Can I schedule a Facebook Live video?
Yes, you can schedule a Facebook Live video using Facebook Live Producer. Here’s how:
- Go to Live Producer on your Facebook Page.
- Select “Schedule a Live Video”.
- Choose the date and time you want to go live.
- Add your title, description, and thumbnail.
- Set your audience and visibility preferences.
- Click “Schedule Live Video”.
Your followers will get a notification when it's time, and a post with the upcoming live video will appear on your Page.
Why do my scheduled Facebook posts sometimes not go out as planned?
There might be several reasons, including:
- Permissions issue: Your account may not have the required permissions to post. Reconnect your account and grant all requested access.
- Expired token: Recently changing your password may lead to token expiry. To sort it out, you must reconnect your account to Recurpost to continue posting.
- Group or Profile post not published: Posts to Groups and personal Profiles require manual publishing. Check on RecurPost’s mobile app for a notification to complete the posting.
- Time zone mismatch: The scheduled time may not match the Facebook account’s time zone.
- Content issues: Posts with missing media, unsupported formats, or flagged content can fail to publish.
- Platform limits: Facebook may restrict publishing due to spam detection, rate limits, or temporary API errors.
How do I schedule Facebook posts?
You can schedule posts using the Meta Business Suite or a tool like RecurPost.
- In Meta Business Suite, choose “Schedule” after writing your post.
- For more control, RecurPost lets you:
- Plan content across Pages, Groups, and personal profiles
- Use a drag-and-drop calendar
- Set recurring schedules
- Organize posts into content libraries
Can I schedule Facebook Reels, Stories, and Feed posts?
Two of the formats can be scheduled via Recurpost.
- Feed posts and Reels publish directly at the scheduled time
- Upload media, add captions, and choose format, all in one place
- To publish stories on your personal profiles, go to the RecurPost web app, schedule your story, and then tap on the reminder notification. If you are posting on your page, no notification is required
Can I schedule posts to Facebook Groups and personal profiles?
You can schedule, but these posts need a quick tap to publish.
- Facebook doesn’t allow direct publishing to Groups or profiles
- RecurPost sends a mobile notification when it’s time to post
- Open the alert, and share with one tap
Can I schedule recurring posts on Facebook?
Add posts to a content library where RecurPost allows you to schedule recurring or evergreen content that automatically republishes according to your defined schedule, keeping your best-performing content in rotation without manual intervention.
Can I schedule multiple Facebook posts at once?
Yes, upload and schedule multiple Facebook posts at once in bulk, enabling efficient content planning for weeks or months ahead with minimal effort.
- Upload posts in bulk via CSV
- Choose content directly from your saved libraries
- Apply time slots or let the tool pick best times
- Schedule days or weeks of content in minutes
Can I preview my post before it goes live?
Yes. RecurPost shows a real-time preview of each scheduled Facebook post before it goes live, allowing you to see exactly how your content will appear in the feed.
- See how text, images, videos, and links will appear
- Catch typos, layout issues, or broken links
- Edit before it’s published
Can I use hashtags or tag Facebook Pages in scheduled posts?
Yes, both are supported.
- Mention public Facebook Pages using “@”
- Facebook may auto-convert mentions into tags when the post goes live
- Tagging people is not supported due to Facebook’s API limits
Can I schedule Facebook posts for different time zones?
Yes, RecurPost allows you to assign a different time zone to each connected Facebook account. This is especially useful if you're managing Pages for clients in different regions or running a global brand.
- Scheduled posts will go live according to the time zone set for that specific Page, not your local time
- This avoids errors like missing peak hours or posting too early or too late for your audience
- You can update or adjust the time zone setting at any time from your account dashboard
What happens if I change or edit a post after scheduling it?
You can edit any scheduled post before it goes live.
- For Pages, the changes update instantly in the queue
- For Groups and Profiles, you can still edit until the mobile reminder is triggered
- You can change text, images, links, or the scheduled time
- If you replace media or change the format (like switching from Feed to Story), just save the changes and it updates accordingly
- Posts that are already published can’t be changed retroactively, but you can duplicate them and edit the new version
What if I miss the mobile notification for a Group or Profile post?
If you don’t act on the notification, the post won’t go live.
- RecurPost doesn’t have permission to auto-publish to Groups or personal profiles
- If you miss the notification for a scheduled Facebook post, you can still go into your RecurPost account and repost it manually, ensuring no content is lost even when notifications are overlooked.
- The app doesn’t delete missed posts, so they’re easy to reschedule
- To avoid missing alerts, make sure push notifications are enabled on your phone and the RecurPost app isn’t battery restricted in your settings
Why can't I see Schedule posts on Facebook?
If you don’t see the “Schedule” option when creating a post, it could be due to a few common reasons:
- You’re trying to post from a personal profile, Facebook doesn’t support native scheduling there
- You’re using the standard Facebook app instead of Meta Business Suite
- Your Page role doesn’t allow scheduling, only admins or editors can do it
- Facebook’s interface may have temporarily changed or removed the button
- If you’re on mobile, try switching to the desktop view for full features
What analytics can I see for my Facebook posts?
RecurPost provides detailed analytics for every connected Page.
- View reach, impressions, reactions, comments, shares, and link clicks
- See which libraries and time slots bring the most engagement
- Identify top-performing posts and use that insight to plan future content
- Export reports or share white-labeled versions with clients
- RecurPost also separates organic vs paid performance if you’ve boosted a post
How to make a Facebook post shareable?
To make your Facebook post shareable, go to the post, click the three-dots menu icon, and select Edit Audience or Privacy (note: the exact name may differ slightly between desktop and mobile app).
Then, set the audience to Public so anyone can share it.
If you prefer to restrict who can see or share the post, you can set the audience to Friends (visible only to friends) or Only Me (visible only to you).
