  1. 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.

  3. Policy for new account to change the initial password

    Hello world,

    we host mattermost by our own. So it is not allowed to register by your self. Our admin create the user with a initial password.

    So it will be good, that the user have to change the initial password.

    What do you think about it?

    Best reguards

  4. allow admins to set the default channels when a member joins

    It was nice in Slack to say for the batch of invitees that have been recently invited that they be thrown into channels x, y, z instead of having to manually Add Member to varying channels or ask them to seek out channels and add themselves.

  5. 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.

  6. Storage backend open stack swift

    For users who don't want to or can't use Amazon S3 or local filesystem, adding support for Open Stack Swift improves the "Cloud portability" of Mattermost, in addition to supporting more use cases.

  7. Add Support for MIRC color codes for formatting text.

    Fix it so that MIRC color codes are honored. MIRC color codes are a defacto standard in the IRC world and having support inside of mattrmost will insure a good experience for those using things like matterircd with mattermost.

  8. Easier way to search in a specific channel

    The "in:" search operator is useful for power users, but some users don't know how to get the channel ID.
    It would be nice to also have something like "Search only in the current channel" checkbox.

  10. Allow bulk upload of custom emoji

    Upload a zip of emojis, use the filename as the :emoji:. Parrot party follows this format. Or multi select files and upload them all at once.

  12. Move thread to another chanel

    Sometime, a thread is created in a channel that is the wrong one.

    There should be a way to move this channel into another channel with all its answers (by the original user and/or admin).

    This option could be added to the [...] menu of (the first?) message of a thread.

  13. Sub-comment

    Hi,

    please implement this code to all CSS templates:

    .post.same--root.post--comment, .post.same--root.same--user.post--comment {
    padding-left: 4em;
    }

    so chat look like this:

    http://www.image-share.com/ipng-3649-129.html

    We are using it some time, and chat is more clear to read.

    Many thanks.

  14. Notifications for replies in threads, and ability to follow/unfollow threads (like slack)

    I wish there was a notification setting like in slack to enable the setting "Notify me about replies to threads I'm following"... and then the ability to opt-out of following threads (but following them is automatic for any threads that you start or comment on)

  15. provide system token authentication

    We run a couple of scripts that access the Mattermost API, e.g. a script that posts a message to all Town Squares in all teams on our server and a script that creates user accounts (as we allow email login but disable email account creation so that we can control who creates accounts on the server). Right now we have the personal auth token of an administrator hardcoded in the scripts, but obviously this is suboptimal in case the administrator leaves the company, and messages appear to be sent from said administrator.

    Therefore it would be great if administrators could…

  16. Read-only for external clients

    It would be great to send secure links of an private channel to a client for status updates.

    What i want to do is:
    I want to start a new channel and write status updates or some information about the progress of an project.
    External clients should be able to view this channel only and see what has been posted und get current state if they want.
    But they should not be forced to register a new account. (Read/view only).

  17. Restore a deleted channel

    We would like to be able to restore deleted channels. One of which this can be done is to have a trash box of all deleted channels, of which we can restore back to in case we would like to reopen it.

  18. List accepted (and not yet ones) invitations

    Keep track to whom accepted invitation and those who didn't yet.
    When you send invitations to many people, you can't know for sure who actually accepted so you may want to resend invitations to your list of contacts (and again… And again…).

  19. Proxy third-party http requests through Mattermost server

    It would be very useful if http/s requests from Mattermost clients (web,desktop,mobile) to third party sites (for example analytics calls via js) could be optionally proxied through the Mattermost server itself. In restrictive environments these calls to third parties are often blocked by local security software, causing errors in the client.

  20. Integrate mattermost with asterisk

    I wish I could somehow have someone use an asterisk pbx and integrate it with asterisk. This way, if I click on a user, and they are available OK their soft phone installed on their mobile which connected to the asterisk pbx, I could call them. If they are already on their computer, I believe the latest version of mattermost would allow me to speak to them via chrome (webrtc). However, it would be nice to integrate an open source pbx with mattermost.
