- Facebook Permission Change: Monday 30 July. Effective 30 July 2018, Facebook will no longer allow 3rd parties to create and publish posts to a users Personal Page. This does not affect Facebook Business Pages already in compliance.
- In order to comply with this change the Zift platform will now require a Page to be selected when authorizing our application to connect to partner's Facebook accounts. You will authorize Facebook in the Social Media Settings.
- The steps will vary depending on your current set-up. If you are currently using a Profile, here are the steps:
- Select Settings > Social Media Settings > Facebook
- Select the blue link Personal Account.
- Select Business page
- Save.
- This permission change will not impact your ability to create, schedule, and post to your Pages.
- Converting your Profile to a Page creates a new Page that is based on your profile. By creating a Page, you can use more tools and share with a wider audience.
- How to set up a Facebook Page and How do I convert my Profile to a Facebook Page are good resources.
- Effective immediately, Xing removed the ability for 3rd parties to create and publish posts to their social platform. All previously scheduled Xing posts will not go out.
