    • configure the Auto-Schedule function to not delay RTs and replies

      Instead of kicking the toggle back and forth between Auto-Schedule and not, I would like to see a way that RTs or replies are not auto-scheduled and it is recognized that, that information should be sent in real time.

        This is an excellent feature suggestion, and we’ll continue to monitor how many users would like to implement this feature.

        • Ability to post photos to specific photo albums in Facebook.

          It's great I can attach random pictures, but we already have photo albums we want to add to. Right now I have to visit our pages in Facebook to add pictures to these albums.

          • facebook lists

            facebook users already create lists to keep them updated on profiles of their choosing. twitter lists like this are already integrated into hootsuite. I'm proposing the same for facebook. thanks for your consideration.

            • Add a native mac app that doesn't require fluid

              I'd rather use a native app on my mac than a mac created from the web app by fluid.

              • Build on the great new LinkedIn groups functionality by allowing posts to the group jobs tab

                As LinkedIn is heavily used by companies for recruitment it would make sense to add the ability to post jobs to the group jobs tab instead of only allowing posts to the discussions

                • Twitter Lists Management - add to lists not in a stream

                  Saw this previously posted and marked as complete but it is not resolved. When adding a profile to a Twitter list ALL lists should show up not just the lists that are in a Hootsuite stream on the dashboard. When I try to add a user to a list only those lists show that are in streams and all other lists are missing. This is a lame function that has been bugging me for a year. Please fix it it's a no brainer.

                  • Allow scheduling of RSS feed updates

                    Allow scheduling of RSS feed updates. For instance to look for an update at 9:30am, 12:30am, and 4:00pm. Market open, midday, and close. :)

                      While we don’t check RSS feeds for specific times, you can choose which time interval to check for new updates.

                      We may consider specific times in the future.

                      Keep in mind that current RSS technology does not allow for precise updates on the hour. However, doing a general check usually allows us to retrieve the latest post within minutes.

                    • Allow auto-schedule when bulk scheduling posts

                      I think the auto scheduler feature is great. Now I'd like this feature available in bulk scheduled items.

                      • Schedule Facebook post for scheduled, but yet unpublished blog post

                        It's great that we can schedule facebook posts with the image, but the blog post has to be live to do this. I would love the ability to enter my blog admin credentials so when I schedule a week's worth of blog posts to auto post in the future I can also pre-schedule the facbook posts before the blog post has gone live. We need a way for hootsuite to get into the blog and pull the info. Or whichever way is best; the bottom line is: it doesn't do any good to schedule a facebook post for a blog…

                            Hi everyone!
                            Currently all photos from other clients in Tweets will preview when you open the tweet, with the exception of Twitter native pictures. pic.twitter images will need to be opened in a new window. We’ll look at the possibility of supporting these in the future.
                            Thanks!

                          • beside "send now" please add "schedule" AND "autoschedule" ... I hate having to turn the autoschdule on and off for different posts.

                              • A color system to identify quickly those who follow me, those who do not follow me and the fans

                                I wonder who follows me on own timeline. I'm getting confused many twitter and would like to give unfollow in some, but I'm wondering if that person follows me. I want to clean my own twitter by HootSuite. The system could be color eg red color for who I follow and come after me. Green for my fans and yellow for who I follow, and she follows. I know it something. The colors help a lot. Thank you for your attention

                                  Have you used the People Browser in HootSuite? This easily displays all the info of who follows you and so on.

                                      This feature does depend on the API calls available with each social network profile. However, if it is available, we’ll considering adding such a stream to HootSuite.

                                    • More Tabs

                                      Due to our agency running managing multiple social media accounts, we are in need of more tabs! The limit of 20 is too low for an agency - especially as we are growing accounts!

                                        The current limit tabs is due to performance considerations for web browsers. However, as technology evolves, this may be something we reformat in the future.

                                      • unique subject line for notifications

                                        We assign escalations to a CS team who then receive an email notification, the current notifications don't have any unique reference in the email url which makes it a nightmare for logging responses our side and theirs. Could we please have the functionality to at least indicate which network the contact relates to (Facebook, Twitter) and the time/date of the contact? This would really help make this a practical application for our organisation to grow with and roll out to other businesses. Many thanks

                                          This is a tremendous idea. In fact, it is one we ourselves would love to use. We’re notifying our dev team for further review.

                                          Currently you can only upload a message to the title or the header of a discussion in LinkedIn groups, which is limited to 200 characters.
                                          It should be possible to add discussions in LinkedIn groups with specifically a title, body text and even link separated in the 'create new message' field.!
