Add emoji management via API
It would be nice to be able to add / remove custom emojis via API. Then it would be very simple to propose complete packs of custom emojis and apply them.

Allow to create a private Slash commands (only available for one user)
It could be interesting to add per user slash command.
For example, I use an RSS integration which allow me to manage my RSS feeds from Mattermost with Slash commands. I would like to set this command as private, to avoid other user to manage my feeds.3 votes -
Provide Channel description in tooltip in the left panel
Provide Channel description in tooltip in the left panel
Currently, we need to go to the channel, then click on the little arrow, then View Info
Personally, I spent 5 minutes to find this kind of information when I was checking that I didn't miss something and it is not yet available somewhere easily

Improve customization of push notification messages
Currently push notifications have very limited customizing potential. There is support to provide localized content, but the code assumes always prepends the sender's name to the notification text.

Custom intro text for system, team and channels
Custom intro text for a system, team or channel, similar in set up to Custom Tutorial Text with markdown support and preview, that is displayed to a user when joining a specific system, team or channel, and the user needs to hit "Okay" to dismiss. The user should be able to find the message in the system, team or channel settings to review the info.
Requesting this because often organizations want to share more about the purpose of their Mattermost deployment, and include different links, e.g. link to naming conventions to use for channels, an internal user's guide to the…

filter channels/users in the sidebar
It would be fantastic to have the option to search/filter in the sidebar.
In big organizations where you talk to many people, sometimes the sidebar gets enormous. A search field in top of the sidebar will allow to filter it and also search (when pressing Return)It "should" keep the headers (favorites, channels, users) to keep it simple.

possibility to re-link uploaded images
When you upload or drag'n'drop an image to mattermost, that image gains a new name that does not end with an image extension, thus if you try to "copy image location" or use the "copy public link" from mattermost their will give u a link that you can paste back to matter most to re-link the image in a preview mode.
A copy public link will look like:
And copy image location will look like:
https://pre-release.mattermost.com/api/v3/files/zkqjspdektrqjde9xqnp7ef1er/get_preview
As you can see neither end with a image extension and so if I simple paste it back in a message it will…

Show the channel the incoming webhook has been set to
Currently I cannot find a way to know for which channel has been configured an incoming webhook (in my case, for integration with GitLab).
In the "Integrations/Incoming Webhooks" section, just appear the name of the webhook and the webhook URL it self, without saying for which channel has been set, and the option of deleting it. And in the GitLab side there's no way to know for which channel will be triggered the hook.
This come become a problem when you have several webhooks and channels.

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.

Restore should be in Team edition or Channel delete in Team edition should be permanent
If i delete a channel i cannot create a new one with same name. nor can i restore the previous channel without enterprise edition.
I suggest to move feature of restoring to Team edition. Alternatively make channel deletions permanent so another channel with same name can be created.

Hotlink preview for uploaded image instead of thumbnail
When uploading images it will be nice to have a preview features (like when entering an image through a link) instead of the current generated thumbnail which is not very representative of the image. This is somehow how Slack is showing uploaded image.

open the emoji picker with typing ":", followed by pressing Tab
I'd really like to see the emoji picker that can be activated as described in the title, instead of the ":" followed by minimum of 2 characters as it is at the moment.
I'm aware of the full picker ticket https://mattermost.atlassian.net/browse/PLT-2354, but as i understand it doesn't include this feature.1 vote -

Custom tutorial text
Enable the setting of custom tutorial text for the three tutorial intro screens, with markdown formatting support and preview of the messages to be sent.
As a secondary priority, enable the setting of different messages based on the preferences of the end user, defaulting to English if no message is set.
Requesting this because often organizations want to share more about the purpose of their Mattermost deployment, and include different links, e.g. link to naming conventions to use for channels, an internal user's guide to the key features in the system intended to be used, perhaps a video introduction from…

copy existing mattermost token to other teams
Currently there are many integrations via webhook / slash commands that need a specific token to be set up in the configuration.
if you want to use the same slash command for several teams its not possible without updating the database manually with the same token you used before in another team.
the best option would be something like a seperate option to set the generated token id manually, so its possible to use 1 token for 1 integration for all teams that are created in mattermost.
Did the same manually in the mattermost database, by selecting the commands table…

Markup to directly navigate to the ticket on Redmine, a small overview of the ticket as well.
Markup to directly navigate to the ticket on Redmine, a small overview of the ticket as well. For example, when I refer to a ticket I use #ticket_no. This could be parsed by the parser and replaced by an href that points to the ticket

Show filenames after dragging a file into a message
Currently when you drag a file into a message the name of the file isn't shown until you send a message. It would be nice if the filename could be displayed before sending so that you can confirm the right file was dragged in.

smtp authorization support request
for most small company, there is no ldap servier or sso. but all most have email service, self hosted or saas like google mail.
if there is a authorization type called smtp authorization like oauth2(google,gitlab...), it will make company helpful more without make another authorization system, bothered with account management.3 votes -
Offensive Words Filter
In a professional environment, it would not be polite to allow some kind of language specially in open channels. It would be very useful for admins to handle a small database of words not permitted in their channel and a filter that replaces the "offending words" for symbols or other words defined by them.
