Make search work as it should.
Currently, search is horribly broken for technical conversations. For example, given a post which contains a log message, such as:
PROBLEM srvnagios at 10.4.1.74/MYSQL_threads-connected is WARNINGA search for MYSQL will not show this as a result. This is, certainly, just an example and it's been relayed that this is by design due to a lack of support for preceding wildcards (which shouldn't be needed anyway). Simply typing MYSQL in the text box should return any string that contains MYSQL or mysql.

More Granular Session lengths for SSO authentication
Currently the configurations for SSO authentication session lengths allow for a single digit value representing days that the authenticated session will last before expiring and forcing a re-authentication.
There has been quite a bit of interest within my teams to have this more granular, specifically down to a number of hours (with our preference being somewhere around the length of a work day- 8hours). By doing something less than a single day, with people having varying schedules, it would guarantee that almost everyone will need to re-authenticate when coming back to work. As is, it can happy sporadically depending on…

Email notification for any activity (without mention)
Currently, the notification system allows:
- Getting browser desktop notification for any activity
- Getting email notification for mentions
I'd like to have the mix: get email notification for any activity when I'm not logged-in. Many systems allow this (eg. gitter's "You have unread messages" emails), but I couldn't find it in Mattermost.
Ideally, the system would :
- Wait a few minutes before sending the notification, to send a mail containing several messages at once.
- Send only one notification even if there are further messages, to avoid flooding the mailbox with tons of emails
This would be very useful to follow low…

Push-to-Talk
While "texting", I would like to be able to transmit an ad hoc sound bite, so that I can quickly verbalize something without having to start a call session - not store-and-forward, but immediate live voice, Star Trek comm badge style.
I'm glad I ran into you guys in Punta Cana!

Add an API for getting private channels
As a system admin using the API, it would be useful to get a list of private channels for a team.
Currently, one can get posts for private channels through the
channels/{channel_id}/postsAPI, but that assumes that the admin knows the channel_id. Finding that ID cannot be done through the API.Use case: for reporting purposes, we want to get the count of messages per private channel each month.

Limit number of times animated emoji will loop
When users have their mattermost window open all the time, animated emoji that are endlessly looping can be very distracting and annoying. If they paused after looping a set number of times, it would greatly improve the user experience for me.

Option in a channel: force view pinned posts
In some channels some messages are ‘must read’...
An option ‘I have read this one’ would be great then.
It would also be nice to be able to reorder the pinned posts.6 votes -
Embed Calender, etc
It would be nice if there would be the possibility to create channels in which you could fix an embed content in the upper area. E.g. a Google calendar which shows the weekly overview or an external service for data storage etc..
Alternatively, a bot that writes the Daily Todos in a channel like slack would be possible: https://get.slack.help/hc/de/articles/206329808-Google-Kalender-f%C3%BCr-Slack

one file installation on hosted servers
The installation should be only depending on a ftp-access to a hosted server storing data in flat files. Second best would be mysql connection.

Include private channels to search based on current user membership
Make Mattermost API channels search method
( /teams/{team_id}/channels/search )
to include private channels where the current user is a member.E.g. if the user A is a member of channel B and user A performs channel search, it will get channel B in a response from server if B matches the term.
In Mattermost 5.5.0 search returns only public channels in results. The only way to find channel by display name is to get all channels current user is a member of and iterate over them on client side.

Add "edited by admin" when admin edit someone's message
Team admin can edit users messages (when option is available) but it can be usefull to specify when it's not the user himself that edit, but an admin.
Proposal: add "(edited by admin)" instead of "(edited")

Auto converted date time
In cases of a international team managing time zone is often difficult. It would be great if Mattermost supported some kind of timezone conversion. A user can choose his timezone in settings and when posting dates or times in a chat, a special syntax, probably something along the lines of (12:00 PM) would be required. The clients will auto convert the time to local users timezone while displaying. This could be an opt-in feature.

Galera cluster support
Galera cluster provides multi master SQL database (e.g. upon MariaDB or MySQL) and can help strengthen the database backend. As it easy to deal with mattermost-server outages (simply run another instance very quickly), it is mostly painfull to deal with single DB outage.
Galera cluster can be supported in a direct way - add all db nodes to the configuration and use it in balanced way or as a fallback - or can be used via haproxy or similar.

rename flag post to bookmarked post
Users seem to expect that "Flag post" means "Report post" and do not think of it as a way to bookmark posts.
Especially as in the web-app "flag post" is not displayed along the other post-actions, but instead by the side of the posting username.
I already filed that as a github issue: https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server/issues/9990

Teamspeak Plugin Integration
Teamspeak is the top voice chat app in the market.
I suggest to have a MM integration plugin.
It needs to work on Browser and MM clients too.

It would be great if the search for the field position was possible.
i can't find any persons in channel or in personal messages by Position.
For example i have 3 "web-developer" users, and 2 "c# developers", i can find then by FirstName, LastName, nickname but field "Position" is out of search.
It would be great if the search for the field position was possible.

Would anyone be interested helping contribute the feature? If you are, get started here: https://developers.mattermost.com/contribute/getting-started/

Add the posibility to select a default team afer login
Add the possibility to set a "default" team for every user. Currently the teams i am a member of are sorted alphabetically. If I login via GitLab the first team is selected.
I would like to have the option to select a "default" team which is automatically selected after login and not the first in an alphabetically order.53 votes -
User should be able to archive a thread
Summary (Feature Request)
As a Mattermost user (Manager/Admin of channel)
I would like to close some discussion which is not needed anymore in the main channel (have been resolved)
so that I can reduce the content noise in the channel content in the channel by displaying relevant content.
Observed behavior (that appears unintentional)
In any channel where there are a lot of people, there is always much noise. I would like to archive those threads which are not needed anymore and display the relevant content in the main view.
Usually, it might be discussions which end with some result/agreement, but…
