a fallback string and including this in the email notification should be feasable.

    Kind regards,
    Louis

  4. Miniature (icon) Mugshot in leftmost Direct Messages pane, shown before name

    In the “Direct Messages” leftmost pane show a miniature mugshot, in addition to the persons name shown. The same mugshot /image as shown in message conversation list view.

    Sometimes the name is not know or remembered, but the face is not easily forgotten (unless your blind) and might be recognized, when initiating a conversation.

    My list contain about 100 developers, many with similarly sounding names and it would ease when trying to find the right developer.

    When having many contacts often the names becomes very similar i.e John A Smith, John B Smith, John C Smith.

    Which of those is…

  5. Push-to-Talk

    While "texting", I would like to be able to transmit an ad hoc sound bite, so that I can quickly verbalize something without having to start a call session - not store-and-forward, but immediate live voice, Star Trek comm badge style.

    I'm glad I ran into you guys in Punta Cana!

  7. add a plugin hook for search

    If plugins had a hook when someone performs a search, they could customise the search experience, e.g. by querying other systems and offering those results too (maybe as an ephemeral post).

    I would love to use mattermost search as our cross-platform search provider...

  8. Linux desktop app: start hidden in tray without creating window itself

    Instead of creating the application and minimizing it application start must be done without creating window itself.

    Lack of this option I have discussed here https://forum.mattermost.org/t/solved-linux-mattermost-desktop-start-minimized-from-command-line/6321/18

  9. Improve High Availability UI

    Some improvements could help administration:

    • In the Cluster Status table, highly the node that the user is currently connected to so it's obvious
    • Provide a way to connect directly to the server on the local port to debug that specific server.

    Any other ideas for improvement?

  10. Add an API for getting private channels

    As a system admin using the API, it would be useful to get a list of private channels for a team.

    Currently, one can get posts for private channels through the channels/{channel_id}/posts API, but that assumes that the admin knows the channel_id. Finding that ID cannot be done through the API.

    Use case: for reporting purposes, we want to get the count of messages per private channel each month.

  11. Add notification timeout option

    I've seen other thing saying there is a timeout option for notifications but I'm not seeing one in the Linux desktop app. Should it be there? If not, I'd really like a way to make the notifications to be persistent until I interact with them or Mattermost.

  12. Make the text box background match the rest of the dark theme

    When in either of the dark themes on the Android app, the text box has a white background which is super jarring. Can we get it matched with the rest of the theme please?

  13. Include private channels to search based on current user membership

    Make Mattermost API channels search method
    ( /teams/{team_id}/channels/search )
    to include private channels where the current user is a member.

    E.g. if the user A is a member of channel B and user A performs channel search, it will get channel B in a response from server if B matches the term.

    In Mattermost 5.5.0 search returns only public channels in results. The only way to find channel by display name is to get all channels current user is a member of and iterate over them on client side.

  14. Add badge for new messages that's visible in a pinned tab.

    When you've pinned a tab on your browser the badge that appears to show new messages within the client isn't visible. At best you have to hover to see a (*) that denotes new messages.

    There should be an immediately visible badge on a pinned tab for unread messages.

  16. Have the ability to jump directly to the first message in a channel

    When a user needs to scroll up through a lot of history, it can take a lot of time and effort. It would be much better if there was a button or ability letting users to jump directly to the first message in a channel.

  17. Option in a channel: force view pinned posts

    In some channels some messages are ‘must read’...
    An option ‘I have read this one’ would be great then.
    It would also be nice to be able to reorder the pinned posts.

  18. Embed Calender, etc

    It would be nice if there would be the possibility to create channels in which you could fix an embed content in the upper area. E.g. a Google calendar which shows the weekly overview or an external service for data storage etc..

    Alternatively, a bot that writes the Daily Todos in a channel like slack would be possible: https://get.slack.help/hc/de/articles/206329808-Google-Kalender-f%C3%BCr-Slack

  19. Support CAS integration (Central Authentication Service)

    THe idea is to suppor CAS integration (Central Authentication Service), as Gitlab does for example. It's a SSO system.

    CAS is used in many universities, and supporting it would favorize deployment of mattermost in such environments.

  20. Do not disturb hours

    Mattermost has a manual Do Not Disturb feature, which is nice. However, it would be extra nice to have "Do Not Disturb hours" for each account, so individuals can set certain hours when Do Not Disturb is automatically enabled for their account. It would be extra nice if these were automatically set on account creation to common bedtime hours in the local time zone; for instance 10pm to 7am. This is a nice work/life balance feature that encourages people to get enough sleep by default. :-)
