Channel ownership information for the regular users #30126
Comments

I would like to see additional filter in channel/team/room members listing, which currently have filter only to presence (All or Online). That additional filter could have select/choice menu listed with all configured role configured in Permissions definitions. The default value could be Any, that would not use any role as filter, but lists all users. |

Totally agree. A filter would be perfect for this. |

Hello , can anybody guide me on how to get the room admin info , I tried to query the roomInfo object but it do not provide any info about room admin |
|
Sorry, I'm not aware what API call would do that since Because I haven't found a better way I usually do the ownership checks directly via the database rocketchat_subscription collection like this: |

ok thank you will try with this ! |
|
is this issue is still active or closed |
|
Don't know if this is really active, but at least with 6.11.3 the status is the same. RC user interface lacks information about the owners of the channels for the common user role in the channel user lists. Only way is to spot it, is from the channel messages as lablels after username, but if the owners are not active, users can't get this info. |

okay might going to give it a try |

I have added a PR for this issue can someone look into it!! |
Description:
RC user interface lacks information about the owners of the channels for the common user role. Currently this information is shown for the regular users only after the sender name of the messages in a form of
ownerbadge.This information is important particularly in private channel situations, where the actual owners of the channels have not been posting any messages for some time, and the members are in the need of requesting more members to the channel.
At this point they need to contact admins. This is not very handy for the bigger installations.
Usually the admins do not have access to these channels to begin with, which leads to overly complex maintenance process for a feature that otherwise could be handled by the users and channel owners themselves.
When coupled with the automatic ownership inheritance feature the understanding of any private channels becomes unclear in long term.
In effect for the lack of the ownership information admins are seeing more and more requests to add members to the user generated private channels instead of contacting the actual owner of the channel.
Our suggestion is that all or minimum three owners of the channel should be listed in the channel info page, or any other easy to spot location in the UI.
Steps to reproduce:
Expected behavior:
You see the owners on the channel marked clearly in the membership list or in the info page of the channel.
Actual behavior:
The information about the owners of the channel is not available to the regular user.
