Hello, I configured a simple automation here : So far, it works. It's the next step that doesn't work: When the person clicks on the "Envoie moi le lien" button, the "DM with the link" step is not triggered. I refreshed the permissions, checked that everything was in order via the help center, and it is. I'm a little desperate, could you help me?

From this post:It says it is resolved, but after publishing my reel and adding the quick reply button, I have tested in multiple divces that the DM does not in fact contain the quick reply. What am I doing wrong, if this has already been marked as Resolved?

As usual, Manychats monthly downtime has started. WhatsApp automations are not triggering. I cannot wait until another product comes along. This has been like the 5th issue with manychat affecting our business in the past few months. Supports been OK - sometimes great - but the lack of actual fixes is mind boggling. No report on the status page either. Status is showing 100% uptime. What a joke.

Hi Manychat Team,I’d like to submit a feature request regarding the Comment-to-Messenger functionality. Currently, it seems that only 3 standard replies can be set per comment trigger.For my use case, I’d love to be able to set many more variations — for example, 20 or more — so that the automated responses feel more personal and dynamic. This would make interactions with followers feel more natural and engaging, and reduce the sense of repetitiveness.It would be fantastic if you could consider increasing the number of reply variations per comment trigger in a future update.Thanks for your time and for creating such a powerful platform!Best regards,Jan

Hello everyone!I’m building an Instagram Direct agent: ManyChat (Instagram Direct Messages) → External Request → n8n → reply to the user. What’s happening (the issue)  A user messages us in IG DM. ManyChat triggers an External Request (webhook to n8n) and immediately sends a message to the user, but it’s an old value (looks like it’s pulled from a custom field from a previous run). A few seconds later, n8n finishes processing and produces a new reply (I can see the correct text in the output of the last n8n node). But the user doesn’t receive anything else — they only get the early “old” message that was sent before the webhook completed.  How can I force ManyChat to wait for the webhook response (External Request) so

Hello,Please, I want to connect MannyChats to my Google ads.I believe this will help improve the quality of leads i get from my campaign because the UI in MannyChat is great!Any Idea or step-by-step process on how I can do this? Thank you. 

The Quick Reply issue was resolved last night. However, the moment I reconnected my Instagram account, I immediately received a 7-day messaging restriction. This is unbelievable. My bot didn’t even send a single message to anyone, yet I was banned right away.I can’t be the only one experiencing this. I’ve been using my ManyChat bot for months without any issues, and I haven’t made any changes at all. The only thing I did was reconnect my account to ManyChat and refresh the permissions.Who can help me with this? I got a 7-day messaging ban, and there’s no way to report this problem to any Instagram official. I already waited 3 days for the Quick Reply issue to be fixed, and now I’ll be out of work for another 7 days.

I’m new to Many Chat and have a question… is it possible to integrate a facebook/meta conversion pixel within the chat for a user fulfilling a specific action - eg. downloading an ebook?My goal is to drive users to chat, and then optimise towards an action in the chat without taking them to a separate website to fulfil the action.Many thanks

I see this message when I send links to people with Manychat who comment on my posts in instagram. I’m assuming it happens for all redirect links that are sent on all platforms with a free account. I’m wondering if this goes away with a paid account as I want it to be more seamless for my followers.

Hi I want to sell products on live chat and to do so I linked my stripe account to see the Catalog button under payments section in the settings, but whatever i did the catalog button is not showing!

I want them to go into my General DMs. This is because I have push notifications turned on for my primary DM’s and don't want my phone to buzz every few seconds.  Would greatly appreciate some help.

Hi everyone,I'm experiencing some issues with an automation I've set up in ManyChat, and I'm hoping for some guidance.Here's the scenario: I've created an automation that sends a message when someone comments a specific keyword. If the user clicks on a "quick reply," they are directed to another automation. However, I've noticed that the "quick reply" option doesn't show up for some users. To address this, I've set up a "Follow up if contact hasn’t engaged" action to wait for 10 seconds before following up. Unfortunately, this only works sporadically.Additionally, I've enabled the "retry if reply isn't a quick reply" option twice. But if the user sends another message instead of clicking the quick reply, this option also doesn't work as intended.Here are the specific issues I'm facing:The "quick reply" button not showing up for some users. The follow-up action only working intermittently. The retry option not functioning corr

Manychat allows me to change my automation flow basis on this condition (Whether the user is a follower or not). Recently while speaking to a fellow Instagram business owner, I got to know there is no official Instagram API to check if the user is a follower of your channel or not and there is a high chance Manychat is scraping our IG account to check for follower status. With this question, I want to clearly ask if Manychat is scraping our account to check for follower status? If not, pls provide with Instagram official documentation through which this is made possible on Manychat.  Nothing can be more harmful to me other than getting my IG blocked, hence this is imp for me to 

Hello!I posted a real video using the new "test" feature, which allows you to show your real video only to non-followers. If the performance is good enough, we can then publish it to our profile and make it visible to our community.​​​​​​​Do Manychat automations with a comment and sending a private message work with this new feature? ThanksManon

 I’m trying to send a message through WhatsApp — the account is connected, and everything looks fine in the Meta panel.I was using it normally about 30 minutes ago, but when I tried to reply to a customer just now, this error started appearing.I’ve already updated the permissions in the panel, restarted everything, and tried every possible fix, but the error still persists.  Estou tentando enviar mensagem pelo whatsapp, a conta está conectada, whatsapp tudo ok no painel do metaestava usando a 30 minutos atrás normalmente, fui responder um cliente agora começou esse erro.Já atualizei as permissões no painel, reiniciei, fiz tudo o possível e o erro continua.

None of my Comment automations are working on any of my accounts. DM automations are fine, only comment automations aren’t working… Is ManyChat aware of a problem?

Did anyone have a problem with cancelling ManyChat Pro subscriptions? I definitely canceled mine well before the next billing date only to find out that the subscription was still active. I was charged the bill accordingly even when I DEFINITELY cancelled well before the next billing date of May 23, 2024. What the hell, ManyChat? Your Pro product had its bugs and hiccups even for $45, your support replies take forever, and you can’t even process a subscription cancellation request correctly? I got dusted by my boss because of you!

Hi I want to setup an automation for people who are sharing me my own reel or post, I want to send them a message once they have sent me my own reel or post.HOW TO DO THAT?

My automation, which has been running fine for weeks, has just sent people a message (facebook only) suggesting they have been subscribed. This isn’t even my message and have no clue where it has come from.I checked the automation messaging and have attached it. It should send them a free guide. How do i stop this if it isn’t even my message / wording?^^^ This is not my message???^^^ it should have sent this. This automation is fine on Instagram but this was the first time it had been requested on Facebook

Hello,I’m using ManyChat with my Facebook Ads (CTA “Send Message”). Until recently, everything worked fine: when someone clicked the ad’s CTA, my Messenger flow started automatically.But now, it doesn’t work anymore: The “User clicks a Facebook Ad” trigger is properly configured. The flow is set to Live. In Ads Manager, I selected Partner App = ManyChat and the correct message flow. I even tried creating a new flow and reconnecting ManyChat to my page, but no success. Has anyone faced this issue before? Is there a specific step needed to make sure ManyChat takes over after the ad click?Thanks a lot for your help 🙏

Hello Chat!I have 1 main account for Instagram with 8 other account pages under it. One of those account pages is currently connected to manychat for posts, reels, and DMs. How do I connect a different automation to another one of those profiles? Thanks in advance! Happy Friday!
