With automatic blog publishing, you can automatically publish social posts when new blog articles are published. These social posts are published 15 minutes after your new blog post is published.
🌱 Blog auto-publish limitations
- Blog auto-publishing can only be turned on for shared social accounts.
- Once turned on, blog auto-publishing cannot be turned off if a social account is no longer set to shared.
- Unpublishing and republishing a blog post will not re-publish social posts to your social accounts.
- Due to Instagram limitations, blog auto-publishing is not available for Instagram accounts.
- Due to Facebook's content policies, social sharing features, including blog auto-publish, cannot be turned on for personal Facebook accounts.
- You can only turn on blog auto-publishing for one Twitter account per blog. For example, if you have two Twitter accounts connected in your HubSpot account, you cannot set them both up to auto-publish for the same blog.
- To turn on blog auto-publish for a Twitter account, you need to select Report on posts published from all sources when connecting the account to HubSpot.
