Include channel creation and management restrictions in team edition
I know these features were left out of Team Edition to keep it simple, but these options are present in the config.json file.
Enabling this features from just the config.json file would keep the team edition ui simple, but give smaller teams the same ability to control the whims of their users

Disable notifications functionality for defined period of time
As a user I want to deactivate Mattermost notifications in my windows desktop application for a defined period of time. After this period the notifications will be shown as before.
I can predefine in the period in the setings.
I would like to activate this function by right clicking on the system tray icon and choose the action.3 votes -
Invite users ignoring white list
We are using mattermost at our university and have a whitelist set-up so only people from our university can join. However some teams have indicated they want to cooperate with others who are not officially affiliated with our university and thus have no university e-mail address.
We would like an option for sysadmins to invite these users to the server.

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…

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.

Make new posts stand out more
When there are multiple teams, when a new post is made to another team, it is difficult for users to notice it. I want you to show it with an impact that would reverse the color information of the icon.
The same can be said for the channel name display within each team. It is difficult to understand with the current bold display.3 votes -
Clarified "Channel Purpose"
The "purpose" element of each channel is very difficult to see. Information such as who created this channel doesn't need to be noticeable. The necessary "purpose" statement is buried in the information. I want at least the "purpose" statement to bold the font.
I want to hide or move information other than the purpose.3 votes -
Clearer notification for plugin upload failure (size limit)
I was receiving a generic "Received invalid response from the server" messages when trying to upload the BigBlueButton plugin. I eventually discovered that it was because the Maximum File Size was configured to 5MB.
A clear message stating either what the "invalid response" was or flagging the issue as "too large of a file" size would be less generic and easier to troubleshoot.

Add the team name to any notification emails
Please add the team name to any notification emails sent by MM. While we have few teams with common channel names, it is really confusing from email body which team it is.

Change custom attributes to support user set attribute values
Custom attributes should optionally support having both a name and a value at the point of definition by the system admin.
They would be as currently assigned to users/teams/group as
appropriate. The value of the attribute could then be set at this time or by the user, team/group owner in a custom attribute extension to the user profile or similarly for for teams and group. Support for attributes of type simple
(no value, current behavior), required (must be set), overridable (can be changed or not from value set by system) could also be added.
An extension to markdown to return…3 votes -
Admins should be able to see statistics of different channels too.
Right now mattermost provides statistics at App level and at Team level. It would be really helpful if admins can see stats of different public/private channels too.
That means if I have 15 different channels, I can stats of all of them and pick which one is being used the most and which is least.
What do you think guys?

make /commands referencable in post-text.
There are interactive message buttons, but they dont flow neatly in the text. It should be possible to write a longer post, and reference commands and parameters in the text.
Once the post is posted, they become clickable by everyone which would in some way ask for confirmation or just pre-fill the text-input-area and allow the users to execute said command.That way one could not even better educate users of (custom) commands, but could also help them prefill the arguments of commands.
Example: I could write:
hello there, it seems, like you want to use
/command asdffor asdf…3 votes -
Allow users, or server admins to configure the width of the channel switcher
Webapp
Some of our channel names are just a little too long for the channel switcher, it'd be great to have an extra 50px so they fit in properly and don't get truncated.
It would be great if this was an option for users, or even as just a config setting in the server/webapp

make an admin be able to differ between inactive and disabled users
The problem of the current situation is, that an administrator yet is only able to set an user account status to "inactive". This means more a disabling of the user, because the user is in no longer able to log in. In fact, he is locked out.
It would be more appropriate to rename the status "inactive" to "disabled".A new status "inactive" should be introduced where a user is in fact using the featureset of a "team edition". No license is acuired for this user and he doesn't get any push notifications anymore until he logs in again. By…

Use clocks to easily create and view threads
This feature is really usefull to identify and follow different conversations in a channel.
When you click on a clock, it adds the clock in the beginning of the post (or at the position of the cursor).
When you hover on a clock in a post, it highlights the referring post and the answers to this post.You can see a demo there : http://sveetch.net/tribune/

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 -
