allow an option to return to the old Social Network picker/selection at the top of the HootSuite window.
I just saw HootSuite updated with a new version of the Social Media account selector at the top of the HootSuite UI. Now it is a drop down list instead of the horizontal list of icons. This new version is much more difficult to use and I would appreciate an option to change back to the older version.

Add Google+ Personal Profiles
Many of you have been asking for Google+ profiles to be supported. A great idea, which we'll look into!
3,673 votesOnce Google makes this feature available to HootSuite, we would be thrilled to roll this out to our entire user base.

Give users the option to remove retweets from lists
With the Twitter API change on or about Apr 1 2013, twitter native retweets now can show up in lists. I'd like to turn them off and as per the dev documentation of a lists query for twitter, you can turn on or off native retweets with a simple flag (ow.ly/jGMvt). I'd tie this flag to a radio button for display native retweets yes/no when people add columns displaying a list.
36 votesThanks for your feedback with this recent change. We’ll look at the possibility of adding this feature into user options in the future.

allow images to appear in Facebook group postings rather than links
It is better to have the images uploaded as it is able to draw attention of potential clients. The image will auto describe our advertising status in multiple biz groups.
16 votesThank you for your feedback, we’ll be looking in whether this is possible with the Facebook API.

add the ability to post to Google+ communities
Will there or is there in the pipelines a way to post/monitor the new Google+ communities via the hootlet and ability to add the stream on the dashboard. Cheers
159 votesWith the new arrival of Google+ communities, we will further investigate the possibility of adding this in the future. Thank you for your requests!

Balloons and streamers should fall from the roof when you sign up for a Pro account.
When a customer signs up for a Pro account, there should be more fanfare. Balloons and streamers falling from the roof would be great way to do this.
Other alternatives could be Owly appearing at your front door to give you a hug or Dave Olson giving you an awesome high five through the screen, setting off an amazing sunny sequence with cars and explosions.

add functionality to reschedule a previously scheduled message.
It would be helpful to click a "reschedule" button for a past scheduled message instead of needing to copy/paste the old text. We have been using HootSuite for one week and already have found ourselves wanting this functionality several times.
48 votesGreat idea! We’ll look at adding this functionality in the future. Thanks!

Add some user options to Auto Scheduler
I like the Auto-Scheduler concept – I try to only post to our social network accounts about 3 times a day, however, and my first two “auto-scheduled” posts have been scheduled to go up within 45 minutes of each other.
Perhaps a customized setting where a user can specify a minimum time period between postings?

Implement Facebook 'Replies'
Now that Facebook allows users to 'reply' to individual comments, and especially now that they have expanded their API for it, it would be nice if we could reply to comments within Hootsuite.
17 votesAwesome idea, we’ll look at adding this in the future should Facebook make it available through the API.
Thanks! -

Message Tagging Analytics: inbound message detail
I would like to be able to run a report in Hootsuite Enterprise to not only see inbound tagging message counts, but also the actual content of the messages I tagged. In the end I need to export to CSV the message details from each tag.
10 votesThanks for the feedback! This would be a great addition to the Message Tagging functionality. We’ll review to see if this is possible.

Remove the Hootlet installation advisory when someone already have the extension installed.
I already have the Hootlet installed in Chrome, but you always show the advice to install the Hootlet into Chrome. Check it and make it invisible if someone have the Hootlet.

Add ability to schedule simultaneous posts in a particular order.
I often want to schedule a multi-part tweet but there is currently no way to ensure that two (or more) tweets scheduled to hit at the same time (eg. 2:45 PM) arrive in a particular order. Please consider adding a way to ensure that simultaneous tweets or status updates get sent in a user specified order.
3 votesInteresting idea! If you schedule them in order, do they not currently go out in the order they were scheduled?

Allow private messages for Facebook profile account
Although available for facebook pages, it would make my life a lot easier if I had this option on my profile account too.

allow scheduled tweets to be paused in bulk
Sometimes we get a call from a client to pause all activity for a period of hours/days because of some approval delay or unrelated crisis. At the moment we go into the Monthly view and drag all the scheduled stuff out an extra period of time. It would be great just to have a pause button that pauses all scheduled comms, ideally at a Team level (because a team usually works on content across one Twitter and one FB account)
16 votesInteresting idea! We’ll look at the options for adding this functionality in the future. Thanks!

Improve the resolution on the pictures for Facebook and Google+
When you upload a picture to Facebook and Google+ the resolution goes down and it has compression. So if this can get improved we would post more images using Hootsuite.
