Each hook can represent a different social media channel (or possibly any connection Zapier offers). Save time and money as you don´t need any paid third party software to start with if you don´t want to. Just like for standard posts you got a separate section in the WordPress admin for Simple Postings including categories and tags. The only difference is that you can select an Alt-Tag and the social media channels (Zapier webhooks) where you want it to be sent. Like scheduling a standard post you can schedule your Posting for a specific date. As soon as you hit the Planning-Button the Posting gets sent to every activated webhook which schedules your data in Buffer for example. Every Posting consists of a title, a text, a featured image and an Alt-Tag for this image. No videos possible. Tipp: After scheduling a Posting you can replan it for another date and reuse it. ### Who is Simple Posting for? Simple Posting is for any person who is mainly posting text with image on social media channels like Facebook, Instagram or LinkedIn. ### Important Note Please note this is a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) plugin. You need a free [Zapier](https://zapier.com/) account to use this plugin. Zapier itself uses other third party connections where your data is transferred. ## Screenshots * [[ * Store and activate up to 5 Zapier webhook urls where your Posting gets sent to. * [[ * Overview of all Postings including Categories and Date. * [[ * Create new Posting. ## Installation 1.
