What is a Recurring post?


Ever wondered what to do when you want to share the same post, but you don’t have enough time to do that manually? Simply create a Recurring post and specify its frequency to your liking.


A recurring post is a social media post that is repeated on a specific platform. These can be scheduled posts, set to reoccur daily, weekly, monthly or yearly. They might also just be one-time repetitions.


To create a recurring post:


  • Go to the Create tab.


  • Choose the social media account you wish to publish on and customize your post as desired.
  • Select Recurring from the dropdown menu.


  • Specify the recurring frequency of the post, i.e. every X many Days, Weeks, Months, Years.
  • If you choose to repeat weekly, you can also specify on which specific day you want the post to recur.
  • Select a start and an end date for the recurring range for the post.
  • Select the time when you want the post to recur.
  • Finally, click Schedule.



  • You will be able to edit the Settings of the post under the Calendar tab > Feed View > Recurring. Learn more about it here.
  • For the recurring iterations, you can go to Calendar > Feed View > Scheduled to find them.



  • Once the recurring post expires, you will be able to restart it again.


Keep in mind:


  • If you want a post to recur more often than once a week, then it needs to have at least 10 other posts in between. Learn more about the anti-spam efforts here.
  • With the help of our built-in Spintax tool you can create recurring posts for Twitter too.
  • You cannot recur posts for YouTube, TikTok and WordPress due to limitations of their API and the way these accounts are designed.
  • However, you can recur posts for Twitter, Pinterest and Google Business Profiles as long as you create 10+ variations per post using the Spintax Generator tool. Learn more about that here.
  • To add follow-up comments to a recurring post, you need to set them up while scheduling. This way, each occurrence will automatically include the follow-up comment or any other post callbacks. Otherwise, you will have to update each occurrence manually.
