      Reviewing and Editing Instagram/Facebook Posts

      1. To edit your Instagram and Facebook posts, go to the corresponding tab under the "Marketing" cluster on the left side of the screen.


      Here, you can preview, edit and approve all posts that are generated throughout the platform and added to your Instagram/Facebook tabs.


      2. To edit any post, you will need to click the edit pencil next to the section you need to edit.

      That includes:

      1. Editing the date/time

      2. Editing the description:

      3. Updating the photo

      If you don't like a caption, click the "Magic Rewrite" button at the bottom of the post and your restaurant-specific AI will create a new caption that fits that specific post based on the text that was previously there!

        The AI captions will be generated on the side of the post, and you will be given a few options to choose from, which you can also edit further.

         

        Note: Posts about specials can be rescheduled only for different times within the same day. This way, you are not posting wrong daily offers.

         

        Approving Facebook/Instagram Posts

        1. Go to the "Instagram Posts" or "Facebook Posts: page under your "Marketing" cluster.
        2. Check if you have clicked the option marked "Approve Each Post First" at the top of the page. If you have, that means posts will not go out without your permission. If you have "Posting On AutoPilot" on, then every post you generate in SpotHopper will go out automatically.
