Have the options for Team Edition to be able to restrict team invites
Currently, the option to restrict who can send team invites are only available for E10 and E20 editions of Mattermost.
Not having this functionality in the Team Editions of Mattemost can cause their instances to be potentially insecure as anyone can send out these invite links.

iOS Timeout/Logout Notification
iOS Timeout/Logout Notification
Based on being automatically logged out every 3 days; it has been a consistent problem having people recognize when they are no longer on and thus not receiving messages (iPhones wise at least). This has already been implemented for Android CAO 2018 according to the search bar.

Server-wide categories for your sidebar
The new feature "costume category" gives the option to re-sort your channels and also Direct Messages.
It would be great if that would work Server-wide and not only Team-wide.
Exspecially for Direct Messages it would help to be able to sort them. It could work like the "Favorite" which is also server-wide.
It could also be an option to have it server-wide optional by a setting12 votes -

Draw.io Integration
Similar to Boards, it would be advantageous to have the ability to draw charts collaboratively with the rest of the team within the MM app. Draw.io is an open source software with permissive licensing so it wouldn't be too much work to implement this feature relatively quickly.

Add Preview Functionality to Boards
If you open a document in a channel, you are able to preview it. It would be great to add that functionality to documents posted in Boards!

Allow larger header for a channel
Currently the header for a channel is short. I'd like to see this expanded to a block of text that wraps.

extend the "Manage Members" console to delete and configure a users profile
In some cases it could happen that a profile is broken or an administrator wants to completely remove a user from the system. (one example could be that an account was hacked an the system was fully spammed with senseless messages. Another example could be a test user and its messages).
An administrator should therefore be able to completely remove all arrears of such a users from the system. Furthermore he should be able to manage a user Profile to be able to disable notifications as an attendee or insert Profile Pictures to accounts.11 votes -

Improve team viewing
If I am a member of multiple teams I can't see all the chats in one place. I need to switch between teams to use them. It would be much better if I could see all channels/chats for all my teams on one screen.
Perhaps this could be achieved by having a collapsable menu for each team on the left that contains all the existing team specific functionality like channels etc. This would also help improve the notifications when receiving messages from multiple teams.

Don't play the notifiaction sound if your phone is muted
The android app is playing sound, when receiving notifications, even if my phone is on vibration. Probably due to the webview used.

Prevent keyboard from hiding after sending on native mobile apps.
Keyboard hides after clicking send button.
It would be better to persist the keyboard on screen after sending a message. This is a common use case for users to who want to send separate messages instead of creating paragraphs.
Hiding the keyboard should be triggered by the 'Done' button or touching the message display area.

town square
In a large organization the "Town Square" channel can be full of annoying non-work-related junk (e.g., zealots arguing over the merits of Ayn Rand's collective works). I should be able to exit the "Town Square" like any other channel. Likewise, I should be able to re-add "Town Square" if I so choose. Alternatively, administrators should be able to restrict posting to "Town Square" to administrators.

Use the "fallback" field from Slack's webhook attachment format as text for notification, when the provided text is empty.
The slack attachment format defines a fallback field, that is required for attachments to be valid, and is used when the full-formatted message is not usable in a particular context (e.g. text-mode clients, notifications).
For example, Slack uses that fallback field for the text of notifications. I believe that Mattermost should do the same.
That would require changes on the webhook-related code, on the format of the post object that is forwarded in Javascript, and on the code that generates the text shown in notifications. I could work on a PR if you are favorable to the idea.

load to my last message
The idea is to have a link, "load to my last message", right beside "Load more messages", the goal of it is to "load all chat messages up to the last time I talked in that channel", this way rather than seeing messages backwards, I can just click it and read the channel in order from the time I left it. Seems like a rather simple addition.
