Description
Description:
The auto-complete still is having some issues. I'm sure this is a duplicate ticket -- however, I'm going to take some time to note as many as I can find.
Steps to reproduce:
- Go to any channel or direct message
- Type "androidnativeapp" and then add a hashtag to the beginning
Expected behavior:
Show the correct channel that exactly matches the name in the popup.
Actual behavior:


Notice the "androidnativeapp" is nowhere to be found. Also, note the Meteor mongo id() for the thread/discussion showing at the end of the auto-complete.
Server Setup Information:
- Version of Rocket.Chat Server: 1.1.0-rc.1

Research direction
Start by reproducing the autocomplete behavior in a channel or direct message: enter #androidnativeapp and compare the popup with the expected exact channel match. Verify that the matching channel appears and that the Meteor Mongo thread/discussion ID no longer appears in the suggestions.
