Allow log-in through Twitter
It seems odd you don't allow for people who only have one social media account
1 voteGreat idea! We’ll look at adding this in the future.

Make HootSuite tags more visible
Two aspects to this - can we make tags visible to users viewing a stream without the need to go into 'add tags' (only to find that it's already tagged). Possibly add them to the assignment/notes header bar?
Secondly, can you enable 'add tags' and visibility of existing tags for the Assignments page - at the moment, our users have to go back to the stream to check these, as they're not displayed when they pick up an assignment. Thanks!
1 voteGreat idea! Tags are relatively new to the dashboard, and we’re always looking for feedback on how to improve this experience. Thanks!

AutoSchedule and more pictures
I'd like to choosing from different pictures into a web before to share in AutoSchedule...
1 voteInteresting suggestion. We’ll consider it as a way that might make autoscheduling more interesting.

Geotarget by county.
It is very time consuming to type each individual city in large counties like San Diego and Los Angeles when you want to target the whole county.
1 voteThanks for this suggestion. We’ll look into the possibility of doing this in the future.

add pictures in facebook grups
Hootsuite shows thumnails when posting in grups but it is not as good as the full picture. People are not interested in the thumnail. Will this be something you will add soon?
1 voteWe’d love to add this functionality in the future and will look into whether the API will allow us to do so.

Add a Twitter stream to track those who stopped following a given account
Based on a 7 day look back determine who stopped following any given Twitter account.
1 voteGreat suggestion. We’ll consider it.

RSS feeds into column for selective editing and posting
It would be great to have a seperate column for the RSS feeds. This would mean they are exported to the column for drip feeding and editing/deleting. If this actually exists already my apologies ut can't see how to set it up
1 voteThis would be a great feature to approve and edit RSS feeds before they go out. Currently, you can add an RSS reader to your dashboard, and then go through to choose which ones to post for later. You can add this RSS Reader to your dashboard from the App Directory. Please let me know if you have any questions in using this.

Create a unique Hootsuite browser
I currently use the Rockmelt browser because of its Facebook integration, but I'd drop it in a second if Hootsuite published its own browser.
1 voteWe’re always looking at innovative ways for fan to use our product.

you send confirmation emails after signing in
Tha way you avoid, in case someone accidetally signed in with a wrong email address, that the twitter name/account is already taken and blocked. Happend to me: had a spelling mistake in my email address, forgot my password and - since I can't receive the new passform email - now can't login anymore nor sign up for my own accout under the real email address... :(
so, approval message and something like that can't happen.1 voteWe’ll look into further ways to resolve matters involving misspelled email addresses.

social icons schedule
I would like to always have a icon of the social network or different choosable color, for the scheduled messages.
Now they only show in "list", but not in the day, week or month planner.1 voteGreat idea! We’ll look at ways to make scheduled posts’ social networks more easily identified in the future. Thanks!

Allow Users to Set Different Timezones for Different Clients
Not all my clients are in the same timezone and it's painful converting it when I schedule - ideally if I want to schedule a post for 1pm I don't want to have to do timezone maths every time - this is definitely something where I will make errors.
I have clients in 3 different timezones, so it would be great if I could somehow alter the settings for each network!

Interesting idea! We’ll look at doing this in the future. Have you tried auto-scheduling? It chooses the best time for each network individually, so you won’t have to worry about timezones. Let me know how it goes! :)

Access specific tweet more efficiently
I frequently encounter twitter.com status links that I'd like to answer within HootSuite to keep an audit trail. If all I have is a specific Twitter status URL, I'd like an easier way (easier than picking through the stream manually) to access it within HootSuite to assign, respond, etc.
1 voteWe’d love to incorporate Twitter status links into the search somehow. Thanks for the feedback!
-
Schedule the same post for different dates/times
There needs to be an option where you can select different dates and times for the same post. This is very necessary when you manage too many pages.

Persist Publisher view
In the Publisher View, save the selected view state (list, day, week, month), filters, and position of the calendar (like which month I left it on).
1 voteThis would be a great enhancement for Publisher.

be able to select your Facebook account along with your Twitter account(s) when re-tweeting something from the mobile app (Android).
When re-tweeting something on the mobile app, you can select which Twitter account (or multiple accounts) you wish to re-tweet to. It would be nice to also be able to select your Facebook account along with the Twitter accounts and post the re-tweet as a Facebook post. (Dare I say, this is the one thing I miss in HootSuite that I was able to do with the TweetDeck app.) Thanks-
