Let admins allow anonymous posts / anonymous channels
A setting that allows users to make anonymous posts. Or that forces all posts in a given channel to be anonymous.
On a trusted server, this gives users a safe place to make anonymous statements.
Similar to the "Anonymous posting" feature of Discourse: https://www.discourse.org/about/
Enable anonymous posting mode and your users can easily switch to anonymous mode to post about controversial, dangerous, or political issues without fear.

Create an ARM build pathway
Right now there's no approved way to do mattermost on ARM. I think ti'd be a great idea to fix that, and I'm working on fixing it myself. If I get a definitive result, I will post it in the regular forums and/or submit a pull request.

Order DM and Members list by online indicator
- Member list (popup box) in the header
- Direct Messages list
- If you can change order by in this lists to order first by online status, then second by name, then it could be more useful.
5 votesThe member list in the channel header now orders members by their online status and then by their name.

Better /me command style
/me command has very poor style distinction. It only uses italics but it is enclosed in a dialog balloon as any other message.
It is more distinguishable, for example, when the system balloon tells join/leave actions in 3rd person. I think something like that would be more accurate for the /me command.

FreeBSD support
It would be great it mattermost is supported in FreeBSD.
I think in order to support more OS, specially BSD unixes, mattermost should not depend from Docker.
For instance Docker doesn't well supported on FreeBSD.178 votes -
should implement an admin interface to the System Console to make the server auto update to the latest MM release
It would be great to make admins life easier to develop an auto admin function to Mattermost that on click downloads, installs and updates the given installation, so the admin doesn't need terminal or root access anymore. Especially renewing the config (put the existing entries in the new/extended config) would be helpful.

way to turn off emoticons?
from https://github.com/mattermost/platform/issues/1982, Skype etc. allow you to turn off emoticons, so that you get the raw text input instead of the converted smiley face. Not everyone appreciates chat filled with emoji, so it'd be a nice feature to have emoticon rendering a setting people can turn on or off (note that this is about MM-conversion of one an ASCII sequence into an emoticon. If someone types an actual unicode emoji, then that's what they intended to type. But if someone types a colon, a dash, and a closing parenthesis, they did not type a smiley icon, and not everyone…

Assign User to incoming Webhooks
Hey,
we run Mattermost and have some webhooks set up for Taiga ( https://taiga.io ). We created a User "Taiga-Bot" for our webhooks.Right now the webhook is always assigned to the user that created given webhook.
I'd like to have an option to assign already created/new webhooks to any user as long that I'm logged in with a sysAdmin account.

Option to disable user "Access History"
Mattermost seems to log all user IP as a default.
Maybe it would be a nice option to opt-out per user or system wide the logging of all IP addresses.4 votes -

Enable integration on all teams
We host multiple teams that need the same slash command. It would be pretty useful to be able to setup the integration once for all the teams.

Implement changing channel ownership
There is currently no method for changing the owner of a channel.
- A channel owner should be able to assign ownership of their channel to another user
- Team admins and System Admins should be able to assign ownership of any channel to another user

Ability to customize the site favicon
When a user interacts with several Mattermost instances having always the same favicon can get highly confusing.
With versions pre-3.0 it was fairly easy to directly change the favicon files on the installation. It looks way more complex since the 3.0 came out as the file names are no longer predictable

Add better filters/search for messages and attachments
Have a panel in the sidebar (similar to Slack) to view all available files/your files for the team/channel. Filters by file type and being able to search the filename would also be nice.
Have additional search filters (again similar to Slack) such as the time/duration or the has: qualifier (e.g. has: link)

Auto/Periodic Refresh of Channel Header
Some users find themselves navigating through multiple channels quite frequently; while others find themselves "squatting". My team happens to be full of the those that squat largely because we use one channel per project, and one build per project. We'd like to include the build shield/badge images into the header (which is currently possible); however, since the channel header is never refreshed, individuals must rely solely on messages within the channel to bring the current build status to their attention.
Either adding an auto-refresh to all channel headers, or allowing administrators to selectively enable a channel header for periodic update/refresh…

Make search results accessible via a URL
It would be handy if search results were dereferencable via a URL.
Not all communications in our org are done via MatterMost (email is still popular) and I would like the ability to link to search results via a URL such as https://mattermost.org.com/search/search-term
This would enable me to refer to (ever-changing) search results from places external to MatterMost.

For file storage, add support for Google Cloud Storage
For users who don't want to or can't use Amazon S3 or local filesystem, adding support for Google Cloud Storage improves the "Cloud portability" of Mattermost, in addition to supporting more use cases.

Create a Sandstorm app
Mattermost seems to be a good candidate for making a Sandstorm app. Sandstorm https://sandstorm.io/ allows for secure bottling of web-apps. Many of the apps currently in the ecosystem are complementary to Mattermost - in function and ideology.
