Close post console window after editing a future post.
Once a post that has been scheduled is edited, a blank "make post" box is left on screen. I never want to make a post directly after editing a post. It should go straight back to the calendar screen
2 votesAfter editing a post, the post console will now close.

A preview of each post on the calendar
Add a one-line preview of each post to the calendar. Not just sorted by color and timing / it makes it hard to schedule in advance not seeing the content.
1 voteThe new calendar now includes a short preview of each post using the extended view.

allow emoji
When composing or replying to messages, it would be extremely nice to be able to insert emoji in Oktopost rather than having to go to a 3rd party tool (I'm using Buffer) to insert emoji and then copy/paste back into Oktopost.
3 votesAs part of our Post Console update, there is now an Emoji picker
-

Show a true preview of what the post will look like on a social network.
Show a true preview of what the post will look like on a social network. With image sizes and formats always changing on social networks, it would be nice to have a "true" preview of what each post will look like before it is published.
7 votesThrough the Post Console, if you view your post in its Full-Screen mode, your post preview should be a much better indicator of how its final appearance will be, with options to see it in desktop and mobile view.
-
Uploading Videos to LinkedIn
Have an option to upload videos to LinkedIn.
7 votesYou can upload videos to LinkedIn Company or Showcase Pages.
In addition, posting a Youtube link from Oktopost will embed the video from Youtube on LinkedIn’s side. This works for Personal LinkedIn Profiles as well.

Send email notification when a post doesn't go through for any particular reason (specifically an error)
When scheduled posts do not get posted, we have no way to be notified. Finding out the next day is often too late. It would be great to get email notification that a post did not go through and why.

Our new Post Console can be moved around the screen by clicking and dragging the top of it. It can also be minimized to the bottom of the screen allowing you to navigate anywhere in Oktopost and bring it back up.

Pop up alert when no campaign is assigned
When posting a new message from the general calendar, would love for a pop up alert notifying you that no campaign was assigned, instead of automatically assigning it to a general campaign
11 votesIf a Campaign is not selected when scheduling a post, a prompt will now come up reminding you.
Otherwise, the Campaign will now be set as your last-used Campaign by default rather than creating a new General Campaign.
-
Preview capability
Ability to see a preview of what your post will look like
5 votesThrough the newly updated Post Console, if you view your post in its Full-Screen mode, you will see how your post should appear with options to see it in desktop and mobile view.

Allow to edit queues
Instead of having to delete and recreate new Queues, it would be great if you could edit existing ones.
14 votesYou can edit existing queues by going to the Social Profiles screen and clicking the Edit Queue Settings icon to the right of the Profile you would like to edit the queue for.
-
Create and save drafts
Would like to save drafts without scheduling right away. Currently the only way I'm seeing to do this is to create a message in Message Assets of a campaign, but majority of my posts are not in assigned to a campaign—so I'm unable to save drafts at all. Please enable this.
16 votesYou can save Posts or Messages as a Draft by clicking the arrow next to “Share Now” or “Schedule” and selecting “Save as Draft”. If a Post is saved as a Draft, it will appear on the Calendar with the top-right corner bent inwards so it is easily seen.
-
Character Count
Please add a character counter for Twitter and Facebook posts. For Twitter posts, the character count only starts after you've hit 112 characters.
12 votesBoth Twitter and Facebook have character counters now.
Twitter’s will appear as a circle that fills up and will display numbers as you get close to the character limit.
Because Facebook currently allows up to 63,206 characters and in most cases will not be exceeded, the circle will remain hidden from view until you either get close or go over the limit, at which point it will also show the number of available characters left/characters over the limit.
-
Archiving campaigns easily
A tick box beside each campaign to archive them (you have this in archive to revert back) It's a bit clunky having to go in to each campaign to archive when you have several to do.
4 votesThis is currently available in the campaigns section of Oktopost.

"Gray out" platforms that we don't have profiles set up for.
There are currently four choices of platforms to create messages assets - Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter and G+. If I have profiles set up but there are no profiles for a particular service, it would be great to have a way for the services without profiles to be "grayed out" or some notification that prevents me from starting to write a message asset in the wrong tab / service that requires me to either delete or cut & paste when I've made an error.
3 votesIf there is not a Social Profile connected to Oktopost for a certain Social Network, that Social Network will no longer appear in the Post Console.
