With RecurPost, you can schedule posts on Facebook pages, profiles, and groups. Sharing images, videos, links, and text posts on Facebook through RecurPost is simple and efficient.
How to share a post on Facebook?
1. Connect your Facebook Account
To connect your Facebook account, go to the Social Profiles section from the sidebar menu and click on the Facebook logo. Under the Facebook logo, you’ll see the Page option.
If you want to connect your Facebook Profile or Group, enable the “Show accounts that support posting only via push notifications toggle“. This will allow you to manage Facebook Pages, Profiles and Groups within your account.
You will be redirected to Facebook’s login page if you are not already logged in. Provide RecurPost with the required permissions to schedule posts on your account. No personal data or credentials will be saved.
Posting on Facebook Profile & Group is not a completely automated posting as it works via push notification due to restrictions from Facebook’s end. To learn more, please check out our help article here.
2. Create a One-off Post
One-off posts are helpful when you want to schedule a single post on multiple accounts. These posts will be shared on your accounts just once. To create a One-off post, click anywhere inside the ‘Share a Post’ dialogue box on the ‘Calendar‘.
A pop-up window will appear where you shall be able to add your content. Add description/caption, attach images/video or import media directly from Canva, add hashtags, include emojis, insert a link (a preview will be automatically fetched) and select the Facebook account that you want to post on.
Once ready, either post immediately or schedule it for a specific date and time.
3. Add Content to Libraries
You can fill up your libraries with awesome content and set a recurring schedule to make all that content go out in a loop on your Facebook accounts. You shall find all your content libraries on the ‘Library’ page.
When you sign up, some libraries will be created by default for you. You can edit or delete them, or create as many new libraries as you want. In these libraries, you will find a lot of options to add recurring posts.
You can add a single post, add images/videos/text/link posts in bulk, add content through a CSV file, import content from a social account, or set up an RSS feed. Read more…
4. Create Recurring Schedules (Time Slots)
After adding content to your libraries, you need to set a recurring schedule to let the posts go out on your social accounts. To set a recurring schedule, go to the library and navigate to the ‘TIME SLOTS’ tab. Then click on ‘ADD RECURRING TIME SLOTS’ button.
Here, you can select the frequency at which you want your posts to go out. Choose an option between Daily/Weekly, Monthly or Custom, set the time, and click on the ‘ADD TIME SLOT’ button.
That’s it. All the posts in your libraries will be posted according to the set schedule(s).
Now let’s see how your Facebook posts will appear once posted through RecurPost.
How will Text posts appear on Facebook?
If you are only posting text, it will appear the same on Facebook the way you have typed it on RecurPost.
This is how you will compose a one-off post.
How will Image and Video posts appear on Facebook?
Here, you can upload Images and Videos. You can also add a ‘First Comment’ to this post. If you are sharing a video then, you can also select where you want to post ‘Feed’ or ‘Reel’.
Here is how those posts shall look like:
How will Link post appear on Facebook?
When you paste a link into the message box, RecurPost will automatically retrieve a title, image and description from that link. Please note that when posting Link the preview is completely controlled by Facebook at the time of posting and RecurPost does not have control of the post in case of Link only.
This is how your post would appear on Facebook.
