Autopost settings

Choose what to post about, how often, where, and whether to ask you first

Autopost is one page of plain choices: what to post about, how often, where, whether to ask you first, and how images look. Beside them, Next posts shows the next four posts as your current choices would make them, and updates as you change the form, before you save.

The choices

Autopost is on - The main switch. When it is off, nothing new is proposed. Posts already scheduled still go out.
What should we post about? - New arrivals, Bestsellers, Back in stock, On sale, Collections and Blog articles. Tick as many as you like. Blog articles need the Pro plan or higher. See How the store review works.
How often? - Posts per week (once a week, or 2, 3, 5, 7 or 14 times a week; Free goes up to 3, Pro up to 7, and Max and Ultra up to 14, which is twice a day) and Time of day. Posts are spread across the week instead of bunched together, at that time in your store's time zone. With 14 a week, the second post of the day goes out six hours after the first.
Where? - The connected channels Autopost uses. Every proposal goes to each ticked channel with its own caption and crop. Until you save a choice here, every connected channel is used; after that, tick a newly connected channel yourself. Below the list you see how many channels your plan posts to.
Ask me first, or post automatically? - Ask me first puts every post in the Queue to wait for your approval. Post automatically (Pro and up) schedules posts at their time without waiting. You can still edit, pause or cancel them in Posts before they go out.
How should images look? - Photo is your product photo cropped for each network. Branded (Pro and up) adds a band in your Brand colour with the label, the name and the price. See Images and links for each network.

Click Save to apply your choices. Turning Autopost on writes the first proposals within a few minutes.

The preview lists the next four posting times with the item each would feature, its reason and its photo. A time that already has a post shows Waiting for approval or Scheduled. Open slot means nothing fits your choices yet. The preview is free and writes nothing.

Click Propose posts now to review the store and write the coming week's proposals straight away instead of waiting for the next morning. They appear in the Queue in a minute or two.
