FAQs

Why do I see placeholder images for some of my Sent/Published Posts?
Placeholder images typically appear if your post was deleted or your profile was disconnected.

Why are some of my upcoming Reels posts missing?
The Grid Planner will only show Reels that have been marked as shared to your profile feed. You can select Share Reel to your profile feed in the Publishing window to ensure they appear in this view.
