#1. Please add a TIME to specify when you want to post.
*
this is the most urgent portion of my post.
This is a rough draft obviously. But it's a simple addition for the instagram posting portion it could change how this bot completely works for a lot of users. They don't realize it yet.
If you're in a niche that requires specific posts at specific times you're bot becomes highly un-targetted and leaves you less control in what your account can do.. I need specific images to post at specific times. Not in order, not random, but specific times. I'll give you an example.
There is a television series that I know ends at 8:00, people are highly engaged immediately following the shows television episode. I need my content to be posted with specific images at specific times. MM/DD/YR 8:01 PM, MM/DD/YR 8:05 PM, MM/DD/YR 8:10 PM, MM/DD/YR 8:15 PM, MM/DD/YR 8:30 PM. Not every day, just specific days at specific times. Your system is setup to generalize the tasks at hand. You can post random pictures, or pictures in ORDER, but you can't setup specific post times for future posts with specific pictures.
If the box is
not checked and you add the post in, it will go with your
GENERAL SHARE/POST SETTINGS.
If the box
is checked, and add a specific date and time, it will follow THAT rule.
The bot should run its other/normal settings like being able to post random content(that did not have the date/time specific check-box). As well as post my specific content/ad/etc if it was checked and included the date/time.
The time specific photos should not follow the "posts per day" rule, that should stay as the general posts. If followliker has already shared the maximum photos you set in your
GENERAL/SHARE/POST settings, a time specific post should not be blocked. The post should override the "already shared max photos" stoppage.
On the opposite end: When the time specific post is done, it should not count it towards the "max shares" per day. This allows you to still post your normal content.
This allows me to setup my general posts, and my promotional posts differently. This is what your main competition does and would not only make you the clear front runner but also boost your sales. This is what I have done with all my custom software. I'll personally re-purchase the software from you again to support you when you add this. I bought this only for the posting and only use it for general posting now. I do most of the following with custom software. I use mass planner for specific time posts.
Programming wise: I think you could put a simple 10 second timer, have it run through all the active accounts. It does a simple routine to check the account for anything queued up for the future. If its a match: (1) Notifies the activity log. (2) Activates the action (which would be a new post to instagram in this case.)
Tried to explain this the best I could. Hope others see this as a useful feature.
#2. *Minor but it would make it easier to see what the bot is going to do.
In the activity logger. This is the current feed.
Next scheduled automation will run in approximately 9 minute(s) 50 second(s) [account.name]
Please update this so we know what the next task will be.
Next scheduled automated task (General Share Photo) will run in approximately 9 minute(s) 50 second(s) [account.name]
Next scheduled automated task (Follow) will run in approximately 3 minute(s) 12 second(s) [account.name]
Pending time specific automated tasks: 8 [account.name]
This gives you a heads up on whats going to happen next.
