should implement an admin interface to the System Console to make the server auto update to the latest MM release
It would be great to make admins life easier to develop an auto admin function to Mattermost that on click downloads, installs and updates the given installation, so the admin doesn't need terminal or root access anymore. Especially renewing the config (put the existing entries in the new/extended config) would be helpful.

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

Create a "already used tags" drop down menu when typing # , based on the already used hashtags
To preserve or moderate a given thread , theme or channel, tagging them makes the search much easier afterwards. But to make sure, that the given hashtags will be the same (tag cloud?), by typing # a dropdown should show up with already used tags. Behavior could be the same lile with @ or :(for smileys!).

Configurable desktop notifications duration
Mattermost is intended to be team collaboration and messaging tool.
It functions fine when working with channels which are similar to forums or IRC channels.But when sending direct messages, the user experience is quite bad because desktop notifications disappear after 5 seconds and when user is concentrating to something else or is AFK he will miss the notification and doesn't know that someone is trying to reach him.
It would be great if there was a configuration option where user can choose how long the notification should be displayed.
This feature was already implemented in v3.4, but was removed…

allow admins to set the default channels when a member joins
It was nice in Slack to say for the batch of invitees that have been recently invited that they be thrown into channels x, y, z instead of having to manually Add Member to varying channels or ask them to seek out channels and add themselves.
135 votesHey all! The work has now started and we’ve released an experimental setting for default channels.
System Admins can configure default channels via config.json, here is more information about it https://docs.mattermost.com/administration/config-settings.html#default-channels-experimental
Big thanks to @dschalla for contributing this improvement!

Integration with matrix.org

Easily change default channel town-square
Across Go and React code, town-square channel is hardcoded. Maybe we can make it configuration-based so teams can easily change it and the platform can redirect correctly to /channel/<new name>.
However doing this, we also have to change the mobile app code e.g. https://github.com/mattermost/android/blob/master/app/src/main/java/com/mattermost/mattermost/MainActivity.java#L137 code.

Add Gitea OAuth2 Support
Support Gitea's OAuth2 provider as an authentication source.
Currently, the team edition only supports GitLab as an OAuth2 source. GitLab is pretty heavyweight and many people prefer other software for a variety of reasons.
Gitea (https://gitea.io/en-us/) is a really nice open source, community supported Git server. They recently added support for acting as an OAuth2 provider (see https://docs.gitea.io/en-us/oauth2-provider/ for documentation). It would be great if Mattermost would support Gitea as an OAuth2 provider.

Have "Unread" option showing all unread messages and notifications across all channels
Slack has something similar that shows above all channels. It makes it easy to browse through your unread messages without having to click each channel separately.

Create an editable message ('wikipost')
Our team documents project features by posting and re-editing posts. (They can then be flagged, or in future, made sticky, to keep them at hand.)
What would be useful here is to make a post that I choose to allow others to edit, in a wiki or confluence-style.

Preinstalled "matter-bot"
I´m just stealing the idea from slack ;)
I would like to see a simple bot that I can configure much like the "Slack Bot" (https://get.slack.help/hc/en-us/articles/202026038-Slackbot-your-assistant-notepad-programmable-bot)
This is a great and simple way to get started with bots!

Uploaded mp4 video files should display with the play controls and preview frame
ummary: Uploaded mp4 video files should display with the play controls and preview frame directly inside the channel for recognizability and immediate playback.
Description: Just as image files received an image preview feature with 4.7 I would like to suggest the same behavior for mp4 video files. Currently there is only an icon and file information in the channel. With a lot of videos uploaded to a channel it becomes hard to distinguish the files.
Also, adding the video play controls below would make it faster to browse through videos.
Could this be implemented using the html5 <video> tag with…

Edit default emojis
We use the default emojis and the custom emojis in our Mattermost. To custom it even more, we would like to edit the full set of default emojis (not create new ones) e.G.
:D.The proposition could be done in several parts:
- setup in the administration panel a way to edit the picture for one default emoji
- setup a way from the administration panel to import a set of emojis to replace the default ones
- setup in the administration panel a way to reset the default emojis to the original ones
- update mobile applications to…109 votes -
Tasks Management
I would really like to have a task management feature or app integration.
As I'm using Glip for some projects (as guest, not for my company, to avoid the Data trap you know very well from Slack :-), the best way is to see how it works here:
