Automatically created posts

In this post we'll cover how you can review automatically generated posts and explain how the business profile and brand kit settings influence automatically generated posts.

Automatically created posts

Automatically created posts will have a distinct card thumbnail on your calendar. On the image below you'll see that all automatically generated posts have a 'Review' button on them. This happens because Socialbud generates 3 post variants automatically, but you'll need to pick one of the variants and schedule them manually.

Platforms & schedule

When you open Socialbud for the first time, you'll be greeted with a calendar view displaying the auto-generated posts. If you click on one of the posts, an alert message will appear, notifying you that you need to connect the post to your social media accounts before proceeding.

If you cancel the scheduling of a post, it will still appear in the calendar with a yellow alert, indicating that the post is not scheduled.

Under the Platforms & schedule tab, you can view and manage the settings for your connected social media platforms. You can also adjust the scheduling preferences for each platform individually.

If you don't connect your accounts to SocialBud before the scheduled posting time, the post will fail and won't be published on your social media platforms.

The number of auto-generated posts depends on your subscription plan. With the smaller package, we generate 2 posts per week, while the larger package includes 4 posts per week. If you'd like to make changes, you can do so under Subscription > Socialbud plans.

You can find the different subscription plans here:

     How to edit post

   • Download the visuals

   • Read the caption

   • Save the post to your saved posts

   

   Saving posts is important because once you schedule one, the other two will be removed. To keep them for future use, click the Save icon (see below in a red circle).

   
   You can access saved posts later under Menu > Saved posts. Find more information about the topic here:

   Each post is slightly tailored to fit the specific social media platform selected.

   If you're not satisfied, you can delete posts individually or reject all at once.

Business profile and Brand kit

The visuals and content of the "Auto-Generated Posts" are based on your selections during the onboarding process. If you'd like to make changes, you can easily do so.

• To adjust visuals: Go to Settings > Brand kit, where you can update colors, typography, and style to better reflect your brand. A quick note: For your additional colors, Social Bud automatically selects the most suitable options that complement your brand colors and ensure accessibility compliance, avoiding any visibility issues.

  

• To modify content: Update your business information under Settings > Business profile. Be as detailed as possible, as this helps us create more relevant posts for your audience and ensures a smoother, more seamless experience for you.
