How many social media accounts can I connect?
We allow adding multiple social accounts, the number of social media accounts you can connect depends on the RecurPost plan you opt for. Check out our Plans page to see how many accounts you can connect with different plans.
Note: A Facebook Page, Group and Profile each will be considered as a separate account. For instance, if your account has one Facebook Profile, one Twitter Profile, one LinkedIn Profile and one Facebook Group then it would count as 4 total accounts.
Can I upload videos and post them to social accounts with the paid plans?
Yes, you can upload and post videos by following our video sharing guidelines here from RecurPost. Videos posted using RecurPost appear on social platforms as if they were shared natively. This is different from just sharing links of YouTube videos as they will play right on the platform itself. This feature is available exclusively with our paid plans.
Do you support Pinterest?
Yes, we do support Pinterest.
I have added my Facebook Profile, how do I add another profile?
We have made it pretty simple. All you need to do is log out from your current Facebook account and login to the one you want to add. Then click on the “ADD” button on the Dashboard page and you will be able to add the other Facebook Profile.
I denied RecurPost permission to post on my Facebook account. How do I change that?
You can visit the Business Integrations page on FB after logging into your FB Profile. You will see RecurPost listed there on that page. Click on ‘Remove’ and then go to RecurPost. Try adding your account again and it will work just fine. Please note that if you have other FB accounts in RecurPost then you will need to reconnect them as well.
Why are my Facebook pages not there on the list when I try to add them?
If you are not seeing some or all of your Facebook pages in the list there could be a few reasons. Let us look at them and see how to get all your pages to appear on RecurPost
RecurPost only allows admins of Facebook Page to share post on the page from its platform. If you are not one of the admins, you cannot even add that page to RecurPost.
We have also seen this happening when you manage multiple Facebook accounts and you are logged into a different account. If you do manage multiple accounts, please make sure that you are logged into the correct one.
When adding your Facebook pages to RecurPost for the first time, you will see the following pop-up
If you click on the ‘Edit settings’ option, you will get a pop-up where you select the pages that you want to link with RecurPost. If you don’t click on ‘Edit Settings’ and click on ‘Continue as FB Profile’ then, we will get the necessary access to all of your pages and they will appear fine on RecurPost.
However, if you click on ‘Edit Settings’ option then, please make sure that you select ALL the pages you want to link with RecurPost. If you leave some pages, they will not appear on RecurPost ever.
This pop up is only displayed the first time you connect your Facebook Pages with RecurPost. If you don’t give us permission for certain pages, you will not be able to add them from RecurPost. However, there is a way to change that.
You can control your permissions from your Facebook account settings. Please go to this link then, click on View and edit on the ‘RecurPost’ app. You will see that some of the pages have been granted permissions and some are not. Check the boxes next to the pages that you want to add to RecurPost and Save it.
Why am I not getting Instagram notifications?
If you have logged out from our mobile app, you will not get any push notifications. If you are logged in and still do not get notifications you need to check if you have allowed RecurPost to send notifications on your phone settings.
If you are an iPhone user, go to ‘Settings’ app > scroll down and find RecurPost > Once you see RecurPost app tap on it. Then tab on the Notifications option on that screen. You will see the screen as shown below. You can then turn on the option to allow notifications from RecurPost.
Android users can get the notifications by going to the Apps section in Settings, selecting the RecurPost app and turning the notifications option on. Here is a screenshot to show you what that screen looks like.
Even after this if you encounter an issue, please feel free to contact us.
Does Instagram work with direct posting?
Yes, directly posting works just fine with Instagram Business Account.
Instagram posting with Personal or Creator account is slightly different. To post on Instagram Personal Profile or Creator Profile, you can follow the steps from here.
When I try to add my Instagram account, RecurPost says I need to download the Instagram app. Why is this needed?
For posting your post on Instagram Personal Profile or Creator Profile, you will need both RecurPost and Instagram mobile apps. You can use our website, Chrome plugin or our mobile apps to schedule posts on Instagram. When the time comes to share your post, you will receive a push notification from RecurPost that you need to click/tap on to post on Instagram. We have a blog that explains this process in detail here.
I scheduled something for Instagram and it appears in my History, but not on my Instagram. I do have the RecurPost app so what is the issue here?
You might not have checked the box in Settings on your phone giving RecurPost permission to send push notifications for publishing on Instagram. You can do this on the Settings page of your phone (see our answer to Why am I not getting Instagram notifications?).
Once done, you will get all the notifications from RecurPost.
Once you get the notifications, you can then share your posts just fine. Here is a blog that explains the process to post on Instagram in detail.
I’m not able to add my Instagram account from online or your app because I get the error code “You don’t have the app yet”.
We would request you to uninstall the app and install the latest version of the RecurPost app. This is because older versions of the app were not compatible with Instagram. If this still doesn’t work, please feel free to contact us.
