Use this interactive demo to learn how to reorder streams inside your Hootsuite dashboard.

Quick summary

Rearranging streams in Hootsuite lets you customize your Stream panel layout by dragging columns to your preferred order. This helps social media managers organize their monitoring dashboard for faster, more efficient workflows.

Steps

Inside Hootsuite's Stream panel, go to the left-side corner and select the board that contains the streams you wish to rearrange.
Find and grab the stream you want to move, then drag it to your desired position — either to the left or to the right side.
Once you release the stream in its new position, your Hootsuite streams will be rearranged accordingly.

📌 Why this matters

Being able to rearrange streams in Hootsuite gives social media managers full control over their monitoring dashboard layout, ensuring the most important content feeds are always front and center. Customizing stream order reduces time spent scanning across columns, improving response times and overall workflow efficiency. For teams managing multiple social accounts and keyword streams, a well-organized Stream panel directly supports faster engagement and smarter content oversight.
