General Q&A

Dear Support Team,I have created a rule to update a custom field whenever a tag is added to a contact. However, after applying the tag to all my contacts, the rule did not trigger as expected.The rule only works if I manually change the tag by entering the chat with each contact.I need to apply this rule to my entire client base of 220,000 contacts. Could you please assist me in resolving this issue?Thank you for your help.Best regards,

Hi, how can I change the direction of the automated chats and move them to the “General” section instead of the “Main” one? 

Using Manychat most of the time for dm Automations based on Keyword comments, and it works for 90% of the time, but for ±50 Messages a day I have to manually send the message.The user which commented gets an empty message to his DM’s where it says something like that: xxxx sent you a message to a comment u wrote. (dont know exactly cause I use german Instagram, but u can take a look on the added Screenshot) Is there anyway to fix this? 

Is it possible to send a DM to existing followers or do I have to manually do this follower by follower? I am not looking to automate a DM upon a new follow. I want to DM each of my 100K followers. Is this possible?

Does Manychat work with PRIVATE facebook groups? I can only select a trigger from my business profile page. 

Hello! I've been having a problem with the flow in IG for a few days now. The flow stops after clicking a button, not giving you the next step or link. After sending the first message, the quick reply works fine, but on the second message, the quick reply, which links to a new bubble with a referral link to a website, does not work. The flow stops.Here is an example of what the message looks like. A new message should appear after the "more recipes" prompt, sending the bink button to the recipe website. I do this step because otherwise, I go over characters if I put a button on it after submitting the recipe. 

How do turn off / disable this subscription feature, i tried automating and disabling the auto reply but whenever someone sending that keyword it automatically send this text 

I’m using a keyword comments to trigger DM automations but for some reason it will only send the first message in my automation.  First message has a button with the link.  66% of those who received the message clicked this link.  But only 8% of people who clicked that link received the next message.  Any ideas on how to trouble shoot this?  The second message has a 1 hour delay so should still be within the 24 hour window.  

Hi there, I set up an instagram automation that triggered for key words in the comments of a specific post. This works great. However, the automation had multiple steps and message boxes to it. The initial message box including a link to a blog would send to them but then once they clicked the link, I chose the action to opt them in for instagram DMs. Within the 24 hour window, the automation was designed to send a second message box asking if they wanted a discount code and there were a few more interactive message boxes after that one. However, only the first message box was sent to 95% of the people who clicked through the initial link sent. My understanding is that if people engage with the first message box, they can be contacted through manychat automation within 24 hours but this seems to not work for flows? The few people who got the full chatbot automation were on my contacts subscriber list. How do I convert more followers/non-followers to subscribers? I’ve read articles that

I’m new to manychat and have created a simple keyword triggered Instagram message to deliver a lead magnet. The automation has been running, but my question is now I’ve just added a smart delay followup message. So will the contacts that were in the automation from before receive the followup message? Or will the followup only be sent to those who trigger the automation after the update was published?
