Team admin should be able to export datas
Right now, only mattermost instance admin can export teams but only all teams.
There is two issues:- first: we can't export one team (see this request: https://mattermost.uservoice.com/forums/306457-general/suggestions/39225376-mattermost-bulk-export-single-selected-team)
- second: it's the instance admin job to export
It would be a great improvement if team admin could use the user interface (and not has to ask to his instance admin).

Better wording for account deactivation
When a user want to delete his account, he can think "deactivation" is enough but doesn't necessarily know that it just means that he cannot log anymore…
Maybe (in advanced settings):
"By deactivating your account you will no longer be able to log in but the messages will be kept. To permanently delete your account and your messages, please contact your administrator."
And a similar (or the same) message in email notification.

System Administrator: Ability to Import Users via CSV / Excel File
While system administrator are limited to only have the following methods to create / import users:
* Local users: mattermost user create CLI, direct invite, team invite link
* External users: LDAP / AD / SAMLIt will be good to have the ability to use CSV or Excel file to bulk import the users with specific formatting especially if the organization has a lot of customers and is not utilizing AD / LDAP / SSO.

API: Add new_msg_count to /users/me/teams/{{team_id}}/channels/members
Currently you need to make two calls to get the total count of unread messages or to get the count of unread messages from a single channel (
/users/me/teams/{{team_id}}/channelsand/users/me/teams/{{team_id}}/channels/members).To avoid the first request, it would be nice to have a new property e.g.
new_msg_countthat returns the current new message count for a channel. This is currently only possible by substracting themsg_count(second request) from thetotal_msg_count(first request).This topic has already been discussed on github: https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost-server/issues/8591#issuecomment-383909505

Prevent non-admin users from posting and editing to channel
The use case is to provide information to users, for example, release notes, status updates, etc. In order to keep the channel relevant and to avoid clutter, non-admin users have read-only access.
This feature allows a team to create "reference" channels.
- team admins: create, read, update, delete
- non-admin users: read-only
This idea is similar to, and currently under review for Enterprise Edition:

increase the 22 character limit on channel names.
Slack recently increased their character limitation on channel names. We would like Mattermost to increase the limit as well, as this has been a helpful feature since it was rolled out.

Disable the "More Actions" tooltip when the menu is already open
On the [...] button on the right side of a message, there's a tooltip displaying the text "More Actions". When I click on this button, the menu pops up and then the tooltip appears, blocking the "Edit" menu item. The tooltip should never be allowed to pop up if the menu is already open.

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…

Quote Reply In Threads
In a thread, because we cant create subthreads, the comment menu should have a new item called "quote reply".
"Quote Reply" should allow the user to add a new comment with reference from the comment he is replying.
A : I like cars.
A : Wanna go for pizza? <-- "Quote Reply"
B : I like Ferrari.
B : "Wanna go for pizza?"
Yes. Pizza is a great idea.40 votes -

transform message to into an answer to message above
people are often sloppy in using answers to messages and just type it to the channel when it should be an answer to the message above.
I propose a button visible to the author and admins that allows to transform a message into an answer to the message above.
I hope it'll help to create more consistency in the usage of the answer/thread feature.11 votesPlanned with this ticket: https://mattermost.atlassian.net/browse/MM-35848

add newlines with CTRL+ENTER (like in Slack and Skype)
this is the opposite of the current setting:
ENTER inserts a new line and CTRL+ENTER submits the message.8 votes -
Add Gitea OAuth2 Support
Support Gitea's OAuth2 provider as an authentication source.
Currently, the team edition only supports GitLab as an OAuth2 source. GitLab is pretty heavyweight and many people prefer other software for a variety of reasons.
Gitea (https://gitea.io/en-us/) is a really nice open source, community supported Git server. They recently added support for acting as an OAuth2 provider (see https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/oauth2-provider/ for documentation). It would be great if Mattermost would support Gitea as an OAuth2 provider.

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.

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")

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 -
Directory of public channels/channels I can have access to
A user should be able to easily see & search the list of all channels they have joined and can join. I'm seeing a number of duplicate channels created across teams because the user did not know it existed in another location.
