Scheduling tweets with added time to post

[MattGreene]

So if I want to upload a file of let's say 50 tweets and schedule them, I just upload a .txt file with the file names, captions, tags and photoshoot ID, each in a separate tab. All of these fields get populated when I upload the file.

However, there doesn't seem to be an option, where I can also include the time for the posts to go live? Is there a specific way to format the date and time, or this functionality doesn't exist yet and posts need to be scheduled manually through the software? For each tweet I want to include a random time between HH:MM and HH:MM, which I can do on Excel through a formula, but then I want to convert all of this into a .txt file and just upload it to TwitterDub instead of manually inputting the date and time.

Any help?

I'll have a to check, I may have forgotten to add it for Import from file option...
If I have I will get it into the next update for you and let you know

Thanks, Martin! Much appreciated.

No Schedule date is not supported via file import method.

But if you just want to set a Random date, you can do this from the right click menu

Select the Tweets > right click > schedule range>


This can be used with TD scheduler (actions are scheduled in the processor)

Or with Twitter scheduling mode (tweets posted to twitter and twitter will turn live at the scheduled date)

The next update will fix this. I shall let you know when it is ready.

Thanks for the update Martin. However, the schedule feature doesn't seem to work every time for some reason.

Somehow I managed to upload a file once and it worked (I don't know what I did right), but on every other occasion, the Schedule field is just not populated. Even with the example you have provided above the "Import File" button, if you download it and upload it again, you will see that the Schedule field is empty. Am I doing something wrong or there's some kind of a glitch?
