Add badge for new messages that's visible in a pinned tab.
When you've pinned a tab on your browser the badge that appears to show new messages within the client isn't visible. At best you have to hover to see a (*) that denotes new messages.
There should be an immediately visible badge on a pinned tab for unread messages.

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 -

iOS and Android apps should allow users to bypass certificate warning
iOS and Android apps should allow users to bypass certificate warning. Some of us don't have proper certs and use the application for small teams, and don't have the resources to get proper web certificates.

Support gitlab avatar
When a user signup using gitlab sso, it would be nice if mattermost imports the avatar image as the user's profile picture.

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.

Show all threads in one place
Option to show all threads in which a user participates in one place. Ask from Startup School.
Note: By default mention notifications for threads aren't turned on, maybe we should default them to on to see to what extent this helps.

Visual effect to separate private chats from channels
I'd like to somehow tune the color scheme of the Mattermost to separate private chats from channels. First idea that I got my mind is that maybe there could be an option to set a different background color for private conversations?

Integrate mattermost with asterisk
I wish I could somehow have someone use an asterisk pbx and integrate it with asterisk. This way, if I click on a user, and they are available OK their soft phone installed on their mobile which connected to the asterisk pbx, I could call them. If they are already on their computer, I believe the latest version of mattermost would allow me to speak to them via chrome (webrtc). However, it would be nice to integrate an open source pbx with mattermost.

Add turnkey support for Auth0 as an identity provider
As described at https://forum.mattermost.org/t/auth0-single-sign-on/6728
As a mattermost administrator, I want to be able to configure authentication with Auth0 as an identity provider. Auth0 supports a variety of standards, so it might be best to implement it as OpenID Connect.

Text-to-speech accessibility support for at least one client interface if not all
The Mac OS/X Desktop Client for Mattermost has never supported text-to-speech with would make my interaction as a low vision (legally blind) user much easier. Until recently, I was able to at least get that functionality in the web-based interface with Chrome but that is also no longer working. I can't even set up the iphone app because the first step of entering the server is incompatible with Voice Over. If I was totally blind, I couldn't use the application at all. The only reason I use it is for work as my employer has adopted it as our enterprise…

Make 'reply to last message in a channel' a default option
Enable the ability for a user org/admin to make 'reply to the last message in a channel' the default option when starting a new message, so threads are the default for a conversation. This could perhaps also be optionally limited to replies that explicitly start with or contain an 'at-mention' of the handle of the creator of the original post.

Channel modes
We tend to use the channels in two different ways. Some channels are for chat; a stream of short messages. Other channels have more in-depth messages (like explanations, articles, meeting notes, etc.). In those latter channels, to communication focuses less on a single stream, and more on the replies.
Currently Mattermost solely focuses on chat streams (chat mode), having replies as an option (literally on the side).
I want to suggest an extra mode: topic mode. It differs from the chat mode in the sense that:
- The main might only show the topics (first level messages), not the replies.…18 votes -

Privacy option to disable disclosure of online presence
I would like options to control all the possible ways that my online presence can be disclosed by Mattermost, including:
1) any kind of online status indication
2) any kind of idle/away status indication (not sure if this exists today)
3) the indication to others that I am typing
Sometimes, users prefer to lurk... that means not revealing any kind of online presence.

Automatically expand permalinked messages
When you paste a permalink in the channel, it displays as any other
link. It would be great if these were automatically recognized, and
expanded with a preview of the message (similar to when you reply to a message), together with the Jump button so you can easily jump to that point in history without reloading the entire tab (or opening a new
tab).18 votes -
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…
