General Q&A

Hi. I posted previously about trying to manage email alongside the various Manychat channels. I know that this is not possible in MC but assume someone is doing this in another platform. Our use-case at the moment is Instagram (2 accounts), SMS via Twilio and Email. Can anyone recommend a platform that would enable this?  Thanks. 

Is it possible to get a user's date of birth? And according to his answer to send him an output (which develops logic)?

Hi! Wonder if anyone has experienced issues with DM not showing under the Live Chat conversations inbox?  We started experiencing this issue on 2/28/24. We’ve reset permissions multiple times and have disconnected and reconnected our IG account to ManyChat. We’ve also ensured no other settings have changed on our IG account. Support shows an ETA of 7days, so I’m trying to get any assistance from the community. Thanks in advance!

Hi I’m having a problem.I’ve been working on Instagram conversation starts without much fuss. But when I’ve tried making the same for messenger, I can’t set up the trigger to be “user clicks on a conversation starts item”, which in Instagram case was a default setting.   what am I missing?

How many accounts can you send DMs to in the free version of Manychat?We have successfully sent a DM with a response under a post a few times, but now it no longer works and we haven't changed anything!

Hi there. I am currently unable to see the chat flows that I have built. When I go to view or edit my automations, I cannot see any of the nodes or boxes, everything is blank. However the automations are still working on IG and FB. I have refreshed permissions, restarted my computer, logged out, refreshed my internet, all multiple times without any change. Any suggestions? 

Hi, is it possible to send our sInstagram subscribers mass sales campaign?Or is it only possible in messenger? thanks a lot!!

Good day, I’m Sean from a branding agency based in Malaysia, I’m looking to get in contact with Manychat sales team as I would like to propose this feature to my client over in Malaysia. My email is seanloke@brandtales.net

I had the Instagram DM list feature enabled for one of my accounts and have a little over 1k people subscribed to my list. Am I still able to send a broadcast to them through the Instagram app instead of Manychat?Also I’m not able to create a broadcasr channel on Instagram app and was wondering if this is because I have the DM List feature enabled on Manychat?

Hi there peeps!We want our clients to be able to use their support resources and access the “live chat” function so they can give support in all their channels at once.But we don’t really want them to be able to access all our automatizations and the rest of the “behind the scenes” work we do for obvious reasons.Is that possible to do?

Still new to Manychat so I’m still confused on how to organize flows. We have flows for keyword DMs with these codes but what if they comment on the post? If I create a User Comments on your Post with all these keywords and details, how can I arrange to make sure that the correct detail is sent using the correct keyword? Any help is appreciated been racking my brains for an hour or so.  

Does Manychat work with Patreon?

Hello, I would like to know the rate of sending messages by manychat on instagram, when we use the automation of comments on a post. I see that it is sending slow and it would be nice to know the number of posts per hour or per day.Thank you.

Hi, is there possibility to setup manychat workflow for facebook reels? I cant find reels when I want to setup Comment ➡️ Message reply automation. Thank you in advance.

I use the auto reply function, but comments stop on Instagram too often.Many comments are coming up on Manichat's automatic reply, so it's frozen quicklyI want you to talk to Instagram or Facebook so that comments running with the Manichat function are not suspended.

Ok this might be simple… i want to build a massive automation that starts with a keyword, i have worked that out, but i want to ask the user a question like “where are you from” they answer “USA” and because “USA” is the keyword it fires off the next part of the message.from there i can build everything out, i just seem to be stuck with this bit…I would love any help cheers

Hi, I am building my Instagram bot now and I want to keep testing the conversation starters on live.So I go through my personal account to the business account on which I am building, but once I initiated the conversation starters once, I can’t trigger them again. How do I reset the conversation so I can go through the starters again?

When I create a link button in WhatsApp bot, it is not displayed to the client.In the simulation, by the way, it is shown, but not to the client.Does anyone know how to solve this?

Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to send out an email to everyone who has commented on my past posts to get my recipes? I’d love to send a message to them or email notifying them of my recipe ebook launch for them to get the early bird price. Trying to figure out the easiest way to do that. Thanks!
