Read receipts not available?

Feedback

Hello,

We use the Free version of Mattermost within our organization. Is it possible to see who has read messages in this version? So-called ‘Read receipts’?

I came across this: [MM-36529] - Mattermost

But when I navigate in the system console to: Users and Teams → Enable read receipts (at the bottom of the page) I don’t see that option. Is that correct? Is this a paid option?

Hi @digitalalpaca and welcome to the Mattermost forums!

This feature is not yet available, the ticket you’re referencing to is just a draft for a possible upcoming feature. As of yet, noone is actively working on it and it has not been merged in any of the available branches of the product, so it will still take some time for it to be available as part of the product.

Giving this thread a bump as it’s one of the top voted features on our UserVoice forum over the past quarter.
