How do I let users publish Instagram and Facebook Stories?

Choose per social network whether users publish to the Feed, to Stories, or to both.

Written by Justin Verhoeve

With the Socials module, users can share a product's file to Facebook and Instagram. For each network, you choose where the post appears: in the Feed, in Stories, or in both.

Set the placement

  1. Open the product in Marketing Shop › Products.

  2. Select Socials in the Modules list.

  3. Under Facebook or Instagram, make sure Post to Facebook or Post to Instagram is turned on.

  4. Under Placement, select Story, Feed or both. You must select at least one.

  5. Select Save.

You set the placement separately for Facebook and for Instagram. For example, you can post to the Instagram Story and the Facebook feed for the same product.

Story or Feed: what is the difference?

  • Story: the post contains a single media item and no caption.

  • Feed: the post includes a caption. You can fill in a Default caption and choose with User can edit caption whether users can change it.
    ​

Note: Stories are a Facebook and Instagram feature. LinkedIn posts always go to the feed. Facebook and Instagram remove a Story from view after 24 hours.
