Add context menu for messages on desktop client
The same menu that shows when clicking the "..." icon to the right, including reactions and reply, should appear when right-clicking on any given message.
It is a major usability inconvenient when using a large screen, to have to move the mouse all the way to the right edge of the screen in order to click that.

Show nicknames on each line while in compact mode
There should be an option to show the nickname on each line, when using compact mode. As a long-time IRC user, I expect to have the name repeated on each line.
This is specially annoying when the "New Messages" marker shows, where it should ALWAYS show the name in the line following the marker.20 votes -
Make emoji replacement a separate option from the rest of post formatting
I consider it unacceptable that I can't choose to disable having my words replaced with emoji, without also having to give up on EVERY SINGLE post formatting feature. I want to be able to use post formatting, just NOT have any emoji appear without me explicitly choosing to insert them.

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.

Set user position when user create, in Command Line Tools
The option 'user create' in the Command Line Tools is email, firstname, lastname, locale, nickname, password, username, system_admin. There is no "position".
I would like an option to set "position".1 vote -

Allow resizing and hiding of sidebar
It would be nice to be able to click/drag the sidebar (where channels are) and resize it/ hide it if desired.
Resizing it and having a channel name abbreviated with ... could make sense;
ex: Town Square once it starts getting cut off would become Tow... (depending on how small you make the sidebar). Then if you go over far enough it snaps into a hidden position

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

Dismiss a direct group messaging
We created a group chat of up to 7 people, but when we finished the group chat, we can't dismiss the group. Group members can only remove the group from the private channel, and can not dismiss the group. Other members can still see the group and send messages. The removed group will appear in the private channel again when other member send a message.
I hope that the creator of the group chat can dismiss the group, and all members of the group will leave the group after the dissolution.23 votes -
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.

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.

Be able to prepend * to search
Either i am misunderstanding something or the search function is currently subpar. One can append * to search terms, ie searching for foo* will return bar. But *bar does not return foobar. It should imo.
Furthermore, * does not seem to account for anything other than alphanumeric characters. I was expecting http* to return all links, but no.
Stellar app otherwise!

Improve Team Notification with multiple teams
When Users are in multiple teams, it is at the moment hard to see in which team are unread messages. There is just a small dot near the team and that is hard to recognize.
When you got a mention, Mattermost is adding a dot with a number on the team.
I suggest to use this dot for mentioning but just without the number for improving the visibility of unread messages without mentions.

Create the option to show the entire message in notifications.
It would be great if I can enable the option to show the entire message in notifications. Currently only the beginning of the message is passed to notification system.

zoom inside picture
Hello,
I think it could be a really good idea to have the possibility to zoom inside shared picture. Sometimes it's too small, we need to download it and then zoom inside it.thanks

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.
