Description

I use as well the Desktop-Mattermost client and the web interface in both the sidebar is gone after some minutes or within a few hours, which is anoying. The current workaround is to reload the webpage or the desktop client. Why does this happen?

I use:
- Version 1.1.0 of the plugin
- Mattermost 5.20.1
- Desktop Client: 4.4.0 / Linux

Edit:
It takes less than two hours until it is gone.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the sidebar disappearance in the Mattermost web interface or Desktop client using plugin 1.1.0 with Mattermost 5.20.1 and the listed Linux client version. Investigate the plugin's sidebar behavior and identify why it disappears after less than two hours; done means the sidebar remains available without reloading.
