WordPress Integration

Automate WordPress to Social Media Publishing

Social Post Flow’s WordPress integration can be configured to schedule status messages for Posts, Pages and Custom Post Types to Facebook, X, Instagram, Threads, LinkedIn and more.

Auto share Posts, Pages and more

Social Post Flow can be configured to schedule and publish social media posts from your Posts, Pages, WooCommerce Products, Events, Custom Post Types and more, to:

  • Facebook Pages
  • X / Twitter
  • Instagram
  • Mastodon
  • Threads
  • LinkedIn (Pages and Profiles)

Multiple, Customisable Social Media Posts

For each Post Type and Social Media account combination, you can specify any number of unique statuses – each with their own text and options.

Status updates are dynamically built using template tags.  These include the Post’s title, excerpt, content, date, URL, any custom field data (including Advanced Custom Fields, Events Manager, The Events Calendar, Yoast SEO and more), any Post taxonomy terms and the Post’s author.

Shortcodes are also supported in the status text.

For example, you can share your content three times to Facebook, once to X and twice to Instagram over the period of two days – each with their own, unique status messages.

Separate Options per Social Network

Unique status messages can be defined on a per-Post and social media account basis, allowing for any possible configuration to meet your social media publishing needs.

For example, you could define three short status updates for your X profile, to be posted every week after a Post is published, alongside two Facebook status updates which contain more detailed content.

Powerful Scheduling

Each social media status update can independently be set to:

  • Add to End of Social Post Flow Queue
  • Add to Start of Social Post Flow Queue
  • Publish immediately,
  • Publish at a defined time period after the Post’s publish date.
  • Publish at a defined time period after a Post’s custom field / meta value (such as an ACF date field).
  • The Events Calendar Plugin and Events Manager: schedule social media status updates based on your Event’s Start or End date, as well as display Event-specific details in your status updates.

Conditional Publishing

Easily schedule status updates to Social Post Flow based on your post’s:

  • Author – Target specific social profiles by WordPress author.
  • Published Date Range – Perfect for seasonal content.
  • Taxonomy Terms – Categories, tags, and custom taxonomies.
  • Custom Fields – Flexible rules with operators like equals, not equals, greater/less than, and partial matches.

Customize your sharing strategy effortlessly:

  • Share posts from selected authors to specific profiles.
  • Post to different Pinterest boards based on categories.
  • Schedule updates only within specific date ranges.
  • Trigger posts when custom field values meet your criteria.

Take control of your content distribution—automate with precision.

Automatically Repost Old Posts

Social Post Flow’s WordPress Plugin is the ideal solution if you want to revive old Posts, Pages or Custom Post Types that you’re unlikely to manually edit or update, which perhaps contain evergreen and always relevant content that would be useful to your social media followers.

For each Post Type, you can choose the maximum number of Posts per day to re-share, how often to re-share the same Post and how old the Post should be for it to be reposted to Social Post Flow.  For example, you can set Posts to be re-shared to social media every 5 days, 3 weeks, annually etc, relative to the Post’s published date.

Just like the settings available when publishing and updating Posts, Pages and Custom Post Types, one or more status updates can be added for each Post Type and Social Media account, as well as powerful scheduling and conditional publishing.

Manually Bulk Publish Old Posts

If you prefer more control over reviving old Posts that you’re unlikely to manually edit or update, the Bulk Publish functionality is perfect for evergreen WordPress content that you want to send occasionally or one time to your social media profiles.

The simple bulk publishing interface allows you to query for Posts, Pages or Custom Post Types published in a specified time period, before choosing which Posts, Pages or Custom Post Types to schedule for sharing on your chosen social media accounts.

You can also choose Posts, Pages and Custom Post Types using the Bulk Actions in WordPress, and send them straight to your Social Post Flow queue.

Per-Post Settings

Per-Post Settings offer greater control for the times where you need to define specific social media status updates for an individual Post, Page or Custom Post Type.

The same settings interface and options above are available in the WordPress Editor, allowing you to define one or more status updates – specific to a Post – for the publish, update and repost actions, for each social media account connected to Social Post Flow.

Full Image Control

or each Post Type and Social Media account combination, you can choose to either:

  • Use your SEO or Open Graph Plugin’s defined image (know as a Link Preview),
  • Use your Post’s Featured Image,
  • Use an Advanced Custom Field’s image field as the image source.

Social Post Flow also provides its own Featured Image option, should your Custom Post Type not have Featured Image support, and/or you need to use a different image for your social network posts vs. your Post’s Featured Image.

Alternatively, there’s an option on each status message to automatically generate an image from some text, with global configuration options including font type, size, foreground and background colors and per-profile background images.

Multiple Images per Status

For Facebook, Instagram, X, Mastodon and Threads, up to 20 images * can be specified to be included in a status update.

  • The Plugin’s Additional Images selector,
  • Automatically scraped from your Post’s content,
  • An Advanced Custom Fields Gallery field.

Users can then click on the individual images within the status to see the full size versions.

*The maximum number depends on the social network’s limit.

Built For The Future

More Features

That’s not all. Thanks to over 10 years of WordPress Plugin development, Social Post Flow’s WordPress Plugin (probably) has everything you need to automate sharing your WordPress content to social media, including:

Generate Images from Text

No Featured Image, but want to post to a network that requires an image (such as Instagram or Pinterest)? No problem.

For each status message, optionally choose to generate an image from text. Text can be separate to the status’ text.

Global configuration options include font type, size, foreground and background colors and per-profile background images.

Compatible with Frontend Posting and Auto Blogging Plugins

Social Post Flow is compatible with most front end posting and auto blogging Plugins, including:

  • User Submitted Posts
  • WP Property Feed Plugin
  • WPeMatico
  • WP Job Manager Broadbean Addon

WP-Cron and WP-CLI Compatible

When publishing or updating a Post, WP-Cron can be enabled, allowing WordPress to send status updates through its Cron system a few minutes later. This helps improve performance.

For developers and advanced users with WP-CLI enabled on their WordPress installations, Social Post Flow provides WP-CLI commands to:

  • Bulk Publish, instead of using the WordPress Admin UI
  • Repost, instead of using WP-Cron,

Not convinced? All plans come with a 7 day free trial, and can be cancelled at any time.

I tested different systems/plugins to autopost to different social media. This one was easy to set up and – after some fine tuning – works very well. No messing with API’s needed, which has become very rare.

I wanted to be able to create a [WordPress] blog and have it publish to all of my social media platforms. This [WordPress] plugin did a great job and I am able to format the post for different platforms using a short code language.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got a question? We’ve got you covered! Check out the resources below and be sure to let us know if we can answer anything else.

Which social networks are supported?

Social Post Flow supports Facebook, X, LinkedIn, Instagram, Threads and Mastodon. Tiktok, Pinterest, Bluesky and Google Business are coming soon.

Do you offer a free trial?

Yes – new customers are automatically given a 7 day free trial on their first plan, with access to all features to see if it’s suitable.

Why the limit on X profile per account connections?

The X API has a 15,000/month post cap across all users of Social Post Flow. To increase this limit costs Social Post Flow $5,000/month. As such, we’re balancing keeping your costs affordable, whilst providing fair access for all.

What are “fair post limits”?

Some social networks impose a limit on the number of posts that can be made to a profile in a 24 hour period. We honor these limits, but you’re free to schedule as many posts in the future as you wish.

Do I have to pay every year?

Annual payment is required for ongoing access and functionality. We’ll collect this automatically, but you’re free to cancel via your account at any time.

What if I need more than 30 social accounts?

Please contact us with your use case and number of accounts you need to connect.
