[Feature Suggestion]RT Only Non-Replies or RT Exclusion Function

[bmanfacts]

Hello,

My feature suggestion is based on the RT function. Specifically for RTs based on a profile vs specific tweet.

Retweet Non-Replies From a user.

Could be in the form of "Exclude Replies"

Or Exclude Keywords

"Exclude When [Keywords] are used" for exa

Both would be preferrable as options on the [Mass] RT Function. I'll do with either if possible.

I suggest this because I have accounts I may want to reply to users but don't want the software to pick it up to RT if it's my latest tweet on the account.

For the sake of it, if a parallel function can be implemented for the [Mass] Like function, that would be great. I think it's less essential, but welcomed.

Let me know if this is possible.

Thanks!

you mean you want to only process ORIGINAL posts?

If so, use the filter option that does exactly that

no filter on mass retweet

[martin@rootjazz]

because MASS RETWEET expects you to provide the exact tweet you want to retweet, and doesn't expect you to provide a tweet URL you want to filter.

If you are wanting filter options MASS ACTIONS are not for you, use the SEARCH RETWEET tab

If so, use the filter option that does exactly that

Specifically, ORIGINAL posts that are also NON-REPLIES.

So if the scraped original tweet is a reply to another tweet, DON'T RETWEET.

I ask if this is doable when the RT function (specifically Mass RT) runs on a PROFILE URL.

EDIT: IF this is doable, the second layer I'd request is to specify which replies to EXCLUDE ie: Only RT Replies to @xxx, Exclude Replies to more than 1 person etc. I imagine this one is more advanced for the process to run, like it does well for filters. I'd be fine if it were simplified IF dobale.

That is what the filter option ORIGINAL TWEET ONLY does

Not possible, you would need to use SEARCH RETWEET tab

Honestly, probably too specific that no one else is going to use it and is basically a personal feature for just you. But as always: your suggestion has been noted and added to the feature suggestions list. Depending on the demand for the change / feature will alter how quickly it gets implemented.

So I understand you correctly, to do what I'm asking for (in emulating the mass RT function I requested in the OP), I would need to:

1) Go to the SEARCH RETWEET Tab
2) Enter CUSTOM SEARCH (For example, "LastestTweetsOf")
3) Enter TWEET FILTER & Select ORIGINAL TWEETS ONLY
3) Check "Unretweet > Retweet if retweeted"

Then to simulate this in LIkes, check the LIKE function in the SEARCH RETWEET Tab?

Wait a minute, let me check something. REPLIES shouldn't appear in a user feed. When you check the profile, you can check the tabs
TWEETS
TWEETS WITH REPLIES

The program should be check TWEETS which would be original + retweets, not replies.
