Hello, I have a high traffic page and I want to use the auto-comment automation but I’m afraid Facebook will block me after a certain amount of comments. Is there any way I can automatically stop/pause the automation after a few comments?

Hello! I’m trying to set up an automation where the first 20 people to comment on the post get one autoreply, and then everyone else afterwards gets a different one. I’m having a hard time figuring it out, can anybody help please? 

A lot of people have tried using our client messenger links: www.messenger.com/t/clientname AND m.me/clientname that we have mentioned in articles and emails, yet the links are inconsistent in opening their Messenger conversation. Often times it just opens just the app, not the conversation. We noticed this primarily on phones. We have a new drop next week and we’d like to drive people to Messenger. Has anyone else ran into this? 

Hello, I just try to make your system to make request to our system.Link: https://wp-assist.it-scs.net:8082/On the server we have cerbot signed certificate.It works from Postman, but your system don't want to work with this certificate:[WARNING] Invalid request from ip=54.93.95.116: [SSL: TLSV1_ALERT_UNKNOWN_CA] tlsv1 alert unknown ca (_ssl.c:2559)

Hi Everyone! I’ve noticed the last month or so, none of my messages are being delivered (on both Facebook & Instagram). Does anyone know why this is happening? Or if there is a workaround/update I need to make? Any insight would be appreciated!

Hello everyone, my automations have stopped working. The links don't work, and now no messages, neither the welcome message nor the default reply message, are functioning. I've tried deleting the conversation and restarting, but nothing works. I've refreshed permissions 10 times and disconnected/reconnected the page twice, and nothing changes.

Evening all!  I hope you’re well this evening.   I have noticed recently that when designing flows that have an “Action” where you as the User is notified (if they have a question or with whatever) if they reach that “Action”, you, as the User, are STILL notified (through the Manychat app on the phone) the moment they send a DM that contains your trigger keyword.  How do I turn that off?  Ideally, I would like to not be aware that they are going through my flow *unless* they hit an Action in the flow that I have set up to notify me specifically.  If I could turn this off, it would drastically reduce the consistent, unending notifications that my phone rings off with lol

Hi - I’m wondering how to customize the copy that says “subscribe to our updates” under the photo.  In the first version (with the woman standing by the tree) that’s what it says, but I’ve seen others like this one from ‘herfirst100k’ where it says “Her First 100k DM List” instead.When I go in to edit that section, it tells me that I can’t per Meta’s rules...but clearly it’s being done by other accounts.Is there somewhere else to edit it that I’m not seeing?  Thanks for any help!

Hello, they made a uptdate, i’m working on a macbook and its really complicate now to navitage. Do you know if i can come back before this uptade of the pad and mouse please ? 

Hello! I have a question regarding one of my flows. It was working perfectly, but all of the sudden now the automation stops once I open and manually write on the chat. People can’t use the buttons anymore. How can I fix this? It was working perfectly for 6 months and now it changed from one day to another, and I didn’t change anything. Can you please or someone help me out? Seems also there is a 30 minutes automation stop, but I rather have it on 0, how can I make it possible?

I have been using ManyChat PRO during the 14-day trial and last week, everything regarding automations was working amazingly well, that is until Tuesday when the automated replies began to get completely chopped after the first sentence?Is there a reason why my automated replies are now being shortened to just a few words? Is there anything on my end I need to change to not have this problem happen? Thanks in advance for any help :) 

Hey, im trying to run my first Facebook Ad automation. I have the auto setup, but in Facebook Ads manager, this portion of the how to dent seem to exist and im stumped. Any help is appreciated “ call-to-action button that says ‘Send Message’.

Hi All, I’ve been using Manychat for a couple of months now successfully with dm’s. I’ve just tried to set up comment automation on several reels, the comments are working instantly but the users are not a receiving a notification that i’ve replied to their comment. I’ve tested this from 6 different accounts now all with the same result. If they go back to the video they can see a response, but they are not aware of my reply because Manychat is not sending a comment notification, the direct messaging is also working as normal. Can anyone explain this? The comments are not tagging the user either like a typical comment reply, just replying underneath.

Face has removed my post and restricted my fb account from posting and responding to my group posts 

Hi community!I would like to have a smart delay of 3 seconds between two DM on Instagram, to humanize the conversation.But it still doesn’t work because it “must be between 10 and 3600 seconds”… I saw in a program to learn about Manychat that the former could insert a 3 sec delay.Anyone can relate please?Thanks a lotxx 

Hello❤️ please tell me, if I unsubscribe old users from the bot, but later they want to interact with the bot again, do they need to immediately write the start command, and only then the code words that will start the chains?Or is it possible to solve this issue without the start command?thank you 🙏❤️

Hello! Why might the bot not work? does not work today for a specific person, even when I manually start a chain for him personally - further messages are inactive. Everything works for other people. This user follows me on Instagram, I also see him in chat, but the bot doesn’t work with himneither code words nor pressing bot buttons trigger the process

I’m using meta ads to boost some posts (I’m a tattoo artist). How to automate the action of sending messages to every new liker of that posts? 

Hey guys, I don't even know if this is the right place to post it. I wanted to give feedback and show my appreciation to the customer service. I sent a ticket, I think that's how it's called, through the online form because I had huge problems with my bot. Within a day Emelly from the Manychat team answered and provided helpful tips. She answered every followup question within 24 hours and she solved all the problems with my bot. She had a lot of patience and explained everything very well so that I as a noob could understand it. I am very thankful and appreciative for Emelly's help. If that is how every customer at Manychat is treated, then I am impressed. What a great service. If not, please give Emelly a raise, or at least a bonus. She is doing great work. Have a good one y'all

Hi, I have 2 FB business manager accounts. 1 of them is for my default business, and the 2nd is for a completely different business.For the 2nd business manager I started using ManyChat. In order for ManyChat to work properly I need to verify the business (in FB) and if FB will ask for documents, I won’t have anything to show.. If I write in the verification my business name, (that exists in the 1st business manager info), will that name be seen to the users who talk with me in Whatsapp? Thank you  

 I have created the video but haven’t posted it yet, I have created the automation… but have to now go back and post the video and select it.. I can’t see the first box where I would have had the option to select it where will I find that please

Hello,I manage automation to generate organic leads and want to set up a system to follow up with individuals who become unresponsive after a certain period. While I have already implemented smart delays and tags to follow up at specific points in the sequence, I would like to apply this follow-up approach more generally to anyone who stops responding at any stage of the sequence. Is this possible?
