@amyblais Alright, I finally managed to get through the signup. Here’s my suggestion, although it’s in moderation for now, so the link probably won’t work until it’s approved.

A ”Mark read” choice in push notifications about new messages, as seen in many IM apps, would be handy in Mattermost Mobile too. Currently the message can only be marked read by tapping the message to open the app (which is slow).

Hi @amyblais,

I could post this on the feature idea forum, but I can’t figure out how the signup on the site works. When I click on ”Create an account”, I get a prompt to verify my email address, and having done that, a page saying ”Go back to Production to finish logging in”. I don’t know what ”Production” is, and at no point was there any actual way to set up a password, so I can’t log in.

Summary

A ”Mark read” choice in push notifications about new messages, as seen in many IM apps, would be handy in Mattermost Mobile too. Currently the message can only be marked read by tapping the message to open the app (which is slow).

Environment Information

• Device Name: Samsung Galaxy A9
• OS Version: Android 10
• Mattermost App Version: 2.11.0
• Mattermost Server Version: 9.3.0

Steps to reproduce

1. Receive a message notification on the Android app.
2. Pull down the notifications.
3. Expand the received notification.

Expected behavior

Have a ”Mark read” option underneath the expanded notification.

Observed behavior

No ”Mark read” option, only ”Reply”.

Summary

As of this writing, push proxy v5.25.0 was released 5 days ago, but the published assets on Github only include the source code.

Steps to reproduce

As per documentation,

wget https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-push-proxy/releases/download/v5.25.0/mattermost-push-proxy.tar.gz

Expected behavior

Receive mattermost-push-proxy.tar.gz

Observed behavior (that appears unintentional)

404 Not Found

I have the same issue. I’m doing this in a Linux container (Ubuntu 20.04 inside Ubuntu 20.04), but like matthaios-easy-bi, I’m using npm run build:android to build (as per documentation). This has worked up until 2.0, but with 2.1 it always fails due to non-existent org.webrtc. Manually running npm install prior to npm run build:android makes no difference, nor does node node_modules/react-native-webrtc/tools/downloadWebRTC.js (although it does seemingly download the package successfully).

Here’s excerpts from the build output.

It’s not Mac-only either, I have the same issue trying to compile v2.1.0 on my Linux PC.

V2.0 had issues too, but FTBFS wasn’t one of them.

Hi @hmhealey,

Yes, it’s mainly about expectation. For an actual use case, I noticed this when mentioning an IRC channel name, which became a long, distracting and useless hashtag link, exacerbated by agglutination and multi-word hyphenation typical in Finnish, (e.g. #channelname-irc-kanavalla). I tried to make it less distracting by editing in a preceding backslash, only to discover that it didn’t work here.

Summary

There is no way to escape a word-starting hash character (#) in plaintext.

Steps to reproduce

In MM 7.3.0, post this, verbatim: \#anything

Expected behavior

#anything

Observed behavior (that appears unintentional)

#anything

Possible fixes

Workaround: instead of ”\#anything”, post this: &#​35;anything

Using backticks (`\#anything`) also works, but obviously the word then gets formatted as code and not plaintext.

Other notes

This is mainly an issue of inconsistency and surprise: backslash works to escape most other special formatting, so I’d expect it to work here too.

Summary

I’m getting these unrequested emails from my self-hosted instance, with no apparent way to disable them. This is bad, bad behavior.

Steps to reproduce

Host an instance running Mattermost 6.6.1. Leave it ”collecting a bit of dust”.

Expected behavior

Not to get spammed with unwanted emails.

Observed behavior (that appears unintentional)
