How to Create Multiple Posts at Once with Bulk Templates
The bulk template feature allows toolkit builders to create multiple posts at the same time with a standardized post template.
This tool can be used to build multiple posts for different audience types—such as sponsors, speakers, and partners. Before you begin, prepare a spreadsheet with the information that will populate the posts.
Potential columns for your spreadsheet may include:
- A column with image links. Note that the images must be hosted online to apply the link.
- A column with attendees’/speakers’/etc’s names
- A column with different links
How to Create a Bulk Template Post:
- Click the arrow next to "Create a New Post" and select Bulk Post Editor. A new window will open.
- Select Your Social Media Networks.
- Enter Your Text. Use placeholders in double brackets [[TEXT]] to indicate where spreadsheet data should be inserted (e.g., [[PARTNER_NAME]]).
- Upload a Template Image. Use an image with a blank space where a variable (e.g., a logo) will be placed for each post.
- Add Links and Captions. Like the text, these can also use bracketed placeholders (e.g., [[LINK]]).
- Click Next and select the box where images (e.g., logos) will be composited onto your template to set up the image placement.
- Paste Your Spreadsheet Data by copying and pasting the CSV text from your spreadsheet. Click Next to generate your posts. Note that the platform has a 300-post limit per bulk upload.
- Rearrange image order and adjust object fit as needed. Save your changes.
