Instagram Planner hashtags are primarily meant for Instagram planning. You will be able to view these in a Multi-Channel Workspace, but not edit.

    • Create, Edit, and View your Instagram Planner Hashtags in Instagram Planner
    • View your IG Planner Hashtags and insert them into posts in your Multi-Channel Planner

    If copying your hashtag group, once you click on Copy, you will see a notification at the bottom of your screen saying Hashtags copied to clipboard, and from there, you can paste those anywhere you need to.

    When adding hashtags and mentions to a hashtag group, you will see the counter at the bottom of the hashtag group letting you know how many of each you have left. If you are over the allotted limit, you will not be able to auto-post your content via Planoly.

    Please Note: When creating hashtag groups within the Multi-Channel Workspace, these hashtags can be copied and pasted to either planner (Instagram Planner OR Multi-Channel Workspace planner). On the other hand, when creating hashtag groups for the Instagram Planner, these must be done inside of the Instagram Planner. 

    You will see icons for the Multi-Channel Workspace and Instagram (shown below) to identify where the hashtags were created. You can learn more about how to create hashtags in the Instagram Planner below.
