I have the Smart version of Blog2social. I am using it to autopost to Instagram and Facebook. However, whenever I schedule a post in my blog and use the Blog2Social autopost feature, the post gets immediately posted to instagram instead of only at the scheduled date. At the scheduled date, the post gets published to the blog but it is not reposted to instagram. This does not happen for Facebook. When a post is scheduled, it does never posts immediately to Facebook. However, it also does not post at the scheduled date. I think the software is also trying to publish to Facebook at time of scheduling as for instagram but for some reason it cannot. I say this because under the Blog2Social notifications, the scheduled posts show immediately a message stating "1 shared social media posts"(Instagram) and an error message for Facebook stating that "Your blog post was not available for the network at the time of publishing.". If I select the re-share option for Facebook in this notification, it works.
The instant sharing feature is working for both networks and for the same posts. Adding a post to the Blog2Social calendar works for Instagram but often (not always) returns the same error message for Facebook.
I have tried creating new scheduled posts from scratch or duplicating and rescheduling existing posts and the behaviour is the same, i.e. they get immediately posted in Instagram but not in Facebook.
Both errors are very inconvenient as the purpose of paying for the software was to have the autopost feature working and not have to worry about reposting.
Let me know if you need any further information.
Thanks
