General


Q: What is the Boxpressd Social Media Planner?


A: Our Social Media Planner allows you to automatically publish your posts created on Boxpressd for Business to external platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and more. This way, you can seamlessly integrate your Boxpressd posts with your social media presence.


Q: How much does this feature cost?


A: This advanced feature is available exclusively in our paid premium plans, starting at $18/month.


Platform Compatibility


Q: Which platforms can I publish my posts to?


A: Currently, you can publish your posts to Facebook pages and Instagram. For Instagram, you'll need either a Creator or Business account.


Q: Are there plans to support more platforms in the future?


A: We're always looking to expand our services. We are currently looking into LinkedIn and TikTok. Stay tuned for updates on new platform integrations!


Publishing Process


Q: How do I link my social media accounts to Boxpressd?


A: When creating a post, you'll find options to connect your Facebook and Instagram accounts. Follow the on-screen instructions to authenticate and grant the necessary permissions. Alternatively, visit https://business.boxpressd.com/profile/settings and link them from there.


Q: Can I schedule posts for a later date?


A: Yes! When creating a post, you'll find a scheduling option. Simply pick your desired date and time, and your post will be automatically published on your selected platforms at that time.


Q: What happens if I edit my post on Boxpressd after scheduling it?


A: If you make changes to a scheduled post on Boxpressd, you'll need to re-schedule the post for external platforms to ensure the changes are reflected.


Requirements & Limitations


Q: Why do I need an Instagram Creator or Business account?


A: Due to Instagram's API limitations and policies, only Creator and Business accounts can be used for third-party publishing tools like ours.


Q: Can I publish to my personal Facebook profile?


A: Currently, our tool only supports publishing to Facebook pages. Personal profiles and groups are not supported at this time (though we plan to support groups in the future!).


Q: Are there any post format restrictions when publishing to external platforms?


A: Different platforms have different format and content guidelines. Ensure your posts comply with each platform's guidelines. For instance, Instagram has specific aspect ratios for photos and videos.


Troubleshooting


Q: My post didn't publish to an external platform. What do I do?


A: Ensure your linked accounts are still active and authenticated. Sometimes, token expirations or account changes can affect publishing. The easiest fix is often to re-link the accounts from https://business.boxpressd.com/profile/settings. If issues persist, contact our support team.



Billing & Subscriptions


Q: If I upgrade to the premium plan, will all my previous posts be eligible for external publishing?


A: Yes! Once you upgrade, you can choose to publish any of your previous posts to the supported platforms.


Q: Can I try the publishing feature before subscribing to the premium plan?


A: Absolutely! We are currently offering free credits to all business subscribers for a limited time. While our business features are in the beta testing phase, you can sign up and enjoy the services without any charge. So, you get to try before you officially pay.
