  3. Emoji Picker

    Hi all,

    I see mattermost supports Emoji. It would be nice to have an Emoji picker, or at least auto complete when typing ":"

    Cheers!

  4. Detect and parse 3rd party links like twitter, youtube etc.

    We would like to see 3rd party links parsed, so a youtube link would provide a preview, a twitter link would show the tweet, an image posted from dropbox would provide a preview image.

  5. provide a native Go binary

    For the convenience of not having to resort to docker in environments where nginx / postgresql / node.js may already be running or deploying docker is not an option.
    Ideally, all platforms officially supported by Go but Linux & Mac OS X would be good to start

  6. Support OpenID Connect

    I've been waiting for a project like Mattermost for a while, so thanks!

    I would love it if you would add support for account registration/signin via OpenID Connect. I'd like to set up a Mattermost server for my community, but we use OpenID Connect to add SSO to everything.

  7. Auto focus cursor to message typing

    when switching a channel or private group or individual, it would be nice if the cursor focus is defaulted to "Write a message" text box.
    We have to click second time to type the message..

  8. add latex support

    For any deployment in a math-using organization or a research group, latex support is a killer feature. To the best of my knowledge, no native support exists in the competitor tools, and Slack has a rather cumbersome "translator bot" https://github.com/colbygk/mathslax. On the other hand, combining mathjax or katex with marked seems relatively common (e.g. https://github.com/ForbesLindesay/supermarked).

  9. Add Inline URL Previews

    Add auto-generated previews when a link is posted, showing the page title and a few lines of text.

    Original suggestion from forums - https://forum.mattermost.org/t/preview-urls-inline/312

  10. Add a search filter to the "More Channels" list

    It might be very inconvenient to search through every channels name/description manually. A text search on this fields to find a channel will do the job.

  12. Change favicon for new notifications

    There is currently support for new notifications via the Notifications API. However, once this notification disappears there are no indications that anything has changed. It would be helpful to change the favicon to indicate when a new, unread message/post has been received. This feature is found in Slack/WhatsApp/Messager currently work.

  13. Add title/summary line for YouTube previews

    Currently, configuring the YouTube API key will allow you to include previews of the video but will not include any form of context - the user must provide this. It would be good to include the title and brief summary of the video in each post, as seen when you share a video from the Android YouTube app to Hangouts etc.

  16. Add support for sending message to multiple users without creating a channel/group

    Sometimes you need to send message to an intersection of ppl groups or just part of a group. Right now one has to create a channel/group with the people you need and post there. Everytime for every different group of people. The feature could work pretty much like private messages, just allow to multi-select the users before sending the message

  19. add desktop notification via Notifications API

    User should be able to configure his notifications (which notifications to receive -mention, new message- and where - email, browser).
    For desktop notification there's a W3C API. IE doesn't support them (http://caniuse.com/#feat=notifications)
    Here's a wrapper https://github.com/alexgibson/notify.js
