I'm in the process of migrating my blog from WordPress to HubSpot for various reasons, and I'm seeing an urgent need for improvement in the administrative functionality of the HubSpot blog. Some comments: The Blog Post view should allow ALL fields to potentially be added from your blog post template. However, I discovered something as important as the Meta Description field (a required field I might add) can't be added as a column. (I tried via Actions > Edit Columns... but it's not an option). When managing hundreds or even thousands of blogs, it's essential to be able to view, sort and filter all blog fields in one window, so you can ensure no vital information is missing. HubSpot blog product owners, I recommend you take a look at the Admin Columns Pro plugin for WordPress and try to replicate that in HubSpot. It offers powerful column management capability. You can set it up to display thumbnail images of your blog hero images. You can add custom columns, e.g., if you want to add production notes to specific blogs. And you can even perform inline editing and make corrections on the fly! You can also export the complete blog database to a spreadsheet for further review.
