  • Facebook and LinkedIn ignore Post Templates

    I've encountered an issue that's keeping me from scheduling social posts with B2S.

    I have my site connected to Facebook, LinkedIn, Reddit, Mastodon, Bluesky, and Twitter/X.

    When I use B2S to create social media posts, either singly or with the Reposter feature, it uses two different templates depending on the social network:

    1) For Twitter, Bluesky, Reddit, and Mastodon, B2S correctly uses the template that I've created in the "Networks" page.
    2) For Facebook and LinkedIn, B2S ignores the template I've configured and instead fills in: an excerpt from the start of the content, followed by tags. Even though neither of those is in my template.

    See below for an example of my Facebook template vs what B2S actually generates:

    Ope, I finally figured it out. It's the difference between a "Profile" template and a "Page" template.
