How do I schedule a conversation on Threads?

Connect your Threads account, write the opening post, and add connected replies in the platform settings. Review the media, mentions, reply audience, and quote controls, then choose when to publish the sequence.

A practical example

Introduce a new feature in the opening post and use connected replies for a use case and a product link. Preview the sequence so each reply makes sense in context.

Before you schedule

  • Verify the connected account.
  • Read the full reply sequence in order.
  • Review mentions and audience controls.
  • Check that the live conversation published as intended.

Inside your publishing workspace

Threads publishing presets

Save named presets for your Threads workflows, choose a preset when preparing content, and review the settings before publishing. Create, rename, and manage presets in your workspace.

  • Reply audience
  • Allow quotes

Presets supply reusable defaults. Review content-specific settings and account permissions for every post.

You can also apply presets across organization workspaces where you have permission to manage them.

Frequently asked questions

Threads publishing FAQ

Can Postly publish a multi-post Threads thread?

Yes. Add thread replies in the Threads-specific settings.

Can I control replies and quote posts?

Yes. Choose who can reply and whether quote posts are allowed.

Can Threads posts recur?

Yes. Postly supports recurring schedules for Threads.

Does Postly support Threads analytics?

Yes. Reconnect Threads to grant insights access, then review account views and interactions, post insights, current followers, and available demographics in Analytics. Existing plan and workspace access applies.

Does deleting in Postly remove the live content?

Delete from Postly, DELETE /posts/{postId}, and postly_delete_post remove only the post in Postly. Live content remains on every platform. Save live links and provider IDs before removing the post. For supported published content, open the dashboard post menu and choose Delete on Platforms. Keep the post in Postly and review every destination result. Delete Everywhere removes the post only after every destination is resolved. A platform may refuse removal of an individual post. Review the result before assuming it is gone.

Which media requirements should I check?

Current Postly image allowance: 8 MB per JPEG or PNG. This route supports up to 20 carousel attachments, including mixed images and videos. Current Postly allowance: MP4 or MOV, up to 1 GB and 5 minutes. Account and provider processing requirements still apply.

How many images or videos can I publish?

Up to 20 images or videos per post. Multiple items publish as one carousel; images and videos can be mixed.

Can Postly fix incompatible media?

Upload supported image formats, including JPEG and PNG. In the editor, Postly automatically converts supported images when a destination needs a different format, while keeping compatible images unchanged. Use Fix images in the channel preview for remaining size or aspect-ratio issues, then review the result. Repairs are checked again. Tiny originals, unreadable files and images that still exceed requirements need replacing or manual export. Enlarging cannot restore missing detail. Videos are not automatically compressed or re-encoded.

What if only some destinations publish?

Review each destination separately. A successful destination should not be republished just because another failed. If the result is unconfirmed, check the live destination before retrying to avoid duplicates. Correct rejected media and retry only the affected destination.

How do I schedule a multi-post conversation on Threads?

Write the opening post, add connected thread replies in platform settings, and preview the sequence. Review mentions, reply audiences, and quote controls before choosing the publishing time.
