  1. Add Ability to allow webhooks in private channels

    Add a control to allow webhooks to work in private channels. A per webhook control would be best, but an all or nothing would be a good start.

  2. Tasks Management

    I would really like to have a task management feature or app integration.

    As I'm using Glip for some projects (as guest, not for my company, to avoid the Data trap you know very well from Slack :-), the best way is to see how it works here:

  3. Add a way to spoiler some messages or part of messages

    I think it would be a great idea to add spoiler tags like message or message but for spoilers (i.e ^This is a spoil^)

    There are several ways to implement this:

    -By having an expand/close button for showing/hiding the message
    -By having to select the text to see it
    -By having to hover on the text with the cursor to see it (might be problematic for touch-based devices)

    I suggest discussing on what is the best for mattermost.

  4. Add turnkey support for Auth0 as an identity provider

    As described at https://forum.mattermost.org/t/auth0-single-sign-on/6728

    As a mattermost administrator, I want to be able to configure authentication with Auth0 as an identity provider. Auth0 supports a variety of standards, so it might be best to implement it as OpenID Connect.

  5. 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.

  6. Allow selecting and deleting multiple messages at once

    Allow Channel Admins to be able to enter "select" or "edit" mode where checkboxes appear next to the messages.
    Admins would be able to select messages one by one or to select a range of messages by clicking the first one, holding Shift button and selecting the last one (like we've used from other software).

    After selecting multiple messages, Admins would be able to delete them at once, or perform any other action that might be implemented during the development (move, archive, flag, something else).

    This feature would make it a lot easier to delete whole bunches of off-topic messages…

  7. add latex support

    For any deployment in a math-using organization or a research group, latex support is a killer feature. To the best of my knowledge, no native support exists in the competitor tools, and Slack has a rather cumbersome "translator bot" https://github.com/colbygk/mathslax. On the other hand, combining mathjax or katex with marked seems relatively common (e.g. https://github.com/ForbesLindesay/supermarked).

  9. Threads: Proposal for additional usability and readability Option

    Dear Team,
    thanks for the awesome Mattermost App!

    I love threads, and i would like to suggest an additional usability and readability option:

    Background (or "what drives me mad"):
    Everybody knows the flow of conversations, they have the tendency to get unstructurized and important threads of messages get "buried" below new incoming messages in the parent channel.
    Also People sometimes dont answer in threads, either they dont want to use threads, or they accidently answer in the parent channel.
    This makes things more than often confusing to follow..

    My Proposal to implement just some options:

    How it works Now:

  10. Send a notification to the mobile app when the sesson is expired

    Currently, there is no way for a user to know that their mobile session expired without opening their app and checking it manually. This causes users to potentially miss out important messages as they may not realize that they are signed out.

    To solve this, it would be best if the Mattermost mobile app sent a notification when the session is expired, so the user is aware of it and can sign back in.

  11. Treat post selection as a reply

    It is a constant struggle to keep all relevant messages associated to a thread. People don't see the reply icon or understand its significance. I'm not sure how to best solve that whole problem, but it'd help to make the concept of a reply more prominent if selecting a post is the equivalent of clicking the arrow icon.

  12. Mark messages

    A function to mark messages to be handled later would be very useful. If you get a message with a task and you can't handle it instantly it would be great to mark it, f.e. with a star, to find it later easily. And if you could generate a list with all marked messages to have a "task list" this would be best!

  13. Make log file reading easier

    The timestamp within the log is now Unix Timestamp. This makes it really hard to find the right logs when there is a issue.

    Please implement a option to change to a human readable time. I suggest the UTC timestamp. Dateformat can be fix of should better be looking for the server values.

    Now:
    {"level":"debug","ts":1540975612.3137412,"caller":"web/handlers.go:50","msg":"POST - /api/v4/users/status/ids"}

    Better:
    {"level":"debug","ts":10/31/2018 8:46am,"caller":"web/handlers.go:50","msg":"POST - /api/v4/users/status/ids"}

    Optimal (i am in europe):
    {"level":"debug","ts":31.10.2018 8:46,"caller":"web/handlers.go:50","msg":"POST - /api/v4/users/status/ids"}

    Best regards

  14. Private metadata on mobile notifications

    My organization is using Mattermost heavily, and we'd like to receive mobile notifications to make it more useful. However, currently Mattermost shares a lot of metadata with Apple's and Google's servers:

    https://docs.mattermost.com/mobile/mobile-faq.html#what-post-metadata-is-sent-in-mobile-push-notifications

    This is preventing us from enabling notifications.

    I'd like to suggest that you treat the Apple and Google push notification services just as a "wake up" signal, without including user ID, team ID, etc. The mobile app would then connect (via TLS) to its server, download any new messages, and generate local notifications based on those.

    I recently spoke with someone on the Mattermost team who suggested that…

  15. 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?

  18. one file installation on hosted servers

    The installation should be only depending on a ftp-access to a hosted server storing data in flat files. Second best would be mysql connection.

  19. copy existing mattermost token to other teams

    Currently there are many integrations via webhook / slash commands that need a specific token to be set up in the configuration.

    if you want to use the same slash command for several teams its not possible without updating the database manually with the same token you used before in another team.

    the best option would be something like a seperate option to set the generated token id manually, so its possible to use 1 token for 1 integration for all teams that are created in mattermost.

    Did the same manually in the mattermost database, by selecting the commands table…

  20. AVIF image format support

    AVIF (which is also a still image of av1 video compressor) is one of the most modern image formats (in addition to JPEG XL).

    Majority of web browsers already support it and modern news websites are using it on regular basis. Sites such as Facebook / Instagram support it (and btw.. render avif uploads much faster than jpg)

    If you want to compress / archive your image collection AVIF and JPEG XL are best formats to do that as they are open source. Problems start when you want to share an image from your collection to a Mattermost site.
