AutoGP

Sharing a Page post, links and posting as a Page

AutoGP posts a new post to each group rather than using Facebook’s Share button. How to post as your Page, where to put a link, and what to post instead.

Sharing an existing post

AutoGP doesn't use Facebook's Share button, so it can't share a post that is already on your Page or profile. It writes a new post in each group, from the text, images or video you give it.

To get the same message out:

  1. Copy the text of your Page post into AutoGP's Post tab.
  2. Add the same images or video.
  3. If you want people to see the original, add its link (see below).

Posting as your Page

AutoGP posts as whichever profile or Page is active on facebook.com. To post as your Page:

  1. On facebook.com, switch to your Page.
  2. In AutoGP, press Refresh from Facebook under Posting as. It should now say Facebook Page.
  3. Sync your groups again, so AutoGP lists the groups your Page can post in.

Some groups don't let Pages post, so your Page may reach fewer groups than your profile. Pro posts as your profile plus one Page; Business and Agency post as more profiles or Pages.

Links

You can put a link in your post's text. Many groups hold posts with links for an admin, so AutoGP offers to move the link to the first comment under your post, where it doesn't hold the post up. Use the full link: short links (from link shorteners) hide where they lead, and Facebook often treats them as spam.

When to contact support

Email support@autogp.ai if AutoGP still shows your profile under Posting as after you've switched to your Page and refreshed.

More about how autogp works

Your first post with AutoGP

How to use AutoGP from sign-up to your first run: add it to Chrome, sync your Facebook groups, write and preview the post, start posting and read the results.

"Submitted for admin approval": your post is waiting for an admin

"Submitted for admin approval": many Facebook groups hold new posts until an admin approves them. Why that isn't a failure, and why reposting won't speed it up.

The AutoGP panel, screen by screen

Every screen of the AutoGP panel in Chrome: the post, the Ready to post check, Results and skip reasons, Sync Groups, the rest after a warning, Settings.

How AutoGP protects your account

How AutoGP keeps posting within what your Facebook account can carry: a daily limit that warms up, paced posts, varied wording, and stopping on warnings.

Keeping scheduled posts running

AutoGP posts from your own computer, so a scheduled post needs it on, awake and running Chrome at that time. How to set a computer up so posts go out.

Facebook is reviewing this listing

Facebook sometimes reviews a new listing before it shows in your groups. Why that isn't a failure, how it differs from admin approval, and what AutoGP counts.

What "posts a month" means on your plan

Each group your post or listing reaches counts as one post. What counts, what doesn't, when the month starts again, and what happens at the limit.

The internet dropped during a run

What AutoGP does when the Wi-Fi drops in the middle of a run, what Results shows, and how to post to the groups it missed once you are back online.

Posting to the same group again

AutoGP leaves 24 hours between posts to the same group by default. How to change the spacing, post again anyway, and why many groups allow one post a day.
