Automation doesn't work with Ads (FB post)

Hi! I created an automation to send a DM upon a comment with a keyword. I set it to trigger with any post, but it won’t work with a FB ad post. I tried adding the post’s ID and Manychat won’t find the post. The post isn’t showing either on the list when I try to set it to an individual post.I need this to work as my regular “comment X and I’ll DM you” posts, only that this time it’s from an ad. How can I make it work?Thank you!

My automation doesn't work for everyone

My automation isn't working. I built it, two people tested it, including myself from two different Instagram accounts, and everything was fine. However, it doesn't start for a friend of mine. He has tested my automations before, so we don't understand what the problem is. It doesn't work for him with two different keywords either. Where should I look for the issue?

Not able to send message!

I am loosing sales! Just because I cannot reply manually to him. At some point I have to take chat manually. Why I am not being able to reply?

Stories Automation Error

I’m reaching out regarding an issue we’ve been experiencing with our automation. We’ve set up an automation to respond only to specific keywords, but it seems to be replying to all Instagram stories, even when the keyword isn’t mentioned. Additionally, it sometimes triggers multiple automations at once, which is causing confusion and frustration for both us and our audience.This is for a large account with a significant following, and this issue is making it harder to streamline our processes rather than simplifying them. We rely on the accuracy of the automation to handle a high volume of interactions, so we would appreciate it if this matter could be resolved as soon as possible. Please let me know what steps can be taken to fix this, or if there's any adjustment needed on our end.Photo attached for reference:

AI automation isn't working

Streaming with AI doesn't work. My AI subscription is active but the AI flow doesn't work, only the non-AI flows are working, when I try to use an automation with AI the contact simply doesn't receive any messages. My page is connected correctly, my instagram and permissions are also connected correctly. I use AI to serve customers and I had a big impact.

Broadcast Emails To Spam

When I create a broadcast all my test emails are showing in the spam folder. Is this the case for all the emails I send out to my broadcast list of customers? I even followed a very detailed outline to keep from words like FREE etc. I have done everything I can think of even an email test showing a 9.5/10 score saying it’s not spam like. What do I need to do to assure my customers are getting my emails in INBOX, not in the Spam or Junk folder?

how to pause other streams

I have a flow that starts with a click on the link, sending a sentence and this has been working well but if during the conversation coming from this flow the user types something, ManyChat sends the default response flow this causes confusionhow do I stop ManyChat from sending other flows during the conversation?

Can't broadcast to my subscribers

Hi, I wonder how to send broadcasting(messages) to my subscribers within the system, not e-mails? It shows following message: "0 subscribers will receive this broadcastTry selecting others or reducing some of them. You also have the option to import new contacts."The AI agent couldn’t solve this.I tried to look up some instruction videos on Youtube, but they didn’t address this issue and it looked like those people making the video the system did automatically assigned the broadcasting to the subscribers without any such errors. I have obtained consent in the opt-in flow.Thank you for any insights.

Definition of the "contact"

Hi there!I’m the freshman with ManyChat tools. Currently I’m still testing the free version’s options and I’m concerned if you can define the phrase “Contact” for me. Does the Free plan have unlimited contacts?Effective December 10, 2020, new Free accounts will be limited to 1,000 contacts which include all subscribed, unsubscribed, and deleted contacts.What happens if I reach the contact limit on my Free plan and don't upgrade to Pro?Once the threshold of 1,000 contacts is reached, account owners will no longer be able to send messages to their contacts through configured automations, Live Chat, or Broadcasts. If my goal is to send IG DM’s after sb leave particular comment under the post - how should I understand the limit. If it means that I can send unlimited dms to 1000 followers, or only 1000 DMs?

Questions about ' subscriubers"

What is a subscriber and how is billing calculated? I use it to send information to people who comment on my free-to-use platform instagram for finding dog-friendly places.I post - they comment - they get the link - thats it thats all I want and all ill ever use it forI don't mind paying a little bit each month, but it is free for people to use. I've seen that 500 subscribers cost £15 a month, which I'm happy to pay. My question is, what are subscribers? Is it everyone who comments and receives an automated direct message? Can I delete them as subscribers after they receive the automated message? All I want to use ManyChat for is so that I don't have to reply with the links myself 24/7 and nothing else. realistically I cant keep using mnaychat if as the following grows im spending hundreds a month for nothing my accounds already grown from 0-25k in two weeks - currently on the free trial

Trouble with Instagram and Sending Automated Email

Hey everyone! We are having trouble with our flow on Instagram. We have created a flow where people can dm us off a story the words “level up” and we want to send them an email after. We have the automation setup where we have tagged them and separated them from all contact but cannot figure out how to blast off the emails without “sending a broadcast.” We want it to send the email out directly after they opt in. Any help would be greatly appreciated! -Brayden

Can't active automation

Hi there! I'm starting to use Manychat automations but the toggle button doesn't appear in my automation screen as can be seen in the print below.I searched in some videos and Manychat's tutorial and i'm quite sure that a toggle button must be in the left down corner of the screen.Because of that i can't run my automation. Anyone can help with that?

suspected automated behavior warning

So im getting a lot of traffic and in my videos i tell people to dm me a certain word for something in exchange. Im using manychat to auto reply to these dms and after around 3 days I got a message saying this:“To prevent your account from being temporarily restricted or permanently disabled, ensure that no other users or tools have access to your account and that you’re following our Terms Of Use. Consider changing your password to a stronger one to prevent unauthorized access to your account by third parties”How do I fix this or get past it? Am I sending too many dms daily?

Has your WhatsApp welcome message stopped working too?

I actively use Whatsapp with Manychat, and recently the welcome message option has stopped working and has also disappeared from the settings menu. While researching I found a forum, and this has happened before recently, and it is happening again. Do you know how long it takes to fix these types of things? Since the welcome message is a fundamental tool in my business.I leave you the forum in case you want to read it.https://community.manychat.com/product-updates/greet-new-customers-with-the-whatsapp-welcome-message-temporarily-suspended-2155?tid=2155&fid=None

Issue with ManyChat Instagram Integration – Mixed Options

Subject: Issue with ManyChat Instagram Integration – Mixed OptionsHello everyone,I am facing a significant issue with my ManyChat setup for Instagram. I created a new automation from scratch and added two buttons. However, during testing, the bot is sending a third option that mixes everything up and does not exist in the flow I designed.I have double-checked the ManyChat interface, and everything appears to be correct, yet the bot is providing incorrect options. I haven’t set up any keywords or fallback options, and I’m testing using my personal Instagram account, where I frequently send messages.Could this frequent testing cause the problem? Would disconnecting and reconnecting my Instagram account help, or is there a better solution?Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!Thank you!

How many automations for free account?

I read in this community that the free account allows 4 automations/triggers. I only can have two. Am I missing something? Did it change?
