Hi Team, New to ManyChat. Love the concept, though the automation that i've set up to DM new followers on Instagram isn't triggering. I've tried to troubleshoot using guides, FAQs etc - not having much luck. Can anyone provide some insights? Much appreciated.SFB.

Manychat users are facing issues with the functionality, but manychat doesnt offer customer care live chat. Can you do something about it ? 

Hey everyone, my comment reply automation stopped working around 5-6 days ago. Only 10-20% of commenters are getting replies.  Is anyone else experiencing this? And has anyone found a fix?Willing to pay for someone who can help me resolve this. Let me know.Cheers, 

Hello,I’m running Facebook Instant Form ads using “Chat with leads from instant form.”In ManyChat, I can only select Facebook Ads or Instagram Ads as the trigger — not both.If I select Facebook Ads as the trigger and choose Send Message via Messenger, will that same flow automatically apply to Instagram ads and open in Instagram DMs when the ad is clicked on Instagram?If not, what is the correct way to set this up using one ad campaign and one flow, since Instant Forms appear to only allow selecting a single flow?Thanks 

I cross post my instagram reels to my facebook. How can I get the automation to transfer too? It only ever works in instagram DMS

Like if you have this same issue ‘cause this is extremely frustrating and I’ve seen too many posts regarding this.Other automations are working. I’ve tried refreshing permissions and tried contacting support. They have not been helpful at all. I followed support’s recommendation to the T and it still it isn’t working. And now support is just ghosting me..Terrible customer service.Anyone have any actual solutions?

I want a flow where the post is an offer teaser, and when people comment how much what is the offer etc, they get the offer in their inbox with buttons to order, but the business has a new post with a new offer daily, and i can’t just create a new automation every single day, there must be a better way to do this instead of running 365 automations by the end of the year, please help me :) what can be done to do this smoothly with logic idk p.s. i need all of them to eb running and i can’t do unique trigger words 

Now, practically, what I want from the flow is I want to create a flow that I can then reuse, and that if a person sends a specific keyword that I set up previously, then it will ask him, hey, do you want to download it? where ? do you want it to your inbox or email?Practically, and I want from them their email address. That's the main goal. And no matter how we do it, it sends only the first initial message and then it stops. I used the prerdesigned simple commnt to DM flow and it doesnt work. I tried this for the entire day since morning, probably about 15 hours  - but its not firing away the entrire flow. Anyone can tell me why ius that? here is the flow:https://app.manychat.com/flowPlayerPage?share_hash=102416795845311_74665cd05e198a465933aacf1cc3743075cb50b4

I had 2 organic posts that I was using the comment a word to DM automation. It was working fine. I then went into Meta Ads Manager, made a Traffic Objective Ad optimizing for Instagram profile visits using these two existing posts. Now neither automation for those 2 posts work.Is there a way to resolve this? Thank you.

I'm relatively new to ManyChat, but I have a specific question:I'm having trouble sending sales information from my WhatsApp channel to META. I create a new flow and add a META ACTION/EVENT at the end, but ManyChat won't let me select the pixel to which I want to send this information.Also, the "META ACTION/EVENT" field in the flow only allows me to enter the sale price. This doesn't make sense because I have over 200 products, and the price changes constantly; it's not fixed. How can I send the exact price to META through the pixel?How can I solve these two problems? Could someone help me?

https://www.loom.com/share/d6ab3097e2fb437bbf99fb3ff8df0a30Anyone know how to get around this? I can’t log into update whatever permission it wants. Is there a workaround to update it on the business suite or on instagram?​​​​​​​Thanks

Hey guysI’m seeing a forced ~5 minute delay on Instagram story reply automations, even when the flow is set to respond immediately. This only seems to have started recently.I’m currently on ManyChat Pro, so I wanted to check: Is this an intentional change or an Instagram/API requirement? Does this apply to all plans, including Pro and Business? Is this expected behaviour going forward, or potentially temporary? Just want to understand whether this is a platform limitation or something specific to my setup.Thanks in advance for the clarification.

Hello ManyChat Support Team,I would like to report an issue with the “Send message when a new user follows the Instagram account” feature.Currently, the automation does not trigger when a new user follows our Instagram account, even though: The user is a completely new follower The Instagram account is properly connected to ManyChat The automation is enabled and published As a result, the welcome message is not sent to new followers as expected.Please help us check: Whether this trigger is working correctly on Instagram If there are any known issues or limitations with the New Follower trigger Thank you for your support.Looking forward t

Hey y’all — I’m hoping someone can help me troubleshoot this 👀I created a broadcast subscription sequence where users should: Receive the “Subscribe to updates” prompt Click to subscribe Then automatically move through the rest of the sequence Here’s the issue: The sequence is not completing once someone subscribes Some people (who already follow me or have past DM history) are randomly receiving only the “Subscribe to our updates” message They do not receive the actual subscribe button or the follow-up messages in the sequence As a result, they’re stuck and never enter the full automation Everything appears to be connected, but parts of it are showing as not connected or not triggering correctly. I’m not sure if this is:

HiI have an issue I had not had before with smart delays.I have message sequences with several smart delays. All work but not the last. It was working but since my last update of the sequence (just message content changes) I get an error messages.I set the smart delay to 23 hours and it tells me it need to be below 24 hours (???). Even if I put one hour I get an error. Then I tried minutes and it also only accepts if it is 23 minutes or below.I really think this is some kind of glitch. It was working before without any issue. 

Please help me to solve this problem “Something went wrong. Please try again.” I already clear the cache, but it seems not working

hi i am using the pro subscription and my contacts are less than 5k why the pricing is higher? 

My ManyChat account won’t let me do ANYTHING. I can’t delete it, I can’t remove the logins, I can’t do anything. It’s connected to a Meta account that got blocked, so I can’t use it. I need to delete this account or remove the logins, but I can’t do anything on this stupid page.  

I have updated all the things, and the follow to DM still isn’t working.  It worked for about a week, and then suddenly just stopped.  Thoughts?

i have connected my Insta but my automation to send a DM to new followers doesnt work. it says there is a problem but dowsnt say what
