common question regarding the Contact limit

hi there, after a long break about two or three years ago, manychat features were free then,Manychat Fb messenger bot helped me a lot at that time. So again i came back to use its features but new plans that im not aware about it.  i have only one question. What does contact limit means?  suppose i have 10k fb messages, and the limit of contacts in manychat is 500 only. Does it mean i can only broadcast automessage to only 500?  pls explaim me and sorry my english is not good

Instagram connection with Voiceflow is not working as it should

I have a flow in Manychat that connects a chatbot made on Voiceflow with several social networks like Whatsapp, Facebook and Instagram.Recently i´m having problems whit the connection to Instagram. When i text with the chatbot on IG the messages send and error when getting to certain part of the chatbot´s flow instead of following like it should it just goes back to the beggining of the chatbot flow and starts again.Already tried changing the flow in Manychat and Voiceflow but nothing and those same flows are working perfectly on the others plataforms, also refreshed the permissions and disconnected and connected the Instagram account again just in case. Can somebody tell me why this happens?

I had my account suspended with 4 active pro plans and more than 200 dollars in balance.

Dear ManyChat Team,My account was unexpectedly suspended while I still had four active Pro plans and a balance greater than $200.00. I request the immediate reactivation of the account or a full refund of the prepaid balance.ManyChat, by not refunding this amount, is retaining an amount already paid, which constitutes an abusive practice. I emphasize that Brazilian laws prohibit the undue retention of unused prepaid balance, guaranteeing the consumer's right to a refund.I request an immediate solution:Account reactivation to continue using paid services.If reactivation is not possible, a full refund of the prepaid balance.I await an urgent response.Sincerely,Jullyanna

Ref/Utm code disappearing from the link in ManyChat automation

I have a flow where the reference and utm codes appears to be there in ManyChat and then once the automation is sent via IG the ref/utm codes disappear. It only seems to be happening with one particular automation - why is that the case? Has anyone experienced this?

Contact Imports not working

I have a Pro account, but when importing contacts for WhatsApp, not all my numbers are being imported. I’ve already checked the number format, and everything appears correct. I'm importing from a CSV file.

Why can't I use broadcasting in instagram?

Hello! I would like to use the Instagram Broadcast feature to send messages to followers who have previously commented on my posts.I found a button that seems to allow exporting the follower list—is this the correct one?Or is there another function that allows me to export a list of followers who have commented on my past posts into a spreadsheet?

Hey everyone,I have a question regarding ManyChat. Since paid broadcasts are no longer an option, how can I send messages to all my subscribers? For example, I have 10,000 subscribers in ManyChat, and I’d like to send paid messages as we used to do.

Issue with google sheet integration

Hello Everyone. I am having issue with google sheet integration. I want to save the information regarding button pressed by a user. For example, If a user selects from any of the three therapist name, I want their name to be exported to my google sheet that I have already integrated. Currently when I execute this, I am not getting the names in the sheet rather some distorted alphabets. Can any body help me in this regard? Thank you in advance.

Reply a message after the File type data collection

I would like to configure a message to automatically respond to my user after he sends a file via WhatsApp, something like "your file was received successfully", the problem is that by default, when waiting for a file to be sent, manychat forces the success condition as an action, and as far as I know... it is not possible to continue the flow after an action.

Reels and Instagram Posts

English: The linked Instagram account only shows a fraction of the posts that were created there on ManyChat. I had previously linked another Instagram account, and everything was there.I also can't seem to get a previously used link out of the system, no matter how often I do it again and the link is there correctly.Thank you for your support. I hope someone can help me.Best regardsOriginal: Das verknüpfte Instagram-Konto zeigt auf ManyChat nur einen Bruchteil der Beiträge, die dort erstellt wurden. Ich hatte vorher einen anderen Instagram-Account verknüpft, da war alles komplett vorhanden.Auch einen ehemals eingesetzten Link bekomme ich irgendwie nicht aus dem System, egal wie oft ich das neu mache und der Link auch richtig da steht.Danke für eure Untersrtützung. Ich hoffe jemand kann mir helfen.Beste GrüßeAndreas

Instagram message in Make.com not sent to Manychat

I am developing a Manychat IG conversational AI, connected to Make.com, in order to be able to set appointments. At the end of the Manychat flow, there is an action to call Make.com, and in the Make.com scenario, I am retrieving the users response (a date and time in the Manychat calendar), and adding the appointment to Google Calendar. At the end of the scenario, I am supposed to send a message to Manychat. The scenario is perfectly run in Make.com, it says the message has been sent to Manychat, but in my IG chat, I don’t receive it.  I have done the same for FB and it works, the message is sent to Manychat and I receive it in my FB chat. I don’t know what could be the main issue. You can find my scenarios and flow attached. Thank you

I need help about pro feature

HelloI enjoy using your site, but I need help with something.I just want to automatically send messages to those who comment on my posts on Instagram. I don't want to add them as contacts. As the number of contacts increases, the fee we pay every month increases and these contacts are of no use to me. I didn't even open it and look at it once. What can I do about this?I want to use Manychat regularly by paying 15 dollars every month, but the fee increases due to contacts and I cannot renew my pro subscription because my budget is not enough. I am waiting for your help quickly.

Landing pages in ManyChat?

I see that there used to be a landing page growth tool - now that growth tools have gone, have landing pages gone too? Any recommendations for a cost effective & easy to use landing page function? Thanks in advance!
