After it goes out

Open Schedule or Drop a Buzz and look under After it goes out. Each row has a switch and a line that says what it will do. Switch a row on and an Edit button appears before the switch, where you change the details.

The rows follow the accounts you ticked: Auto-repost and Auto-plug show while an X account is ticked, and Recycle while any account it can recycle is. The plan saves with the Buzz and can't change once it's scheduled. To change it on a scheduled Buzz, unschedule it from the Calendar, change the row, and schedule it again.

Auto-repost on X reposts the post from your own X account, which puts it back in your followers' feeds. Each repost comes down after 12 hours, and the post itself stays.

Switched on, it reposts once, 6 hours after the post goes out. Press Edit to plan up to 5, each After a set time (at least an hour after the post) or Later day, set time (a day or more later, at a time on the set's clock). The editor shows when each repost goes out.

Recycle posts the Buzz again later as a new post, with the same words and pictures, on every account it went to except TikTok. Switched on, it posts again every month, 3 more times.

Press Edit to set Post it again every 1 to 12 weeks or months, and Stop after 1 to 12 copies. The dates shown are a preview, and the exact minute can shift a little. Each copy is a post of its own: it shows in Analytics and on the Calendar like any other post.

• X can refuse a copy that repeats a recent post word for word. A longer gap helps.
• LinkedIn refuses a post that repeats an earlier one word for word, even weeks later, so its copies may not go out.
• Each account can have 10 posts recycling at a time.

Auto-plug on X replies once under your X post when it reaches a number of likes or reposts, with text you write. It's a place for the link you kept out of the post.

Switched on, it waits for 100 likes and opens the editor for the reply. Set When it reaches to a number of Likes or Reposts, and write the reply under Reply with, up to 280 characters. The Buzz won't send until the reply is written or Auto-plug is off.

Buzzmark checks the numbers when they update, about once an hour, for 7 days after the post goes out. So the reply can come up to an hour after the post passes your number, and a post that never gets there gets no reply.

These actions run on your X account later, without you pressing anything, so Buzzmark asks first. The first time you switch on Auto-repost, Auto-plug, or Recycle with an X account ticked, a line opens under the row and says exactly what Buzzmark will do.

1. 1

   1. Read the line under the row.

2. 2

   2. Press Turn on to agree and switch the row on, or Not now to leave it off.

You're asked once for each kind, never on every Buzz. A draft that already had one of these on before you agreed asks in its row too, and it won't send until you answer.

Each automation belongs to one Buzz. Switch its row off before you send, and nothing runs for that Buzz. Your agreement stays, so switching it on again on another Buzz doesn't ask again.

Once a Buzz is out, its rows can't change in the app. If one needs to stop, write to us from Get help.
