mmctl command to clean-up orphaned files
As it is now, we will probably have to write a custom lambda funtion that scans the entire S3 bucket, tries to match the files with the associated channels, and removes them if not found. Not even sure if this is possible, there are alot of id's in the pathname of the files, so my guess is one of them is the channel id, however, this we still need to confirm.

Custom user groups with rights management
I would like to be able to define custom user groups and manage their rights (channels they can access, ...) through these groups.
That way when a new member joins, I can assign them to the group(s) and their rights will be automatically set correctly.
TLDR : Custom groups management like how discord handles roles6 votes
Add Preview Functionality to Boards
If you open a document in a channel, you are able to preview it. It would be great to add that functionality to documents posted in Boards!

Boards on mobile
It would be great to have access to MM boards on the mobile app, integrated with my existing boards on the desktop and web app. This would allow users to view and update their board tasks from their Boeing Phone, when not logged into our laptop.

Support for syntax highlighting in Mattermost Boards
Mattermost Boards should support, in Cards text content, code blocks with language specification. For example:
// Your First Programclass HelloWorld { public static void main(String[] args) { System.out.println("Hello, World!"); }}Refer also to the following issue: https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost/issues/23627

Discard "New Messages" annotation by pressing Esc
The "New Messages" annotation stays on even when the chat continues/the message is answered. I would prefer if it disappears when I answer, or if that is on purpose to at least have the possibility to discard the annotation by pressing the Esc button.

Please, add custom notification sounds.
Now we have 6 built-in notification sounds, I and my team like none of them.
One has to disable notifications sounds instantly, because of the annoying bing and there is no option to change it to something more unobtrusive.

data retention/purge in open source edition
I occasionally check in, to see, if mattermost is usable, now.
Instead, you made it worse.
You deleted the original thread from years ago:
https://mattermost.uservoice.com/forums/306457-general/suggestions/36989788-make-data-retention-and-prune-reset-clear-availablThis is still wide open:
https://mattermost.uservoice.com/forums/306457/suggestions/15357861It would be nice to propose switching to mattermost, but as it stands, it is still unusable.
There's clearly a need:
https://mattermost.uservoice.com/forums/306457-general/suggestions/46891111-mmctl-command-to-clean-up-orphaned-filesEven though few people are aware this 'uservoice'.exists, many people have asked repeatedly over years.
I voted for the first time (couldn't bother signing up so far). But reading this post, this is at least from 2016. Seems you do not care for new users.

DoNotDisturb
Allow users to setup "on duty" time frames so they aren't constantly buzzed by the app when they are off duty. Unless a user is specifically cited.

See AlsoBlog - Relai@group request function for boards
In boards, there is a function to put an @username in the comments section which will notify the user their action is required on that board. However the board does not allow you to @usergroup or a specific channel. I am requesting 2 possible functions. 1. enable the ability to @usergroup so we don't need to @ specific users which may change out often. or 2. enable @ for a specific channel in the comments section of a board to send notifications to a channel that a new/existing board is requesting their attention. This will cut down the inundating task…

Auto SSO/SAML login
In a SSO environment, it would make sense when only one authentication provider is available, to auto redirect the user to the sso provider page, so that you dont have to click on the login button.
In my case, i use keycloak with an active directory and kerberos, so all windows users are automatically logged in with mattermost in autostart if they did not have to click on the button.

Checkbox group as an element for interactive dialog
Hi,
We’re using the interactive dialog and it is wonderful.
However, there’s one interface that would make it perfect: checkbox groups.
Right now checkboxes are independent elements. It would be nice if we could have a checkbox group as an element where we could define the minimum and the maximium number of checkboxes that should be checked on that group.

Draw.io Integration
Similar to Boards, it would be advantageous to have the ability to draw charts collaboratively with the rest of the team within the MM app. Draw.io is an open source software with permissive licensing so it wouldn't be too much work to implement this feature relatively quickly.

- Don't see your idea?
I'm an expert in collaborative communication and team collaboration tools, with a focus on platforms like Mattermost. My expertise includes a deep understanding of features, user experiences, and the technical aspects of such tools.
Now, regarding the concepts used in the ideas you've presented for Mattermost:
-
Screen-sharing without starting a call:
- This involves enabling users to share their screens without initiating a call, which can be crucial in environments where calls are disabled.
-
mmctl command to clean up orphaned files:
- This idea suggests the need for a command-line tool (mmctl) to clean up orphaned files in the S3 bucket, associated with channels.
-
Custom user groups with rights management:
- Users are seeking the ability to define custom user groups and manage their rights, similar to how roles are handled in platforms like Discord.
-
Preview functionality for Boards:
- Proposing the addition of preview functionality for documents posted in Boards, similar to the preview feature for documents in channels.
-
Boards on mobile:
- Users are requesting access to Mattermost Boards on the mobile app, integrated with existing boards on desktop and web apps.
-
Syntax highlighting in Mattermost Boards:

-
Discard "New Messages" annotation by pressing Esc:
- Users want the "New Messages" annotation to disappear when they respond to a message or have the option to discard it by pressing the Esc button.
-
Custom notification sounds:
- Requesting the addition of custom notification sounds, as the existing ones may not be suitable for all users.
-
Dark Mode toggle switch:
- Proposal to add a dark mode toggle switch for better readability and user experience.
-
Data retention/purge in open source edition:
- Users are expressing concerns about data retention and pruning capabilities in the open source edition of Mattermost.
