Getting Started

Five steps from nothing to a live post. Nothing here needs a card or any code, and most of the time goes to one network's authorisation screen.

1. Sign up

Create your account at fopost.com/dashboard with email, Google, or GitHub. Your first two connected accounts are free, no card required, so you can finish this whole page before deciding anything.

2. Connect one account

Go to Accounts, click Connect next to a network, approve on that network's own screen, and you are back. FoPost never sees or asks for your password.

Pick whichever network you post to most. A few have prerequisites on their own side (Instagram wants a Business or Creator account, for instance), and Connecting Accounts covers each one. The full list of networks is on Supported Platforms.

3. Write the post

Click New Post, type your text, and tick the account you just connected. The preview on the right renders the post as that network will actually show it, so a truncated line or a badly cropped image surfaces now instead of after it ships.

Attach an image if you like: it lands in your Media Library and stays reusable. Creating Posts covers per-network overrides, threads, and the rest of the composer.

4. Publish, or schedule it

Two buttons, one decision:

• Publish sends it now
• Schedule picks a date and time, and the post goes out then whether or not your browser is open

Scheduled posts live on the calendar, where you can drag them around until they ship.

5. Confirm it landed

The post shows a per-account delivery status with a link to the live item. If a network rejected it, the reason is right on the post and one click retries just that account.

That is the whole loop: everything else in FoPost is this loop with more leverage.
