How to Auto-Post First Comments from PLANOLY to Instagram
- Go to your PLANOLY mobile app or web dashboard.
- When scheduling content to post, you can access the First Comment feature by clicking on the speech bubble icon (located in the schedule action bar).
- You’ll see a text box slide in, where you can add your comment (up to 2,000 characters, 10 mentions, and 30 hashtags). Note: You can select your previously saved hashtag groups here.
- Add your comment and click ‘Save.’ Your hashtags or mentions will automatically be posted into the first comment of your Instagram post.
*PLANOLY Tip: You can also copy the first comment from the History View (mobile app only). When you move the item from History to Grid, the first comment will be copied over!
