Assistance Needed: Linking Facebook Pages to ManyChat After Account Suspension

Dear ManyChat Support Team, I hope this message finds you well. My name is AhmedZehery, and I am the owner of two Facebook pages: Egypt Tour Packages and Fayrouz Tours. Previously, these pages were connected to ManyChat through my old Facebook account. Unfortunately, my old account has been permanently blocked by Facebook. I am now managing these pages from a new Facebook account and would like to reconnect them to ManyChat. Details: Old Facebook Account: Ahmed Salah Zehery  New Facebook Account: Ahmed Zehery  Pages Affected: Egypt Tour Packages, Fayrouz Tours  I would appreciate your assistance in transferring the page connections from my old account to the new one or advising me on the best course of action. Thank you very much for your time and support. I look forward to your response. Best regards,Ahmed ZoheiryOwner of Egypt Tour Packages & Fayrouz Tours

WhatsApp for customer chat inside app

We would like to integrate ManyChat (preferably using WhatsApp or other conversation tools like IG or Telegram) for customer support in our app. With the Messenger Customer Chat plug-in deprecated, is it possible to implement using any ManyChat functionality/API/plug-in?

Can ManyChat Help Me?

I work for a publishing group that launches books on Amazon. During a book launch, we use Facebook and Messenger to engage with potential reviewers and gather reviews to support the book's success. Our process involves running Facebook ads, engaging with interest-based Facebook groups, and offering free copies of the book prior to publication.Up to now, this process has been entirely manual, but I believe ManyChat could significantly reduce our workload. I have a few questions to see if it’s a good fit for our needs. Managing Multiple Book Launches Simultaneously: At any given time, we may have multiple authors launching books. For example, Authors A, B, C, and D could each be promoting a different book simultaneously. Would it be possible to manage all these launches within a single ManyChat account? Specifically, can we ensure that contacts and responses related to each book are kept distinct from one another if the links provided to each audience are unique? To illustrate, if Author

Writing first

Hello everyone!I need your advice. I’ve created my automation, everything works wonderful, but no matter what I do, the bot wouldn’t go first with its message. I would like it to write to the customer as soon as the customer opens the WhatsApp chat via the link. Thanks in advance!

Please help me with my first ManyChat "Sequence"

Hi community. Please help.I am trying to understand how to use a sequence to send follow-up messages when a subscriber downloads a free guide I’ve offered.An Automation can handle the delivery of the freebie. Then I want to wait 24 hours and ask them if they received it. Then I want to follow up every 24 hours, up to 8 times, until they reply. I thought I could do this with a sequence but the interface is not intuitive.I see that I can add a new “message” and set the schedule. However, each “message” seems to be an entire automation on its own. Ok, I can set it to just contain 1 message and then go back to the the steps list. What blocks me is that it asks for a trigger action. I could expect to attach the entire sequence to the adding of a tag in an automation. That makes sense. But it asks for a trigger for each “message” (step) in the sequence. That doesn’t make sense to me.Thank you in advance!

FB ads that require a live link be sent to prospect...HELP!

Is it possible to have the bot engage with a prospect through a FB ad, but also attach a real time link once the prospect responds? I’m a real estate agent and want to place ads on FB that require the prospect to message me “get list” and then the bot sends them a list of homes that match the FB ads criteria.
