Hi folks!
The Campaign Planning team here at Constant Contact has been working on some updates to the Scheduling flow that I wanted to share with y'all. As of Friday morning, you should see some new features and fixes!
We figured out the issue with Filter by tag not appearing for some customers. A fix is live for everyone -- you should see it appear in Scheduling as long as you have less than 10,000 active contacts (we're ignoring unsubscribed ones now)!
We've added support for Favorited lists to Scheduling! If you've starred any lists in the Contacts area, they'll show up at the top of the list picker in Scheduling.
The Scheduler's list picker won't close when you select a list if you're using type-ahead search; it'll stay open so you can select multiple lists.
The default Week Start Day in the Scheduling Calendar and date picker is now determined based on your locale. If we can't get this for some reason, we'll default to starting the week on Sunday.
We've made Scheduling times a bit more granular! You can now schedule in 15 minute intervals (down from 30 minutes).
When Test Sending an email, we'll pre-populate the recipients with the email addresses you used the last time you test-sent.
We're lining up some additional changes to simplify Scheduling as we head into 2026; I'll share them here once we're a bit further along! Thanks for all of your feedback; we appreciate you taking the time to tell us what's working and what isn't!
