By default, AutoGP leaves 24 hours between your posts to the same group, because many groups allow one post a day and the same post twice in one group looks like spam to Facebook and to its members.
What you see before a run
If some of the groups you picked got a post from you within that time, the Ready to post screen shows a Posted recently line, such as "3 of 20 got a post in the last 24 hours". You can:
- Skip them (the default): those groups are left out of this run and show as skipped in Results.
- Include them anyway: they get another post now.
If every group you picked got a post recently, AutoGP waits for you to include them or cancel.
A scheduled post checks the spacing when it starts. If every group in it is too recent, the Schedule tab says it did not run for that reason.
Changing the spacing
Open Settings, then Speed and safety, and change Space posts to the same group: Off, 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours (recommended), 2 days, 3 days or 7 days.
The spacing works while Account protection is on in the same section.
Groups you run yourself
You can post more often in a group you manage, and its rules are yours to set. Facebook still sees the same post again and again in one group as spam, though, and your members see it too. Posting something new each time, or leaving a few hours between posts, keeps the group lively and your account safer.
When to contact support
Email support@autogp.ai if groups are skipped as posted recently when they haven't had a post from you in that time. Include the group's link and when you last posted there.
