Show the channel the incoming webhook has been set to
Currently I cannot find a way to know for which channel has been configured an incoming webhook (in my case, for integration with GitLab).
In the "Integrations/Incoming Webhooks" section, just appear the name of the webhook and the webhook URL it self, without saying for which channel has been set, and the option of deleting it. And in the GitLab side there's no way to know for which channel will be triggered the hook.
This come become a problem when you have several webhooks and channels.

Use the "fallback" field from Slack's webhook attachment format as text for notification, when the provided text is empty.
The slack attachment format defines a fallback field, that is required for attachments to be valid, and is used when the full-formatted message is not usable in a particular context (e.g. text-mode clients, notifications).
For example, Slack uses that fallback field for the text of notifications. I believe that Mattermost should do the same.
That would require changes on the webhook-related code, on the format of the post object that is forwarded in Javascript, and on the code that generates the text shown in notifications. I could work on a PR if you are favorable to the idea.

Restore should be in Team edition or Channel delete in Team edition should be permanent
If i delete a channel i cannot create a new one with same name. nor can i restore the previous channel without enterprise edition.
I suggest to move feature of restoring to Team edition. Alternatively make channel deletions permanent so another channel with same name can be created.

Hotlink preview for uploaded image instead of thumbnail
When uploading images it will be nice to have a preview features (like when entering an image through a link) instead of the current generated thumbnail which is not very representative of the image. This is somehow how Slack is showing uploaded image.

open the emoji picker with typing ":", followed by pressing Tab
I'd really like to see the emoji picker that can be activated as described in the title, instead of the ":" followed by minimum of 2 characters as it is at the moment.
I'm aware of the full picker ticket https://mattermost.atlassian.net/browse/PLT-2354, but as i understand it doesn't include this feature.1 vote -

Custom tutorial text
Enable the setting of custom tutorial text for the three tutorial intro screens, with markdown formatting support and preview of the messages to be sent.
As a secondary priority, enable the setting of different messages based on the preferences of the end user, defaulting to English if no message is set.
Requesting this because often organizations want to share more about the purpose of their Mattermost deployment, and include different links, e.g. link to naming conventions to use for channels, an internal user's guide to the key features in the system intended to be used, perhaps a video introduction from…

copy existing mattermost token to other teams
Currently there are many integrations via webhook / slash commands that need a specific token to be set up in the configuration.
if you want to use the same slash command for several teams its not possible without updating the database manually with the same token you used before in another team.
the best option would be something like a seperate option to set the generated token id manually, so its possible to use 1 token for 1 integration for all teams that are created in mattermost.
Did the same manually in the mattermost database, by selecting the commands table…

Markup to directly navigate to the ticket on Redmine, a small overview of the ticket as well.
Markup to directly navigate to the ticket on Redmine, a small overview of the ticket as well. For example, when I refer to a ticket I use #ticket_no. This could be parsed by the parser and replaced by an href that points to the ticket

Show filenames after dragging a file into a message
Currently when you drag a file into a message the name of the file isn't shown until you send a message. It would be nice if the filename could be displayed before sending so that you can confirm the right file was dragged in.

smtp authorization support request
for most small company, there is no ldap servier or sso. but all most have email service, self hosted or saas like google mail.
if there is a authorization type called smtp authorization like oauth2(google,gitlab...), it will make company helpful more without make another authorization system, bothered with account management.3 votes -
Offensive Words Filter
In a professional environment, it would not be polite to allow some kind of language specially in open channels. It would be very useful for admins to handle a small database of words not permitted in their channel and a filter that replaces the "offending words" for symbols or other words defined by them.

Pseudo-random default avatars
Make the default user's avatars more random. Instead of just being a circle with the first letter of the user's username, use some hashing algorithm to generate some sort of identicons. An idea very popular nowadays (Github, GitLab, Gravatar, Slack, etc)

Context menu on user names or mentions, like "Send Email", "View Profile" and allow integrations
Clicking on a user mention shows other mentions. But maybe we want to interact with that user in other ways, like sending a message (which should open the private conversation with them), send an email, view profile, etc.
In addition, we could allow for integration with some other service. For example, integration can be defined as a URL endpoint that can pass/post the username as parameter or request a custom field in the use profile which then can be sent as parameter. For example, let's say we want to integrate with Skype to call the user via Skype. Integration might…2 votes -
Allow users and passwords to be created from admin console
While having users create their own accounts as a result of sending an e-mail invite, I'd like to be able to make users and assign them permissions and passwords right from the admin console, without having to configure SSO or drop to a command line.

Add a one-click action to create a new snippet
Like Slack, being able to create a snippet by clicking a button and choose from a droplist the language would be far less painful than typing ``` (especially for non-qwerty keyboards).
It would be more intuitive especially for coders who discover the platform. Thanks!

Extract GIF from Giphy links
When posting a link to a Giphy page (e.g. http://giphy.com/gifs/power-rangers-morphin-OOZLyBA9Euq2I), it would be nice if Mattermost could automatically display the GIF below the post.
(It works if you post the direct link to the .gif file but most users won't do that.)7 votes -
Allow restricting GitLab/GitHub SSO user signups to only a particular team
Near as I can tell, right now if you use the GitLab/GitHub SSO option, any user with an account is able to sign up. It'd be great if there was a way to restrict signups to only users who are members of a particular team.

Customize search clause for fulltext search
Currently search clause for fulltext is using "@@" operator for PostgreSQL with tsvector/tsquery. But I would like to use "LIKE" operator with re-generated index for better search using language specific algorithm(e.g. Japanese).
Now search clause template is "@@ %s". I would like to replace it to "LIKE %s" or "LIKE func(%s)".
