Instagram Stories: Stop Sending Multiple Story Replies

I have my Instagram Stories Replies trigger set to “All Stories” and “Reply Contains Any Words or Reaction.” However, when users reply to multiple stories in a row, the automation triggers multiple times! For instance, let’s say my reply message was “Hello! Do you want my newsletter?”. When a user reacted to five of my stories in a row, ManyChat sent the message “Hello! Do you want my newsletter?” FIVE TIMES in a row! 😳 The user didn’t even have time to open the messages, and I’d already repeated the same thing five times :/ Any way to fix?? Thank you in advance for your help!

Smart or Direct Links

Hello,Is there a feature that I’m not aware of, that let’s me set up direct and/or smart links in automations?More specifically, when I add automations (for Instagram and Telegram so far) and include either internal or external links (such as adding instagram links in either instagram or telegram automations), I face 2 issues:the link first opens a popup to verify if I’m sure that I want to open the link (and even there, it shows a link related to Manychat) when I verify to open the link, it opens it in the browser instead of the app (even when the link is internal, such as an instagram link inside an instagram automation)this doesn’t feel good and lowers the conversion. So, the questions will be:can I toggle any option to make those links open without the verification popup? can I show my custom link instead of Manychat’s version? (such as our custom subdomain be used as the url shortener) can those links be opened inside the app? (like let’s say i include an instagram profile page, i

How Do I Fix This?

I have built a sandwich shop demo. The flow allows for the user to choose additional sandwich type meat, condiments and toppings… an example user field for sandwich meat types i tried to append in action step after quick reply button: (The system automatically adds triple curly brackets when i try to set value as the custom field)Set {{sandwich_type}}to {{{sandwich_type}}}, Turkeythen next message allows user to add more meat choices and loops. Same processes are used for condiments and toppings… allowing user to choose additional toppings or condiments. What i dont know how to fix is the output message summary: This is the output of an order summary. Here’s your sandwich order so far, Patrick: Bread: Ciabatta Sandwich Type(s): {{cuf_11748922}}, Turkey, Ham Cheese: {{cuf_11750847}}, Provolone Condiments: {{cuf_11750596}}, Spicy Jelly, Mayo Toppings: {{cuf_11748930}}, Lettuce, Tomatoes, Pickles Drink: Bottle WaterHelp with how to eliminate the {{cuf_ references in the summary?

Until now, I did it with a very basic automation. a user replys to my reel and gets a message with a link to a sales page. I know i can do it better….. could anyone please direct me to resources as to how I could set up a flow that will convert more? Thanks!

ManyChat Messages Sent to General Inbox Instead of Primary on Instagram

I am experiencing an issue with the integration between ManyChat and Instagram. Whenever my customers respond to automatic messages sent through ManyChat, their responses go to the "General" inbox on Instagram instead of the "Primary" inbox. This is causing me to miss important interactions since I don't see these messages right away.I have tried adjusting settings in both ManyChat and Instagram, but I haven't been able to find a solution. I would appreciate any help on how to make sure that the automated messages from ManyChat are directed to the "Primary" inbox instead of "General." Please help me 😭

Instagram ad comment trigger issue

Hi everyone,I created an automation in instagram which triggers with commenting on my post. It is working properly and easily detect people’s comments as the trigger but when I boost the post (Instagram advertising) it does not work. It can detect any normal comments but not the comments derived from the ads. This issue has started about two weeks ago. Before that the same automations were working ok for the ads too. I reckon if the instagram made changes how it shows the ads to users! For example I saw my business account advert with my private account randomly and it was showing my reel as a story with no commenting option. Anyone knows how can I fix my automations?

Issue with Buttons Appearing Incorrectly in Automation

Hello community,I’ve encountered a problem with my ManyChat automation and would appreciate any guidance on how to fix it.In the attached screenshots, you can see a button that is appearing, which should not be part of the flow. Initially, two other buttons were showing up, which also weren't supposed to be there. When clicked, these buttons lead to a flow that doesn’t even exist.I’ve already tried resetting the automation and updating permissions, but the issue persists.Has anyone experienced something similar or have any advice on how to resolve this?Thanks in advance for your help!Attaching screenshots for reference.Best regards,

Plano Elite

Olá, pessoal! Tudo bem com vocês? Eu gostaria de receber um orçamento do Plano Elite do Manychat para implementar em um de nossos clientes aqui da agência, pois precisamos de 8 ‘live chat agents’, o que o plano Pro não permite pois é limitado a 3.Já enviei uma solicitação através da página inicial de contratação e recebi a resposta, por e-mail, nesse sentido, em resumo: “Você provavelmente não precisa desse plano.” Alguém saberia me dizer algum outro contato do Manychat que posso conseguir um orçamento personalizado? Desde já agradeço grandemente!

Not Able to Share Flow

Text cursor jumps to the end of the text in the text field

I have a strange problem - when I fix something in the middle of the text in the text field, cursor randomly jumps to the end of the field/existing text. How do I fix this?

A problem I don't know the cause of, or maybe it's not a problem.

When typing the keyword in the feature (User comments on your Post), the typing cursor automatically moves to what comes after it.However, in the feature (User sends a Direct Message with a Keyword), I have to move the cursor manually, and I don't know why this happens. Is there a solution? This is an explanatory videohttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1A-UIzShrrS5vtqcuy7WsTaucUuTk3SHv/view?usp=sharing
