    I originally posted this issue on the Support > Fixing WordPress forum. It was suggested that I post this topic on this forum. I am still a newbie with wordpress so I’m not all that familiar with all the features and plugins that can be utilized. I installed the NextScripts SNAP plugin and followed all of the instructions to configure it with my facebook and twitter. It should allow newly published blog posts to be automatically posted to my facebook and twitter. However, it is not doing this. I attached a screenshot of the log history I posted in my original post about this issue. For some reason it repeatedly just excludes new posts, and fails to successfully autopost anything.

    You set plugin to publish only the posts with certain tags. You make posts without tags, so they are correctly skipped.

    Can you tell me what to do to fix that? I had just changed those settings for the plugin to only publish the posts with certain tags. So I had this issue before that.

    The only way to fix is not setup it correctly. If you want posts without tags to be posted, please remove tags restrictions.

    I keep getting more confused with this. The plugin has not posted blog entries whether they have tags or not. Do you have any video tutorials because I really need specific instructions on how to do these things you are telling me to do. When you say please remove tags restrictions, I would like to be guided on how to remove tags restrictions.

    Please see here: https://www.nextscripts.com/snap-features/filters/

    Please remove everything you have in the tags section.

    Well I removed all tags and even categories. It is still not autoposting to my social media pages. If I uncheck filter posts even though I removed everything for it to filter through, would that make a difference?

    What do you have in the log now, after you removed filters?

    Sorry I must have missed the e-mail notification for your reply. Well it looks like it autoposted 5 posts nearly simultaneously to my facebook and twitter on the 23rd. So at least the autoposting is now working. However, I would like it to autopost only one post every 24 hours. I thought I set it up properly since I have limit autoposting speed checked, and have it set to not autopost more than one post per network every 1 days. I also have it set to Skip/Discard/Don’t Autopost if there are more posts then daily limit.

    Since I am here, I wanted to ask about a similar issue. My blog is rss feed based and I have the WP Pipes add on set up where posts get made when there are new posts from RSS Feed(s). I would also like only one post to be published on my blog per day. I set WP Pipes up through a tutorial video I found on youtube a while back. My actual knowledge of WP Pipes is very low.

    Now it’s not attaching a link to the actual post on Twitter. Just the headline of a post. This is so frustrating.

    Sorry, but this has nothing to do with the plugin.

    Plugin does not attach links to Twitter. Unlike Facebook Twitter does that by itself. Nothing can affect it.

    It’s called Twitter cards. Please check it: https://dev.twitter.com/cards/types/summary-large-image

    No on Twitter this plugin was posting links to the blog post before every time along with the post headline. If I do it manually it will post a link to the blog post still, but it’s no longer doing it automatically. Here is a screenshot of posts where it posted a link to blog posts compared to it not doing it.

    1. Are you sure those posts were made by 3.7.14?
    2. What exactly do you have in the message format?

    Thread Starter WPJ

    (@wpj)

    Well the last time it successfully posted to Twitter was on the 17th, which I believe was before an update to the latest version. For the message format I have %TITLE% – %URL%

    You haven’t answered my question.

    3.7.14 was released on Jan 24, 2017. Your screenshot has two posts from Jan 23, so they were made by the broken 3.7.12 or 3.7.13 and one tweet from Jan 25. Since it’s also incorrect, I am guessing you still haven’t upgraded to 3.7.14 (where this issue was fixed) at the time of that tweet.

    I was trying to say that I don’t remember when I installed the 3.7.14 update. My last autopost with this plugin was on the 27th, and then I turned off the autoposting for Twitter because it was no longer including a link to the blog posts. I will turn it back on and see if it’s back to normal. It should be since this is an update to 3.7.15.
