Make your first posts with bundle.social
Quick note
🥺 YOU CAN POST DIFFERENT CONTENT TO ALL THE PLATFORMS ALL AT ONCE 🥴
Your first post
In this tutorial, you will learn how to use bundle.social, get your accounts and media ready.
On the sidebar, click Posts.
Now you can see your Posts dashboard, there is nothing here for now.
Click the + icon to open post creator.
The first page of the post creator is strictly internal. Here, you can pick what account you’re going to post on, what content you’re going to post, and at what time.
You can change these things later, so if your creative juices are not flowing from the get-go, don’t worry.
Picking the platform
At the top of the screen, you can see all your connected accounts for the team that you are currently on. Pick which account you want to post on by clicking on the appropriate tile.
We will be posting on all 4 connected platforms:
- YouTube and Instagram for video,
- LinkedIn for some company updates,
- Discord to engage with the community.
(Sounds so real, we know.)
Pick the content for the post
We understand that you might be on the go or just be clumsy and not have the right content with you at all times. That’s why we have the media library (you can learn more about it here). For now, all you need to know is that this is internal storage.
Click select media.
Here you can see all of your media. You can pick from it or upload a new one. We will add one photo, and the rest will be from the media library.
Set the time
Let’s say that your boss told you that you need to post every 3 hours. Instead of sitting down every 3 hours, you can just pick a time and forget about it.
If you don’t set a time or the time is earlier than the current time, the post will be added as soon as processing is finished.
Customize your content
In the bottom right corner, click Customize.
Your screen should look like this:
Great, let’s start from the top:
- Title: Internal only
- Date: When to post it
Now, you can see platform icons, those are tabs. Click around, and you can see that some things are changing, like on YouTube you have a Text field and a Description field, but on Instagram there is only Text.
Adjust the content
In the tabs previously mentioned, you have your content field. When you hover over content, you can delete it, for example, on the YouTube tab, we are leaving only the video that we want to post.
Multiple pieces of content
If you want to post multiple images, for example, on Instagram, just leave the content untouched. We support multi-content on all platforms that already have it.
Great, now we can click on the Instagram tab and remove all the unwanted content for that platform.
Let’s do that for the rest of the platforms.
Discord and Slack quirk
To learn in depth about the bots click here but for now, if you post to Discord and Slack without changing the sender of your messege will appear like that
Thats okay if you don’t care but if you care click + icon to create new bot.
You will be displayed a popup, upload bot cover photo and give him a name. The name
will be displayed in Discord/Slack as sender so watch out.
Now click Create
Great, you created the BOT and you will be able to use it next time but don’t forget to pick newly created BOT from the select input.
Now your Discord sender will look like this.
Post it
After we added all the captions and images, it’s time to post it.
Click Publish.
The page will refresh, and you will see the Post Dashboard again, but this time you will see your post.
If there is a lot of content like multiple big videos, the post will have a status of processing or scheduled, but do not worry, other images will be posted.
Access the content
Click the post instance. Here you will see a list of links to each post.
Here you can see our LinkedIn post.
Deleting a post
For security reasons, you cannot delete a post via our app, you can only remove the post instance from bundle.social.
If you want to remove the posts via bundle.social, shoot us an email. If there are enough requests, we will enable that option ~ 50/50.
