HiSo I’m having this issue for a few days now that manychat sees our new inbound messages, but once the lead replies it is not updating any other messaging between our team and the lead that happened through Instagram on Manychat.Not entirely sure how to fix this, tried contacting support but no luck so far.If you have any ideas besides the basic refresh permissions make sure your IG is a business page and have a FB page properly connected I’m an open book :) 

Ive set up a very simple automation for sending a DM anytime someone comments on any of my posts with the keyword but it doesn’t work when i test on a different account or have a friend comment Its weird because the automations trigger for Instagram DM’s for the same automation/keywords and it sends when i preview and send the test code but doesn’t work when its live Ive tried everything but for some reason nothing works Heres the very basic automationhttps://manychat.com/flowPlayerPage?share_hash=1019482_c0c524435333fd2e2327db20410ca92bf7d93253

On Instagram, since June 28, 2024, the entire automation stopped sending. Only the first word and a link are sent. We have checked all the settings but cannot find the problem. What can be done in this situation? Thank you for your help. 

Hey guys,So I have set up a campaign on FB Ads Manager & have linked it to a Manychat Automation (Trigger - User clicks on Ad)However since a few weeks I have been noticing that now when users see my Ad & click on the “Send Message” CTA they are redirected to my DM, but the automation does not get triggered. Instead they have to send a message to me normally.This is leading to replying to the messages manually, which could ideally been automated. Not just this, but my response time also is getting affected.Any guesses why this could be happening?

Hi there, I tested the auto DM link from comments a few days ago, but the feature is not working for me because the comments are coming from Instagram users who don’t follow my account, and they don’t allow DM chat from everyone, so they cannot see the automatic messages. Is there any solution for this? Thanks 

Can I dynamically track user interest and keep the conversation going instead of stopping after one upsell? Is it worth upgrading to the ai plan?Can we use webhooks to ManyChat to confirm payments, or should we track Stripe transactions separately?

Facebook has released a new option that now allows connecting existing WhatsApp Business numbers. Does ManyChat already have this capability?Please don't be the last ones to implement this feature.

Hi Community,I need urgent help! A customer’s WhatsApp Business account was blocked after attempting to integrate with Manychat. Despite submitting a support ticket to Manychat over a week ago, responses have been delayed, and the issue remains unresolved. This has left the customer unable to handle any WhatsApp requests, causing a significant impact on their business.I’m struggling to get proper attention from both Manychat and WhatsApp. Does anyone know how to escalate a support request with Manychat or have any suggestions to help unblock the account quickly?Any mitigation plan would also be greatly appreciated. We attempted to install regular WhatsApp (non-business), but that too was blocked. Meta flagged the account due to suspected integration activities that violate their policies.Any advice would be greatly apprec

Hi ManyChatters,I’ve been having issues with some accounts since last week that says:“This person messaged you about a comment you made on their post.”But there was no ManyChat message or link. Some people have responded they aren’t seeing anything but I’m afraid there are others who won’t bother. Is this a known issue too?

Call option is available in Manychat ? Once User clicks the Call button it should dial directly. Else any work around is there to achieve.
