Anyone else have this happen? My client got banned for a week because of the code sending issue. This is really bad, especially during XMAS!!! Anyone else have this happen?

Hi everyone!  I’ve got a problem with my automation in Manychat, I hope you could help me.When users send multiple sequential messages, the assistant only processes the first one or restarts the conversation, sending duplicate messages. Anyone knows how can I fix this error? Thank you.

Do you or do you not need a credit card for the free plan? The pricing page shows no credit card needed but the directions show that you do need one - and when I try to activate the free trial since it shows us as using 0/1000 contacts, it won’t let me without a credit card. We have one account with a paid plan and automations are fine there, but the other account with the free plan will not work account.I deleted all automations on the free plan - I had tried to set several up but was unable to make them live so they haven’t been used.Super frustrating that it’s so hard to ask manychat. 

How can I activate an automation in a free plan? My trigger doesn't utilize any advanced features; it's straightforward (comment “XXX” to receive the XXX link in a direct message). I was under the impression that the free plan supports up to 1000 users, but only a few people have interacted with my message on Instagram so far.I appreciate any assistance you can offer!

As simple as that, I have a small test scenario and all the connections working (tested with other actions).I’m trying to send a massage from make.com and I’ve tried all types of messages, non is showing up in the whatsapp chat.Is this issue connected to the credit line that haven’t been shared by ManyChat with me?

I keep seeing this little bot and a duplication of the message I just sent via manychat. When I check Messenger there is no duplication. what is it and how do I get rid of it?  

Hi guys,I am a beginner in Manychat and I have a question.Let’s say I want people to get my checklist when they comment CHECKLIST.I want people comment “CHECKLIST” ONLY. I dont want people to get my checklist when they use “checklist” in a sentence. For example, they write a comment “I like checklist” - I don’t want these people to get it. Is this possible? Any way to set up something like this?

My contact list still going up, and mu company want to know how it works after 40000 contacts? Am i get a plus services or something else? and is there any discount services if my company spend that much for manychat?

Hi all, I’m trying to import a csv contact list on my Manychat account but when I click on “import” button in contacts section i got this error message: “Permission denied. Please contact support to enable this feature”anyone can help me?  Thanks in advance. 

Hello community,  i’m having trouble running multiple automations at the same time and need some help on how to do it or structure it. We have a chatbot on manychats which feeds our crm, so we have multiple triggers such as detect city of interest and detect product of interest e.g. if user sends a whatsapp message that contains “X”, a flow of product “X” starts and it stores “X” in a custom field called product of interest. At the same time, if message contains “City Y” in the message, it stores “City Y” in a custom field called “City of interest”. But seems that if message says I’m interested in X in City Y, it runs only 1 automation (not sure how it chooses which to prioritize) Help would be much appreciated. Thank you 

Why is this a new thing? This is anti-marketing 101. Less clicks = better results. Just get the link to their inbox, don’t make it a puzzle.Unless I’m missing something and this is a result of some legal issue with just sending something to someone’s inbox. But then ManyChat should specify that.  

Feature Request:Please build into Manychat some default behavior for handling Critical SMS Errors.Expected Behaviors: When Manychat receives a response from the Twilio API that contains an error message (Example: Error 30003); notify the Admin of the Manychat account. Admin should be able to indicate how Manychat should handle those errors. Options should include: Ignore Error 30003  Update Contacts  Start Flow  Admin should no longer be notified about Error 30003, but will get notifications about other errors. Background & Issue: For the last 24 months, I’ve been sending SMS messages on a monthly basis. I’ve recently notice that each month, my percentage of the SMS messages that are UNDELIVERED is going up. I am being triple charged for these messages; for each failed SMS I’m paying Manychat, Twilio, and the phone carrier.

Eu gostaria de entender a lógica de ter um whatsapp business já conectado a minha conta do Facebook Business e ao tentar conectar aqui no Manychat é recusada, porque?(Questão 1: Esse número será conectado a conta Manychat e só poderá ser usado com estratégias aqui, é isso?)Se o Facebook Business me concede a opção de fazer a conecção com a minha conta porque essa conta do whatsapp não é válida?Engraçado que ninguém faz um tutorial explicando o porque dessa situação?

Hi there, I managed to link Manychat with Zapier, I want to add the facebook messenger campaign name to the data sent to zapier. How can I do it please! Thanks for your help   

Hi team! I’m having a serious issue with conversation tracking. In the flows where I have AI, once the flow is marked as closed, if the client writes anything right after, the conversation completely reopens. Is it possible to automatically pause the conversation for 1 day after it’s finished with the AI? That way, if the client writes something, no flow is triggered.

Good day to everyone!In the “Contacts” I have my Widgets and I’m not really sure why they are there, I haven’t set any. I would like to delete them but can’t figure out how to do that. The link there is not available anymore and I have concerns that my clients might get confused.So is there any possibility to delete the Widgets? I appreciate any help! 

Hi everyone,  I have a request regarding the limit of request via API, there is a table that there is a limit as 10 SPS in de Suscriptor side.  My question is, if there is any way to increase user per 1 second to attend.? If thats default or by changing the plan increases or something

 All of a sudden my AI steps started firing this to everyone...

Hi All. So I have about 350+ contacts through Whatsapp. In there, are the following custom fields. Full Name, Phone (some left this blank- but its whatsapp so its there), email, image upload and State. How can I export all of this information to a google sheet and include the phone number of the contact? I have tried the tag & sequence method but the phone number isn’t coming over.

Setup an A.I automation step yesterday. Worked well all night , this morning I woke up and its been broken for 2 hours now. Same automation step works when connecting to a different IG account. Any ideas?
