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,

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.

search in bots' messages
We use MM EE integrate with GitLab EE, so "bots" from GitLab post issues / comments / merge requests to our channels. Today I discovered that MM Search feature does not search (or index?) messages send by such bots as it does not consider them as char participants (from: autocomplete does not offer bots' names, only humans). Is there a setting affecting this or it's by design? Thank you.

Allow Mattermost to pick up my availability status from other applications
I use Outlook and Jabber at the moment, and whilst I'm trying to push as much communication as possible to MM, there are times when this isn't possible. If i'm in a meeting, or on a call, it would be nice if MM could be notified of your status change and update your availability. It can be quite frustrating when you're presenting your desktop and you're getting popup notifications, MM should have the ability to figure this out and put me in DND.

Interactive buttons supporting emoji
If the text outside the interactive button is an emoji, eg. ":smile:", it gets rendered as the smile emoji. However, if this text is inside an interactive button, the test ":smile:" gets rendered.
Similarly when dealing with "£" signs, "£" renders correctly outside the button, but inside just the text is rendered.
It would be good if emoji and other HTML shortcuts could be implemented within the buttons themselves.

Set user position when user create, in Command Line Tools
The option 'user create' in the Command Line Tools is email, firstname, lastname, locale, nickname, password, username, system_admin. There is no "position".
I would like an option to set "position".1 vote -
Ability to modify attached files when editing a message
Currently, Mattermost provides the ability to edit a message after you have posted it.
However, there is no way to modify the file attachments via this editing process.
Recent use case: I uploaded the wrong file when posting a message. Ideally I would have been able to edit the post to correct the mistake, i.e. to remove the incorrect file and attach the one I meant to attach. However, I could find no way of doing this.
Luckily, in my case it was simply an old version of the document, and therefore not too big a problem. However, I am…

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"4 votes -

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)15 votes -
make threads multilevel with nested replies
After using Mattermost in a large organization setting it is quite clear that threads need to have multiple levels. Meaning I should be able to reply to someone else's reply and have it show up indented under his. This would be extremely useful once threads are made collapsible. Think of Reddit comment threads.

Allow administrators to set default notification settings
The default notification setting causes a lot of spam. It's hard for new users to find this and adjust it to mention-only, so they end up simply leaving teams. It would be helpful if administrators could choose which default new accounts start with. In my deployment, we would prefer new accounts start with notifications set to mention-only, of course allowing the users to change it.

Improve Team Notification with multiple teams
When Users are in multiple teams, it is at the moment hard to see in which team are unread messages. There is just a small dot near the team and that is hard to recognize.
When you got a mention, Mattermost is adding a dot with a number on the team.
I suggest to use this dot for mentioning but just without the number for improving the visibility of unread messages without mentions.
