Provide an option to only show channels with unread messages
We have a Mattermost installation where I'm subscribed to 24 channels, most of which are fairly quiet. Except for the channels that are at the top and bottom of the list (of course). I'm continually scrolling up and down.
I'd like to have an option that hides channels that have no unread messages. Hiding all-read private groups and DMs would be a bonus.
96 votesThanks Brian and others for suggesting this feature!
We are considering to add a setting to hide all read channels in the sidebar: https://mattermost.atlassian.net/browse/MM-7502
In the meantime, there are two features that can help your teams:
1) Mattermost v4.7+ supports a setting to group all unread channels at the top. This makes it easier to find all your unreads. It must first be enabled by your System Admin: https://docs.mattermost.com/administration/config-settings.html#group-unread-channels-experimental
2) Mattermost v4.9+ shows unread channels when using the channel switcher (CMD/CTRL+K) -
Access Control List for Web Interface & Mobile App
We are a .org wishing to implement Mattermost.
We would like only a specific group of "internal" users to be allowed to access the server from outside the firewall. In addition, we would also like a specific group of external clients to be able to access the server through the mobile app.
I understand one method is to use a VPN. However, an additional app to put on someone's device may be a burden.
The Novell/Micro Focus Product Webaccess has a feature that allows the admin to specify users via an .xml file.
A snippet:
"Controlling WebAccess Usage:
You can control which users can use WebAccess to access their GroupWise mailboxes. By default, all GroupWise users can use WebAccess.
You can control access based on the domain or post office where the user’s mailbox is located. You can control access for related users based on groups, and you can control access for individual users.
Access control is established through the gwac.xml file, located in the same folder with the webacc.cfg file.
The default gwac.xml file illustrates the following options:
<!-- To allow access to all EXCEPT a few, use this technique. -->
<!--
<gwac access="prevent">
<domain name="domain1" />
<postOffice name="po2.domain2" />
<user name="jdoe.po3.domain3" />
<distributionList name="helpdesk.po4.domain4" />
<resource name="confroom.po4.domain4" />
</gwac>
--><!-- To prevent access to all EXCEPT a few, use this technique -->
<!--
<gwac access="allow">
<domain name="domain1" />
<postOffice name="po2.domain2" />
<user name="jdoe.po3.domain3" />
<distributionList name="helpdesk.po4.domain4" />
<resource name="confroom.po4.domain4" />
</gwac>
-->
You can use any ASCII text editor that you prefer to edit the gwac.xml file.Open the gwac.xml file in a text editor.
Typically, you use the gwac.xml file to override the default of allowing all users to use WebAccess.
Remove the comment marker lines (<!-- and -->) around the section that you want to use.
(Optional) Under the <gwac access="prevent"> line, create one or more lines to prevent users in one or more domains from using WebAccess, for example:
<domain name="provo5"/>
<domain name="provo6"/>
(Optional) Create one or more lines to prevent users in one or more post offices from using WebAccess, for example:<postOffice name="interns.provo1"/>
<postOffice name="temps.provo1"/>
Specify the post office in post_office.domain format.(Optional) Create one or more lines to prevent users in one or more groups from using WebAccess, for example:
<distributionList name="webaccessdenied.admin.provo1"/>
Specify the group in group.post_office.domain format.Using one or more groups is the most flexible approach to access control for WebAccess. The group belongs to a specific post office (for example, the one you belong to), but it can include GroupWise users located anywhere in your GroupWise system. By using a group, you can easily modify access control for specific users by modifying the group in the GroupWise Admin console, rather than needed to modify the gwac.xml file whenever access control changes are needed. For more information about groups, see Section 56.0, Creating and Managing Groups.
(Optional) Create one or more lines to prevent specific users from using WebAccess, for example:
<user name="sjones.interns.provo1"/>
<user name="gbock.interns.provo1"/>
(Conditional) If you want to prevent most users and allow only specified users, use a <gwac access="allow"> line instead of a <gwac access="prevent"> line.Save the gwac.xml file."
Please consider.

Data Protection from new users
As an administrator, I would like to be able to add new users that cannot read what had been written before they joined.
This somewhat special request has the purpose to ensure privacy to users that already are subscribed. It should be asserted that their statements stay confidential among the scope of users that could read them when they wrote it.
I guess that's not possible yet, is it?

marking posts as read on viewing, not all in channel at once
For example I have off-topic channel with 1000 unread messages. I want to read them all, but it takes 15 minutes or more. I start reading, read about 200 messages, but at that time I receive very important direct message, or mention in other channel. I switch to that channel, do what I need, but when I come back to off-topic channel, i have all messages marked as read. moreover - I instantly jump to the end of a channel, not to place where i stop reading.
Also even if channel is opened, but i am reading something in past (not only last unread messages), new messages in this channel must`t instantly become marked as read until I really scroll to them

Assign User to incoming Webhooks
Hey,
we run Mattermost and have some webhooks set up for Taiga ( https://taiga.io ). We created a User "Taiga-Bot" for our webhooks.Right now the webhook is always assigned to the user that created given webhook.
I'd like to have an option to assign already created/new webhooks to any user as long that I'm logged in with a sysAdmin account.

Disable direct messages
Our company would find it useful if there was an admin option to disable direct messages all-together.
We think this may help the work of teams where there is no need to discucc anything outside of team channels.105 votes -

"Team Directory" - Show Username, Mail, Timezone, Phone Number of other Members
I like to see information about other Users when I klick their name in the chat. Slack show Username, Mail, Timezone and Phone - I think that's a good start for a simple user profile.
Users could decide which information they like to make public.31 votes -

Option to disable user "Access History"
Mattermost seems to log all user IP as a default.
Maybe it would be a nice option to opt-out per user or system wide the logging of all IP addresses.4 votes -

New Channel Announcements
When people create new channels within a team, it would be great to have a popup that shows team members within the channel a screen something like "New Channels created since your last visit, refresh, etc..."
What we are finding is people are creating new channels within Teams, yet no one knows about them unless they click on the More link within the team.

Code snippet with preview
It would be really nice to have preview boxes of long code blocks (Code snippets).
It should be cropped if there are more then x lines (maybe configurable), and could be opened in a new tab or fade out within the chat. An extra code viewer "window" would be nice.E.g. :
https://i.imgur.com/6I25yR1.pngIt is really easy to do so:
Add a span/div element within the code block, give it absolute bottom position and a height (50px here), give it a gradient bg color and give the code block a max-height with overflow hidden. there you go.66 votesThe feature is under review. Would anyone would be interested contributing the improvement if we made it a help wanted ticket? https://docs.mattermost.com/process/help-wanted.html
