Step 1) Create your template
Templates are where you create all your party posts, all in one list. That way, you'll be able to schedule an entire party's worth of posts all at once!
Step 2) Download and log into the Chrome extension
This tool is the bridge between your PostMyParty and Facebook accounts, and is necessary for your posts to publish automatically.
Step 3) Schedule your party
Your posts can be scheduled to Facebook groups, business pages, events, and Messenger chats. We walk you through how to schedule your template to post to any of those locations here:
Step 4) Ensure your posts are ready to publish
This step is very important!
Once you have parties scheduled that you want to post, you will need to either:
⭐Pre-load your content to Facebook (recommended)
If this method is used, the posts will publish at the time scheduled for without your computer needing to be on.
OR
⭐Ensure your computer is set up to publish by making sure the below conditions are met at the time your posts are scheduled for:
Your computer is on. **If you are using a laptop, be sure to keep the lid open.**
Your browser is open (the same one you had downloaded the extension to).
You are logged into your Facebook account, in that same browser.

The Chrome extension is on and has been refreshed.
If this method is used, when the time for a scheduled posts arrives, the extension will open an new tab, publish to the Facebook location it was scheduled for, then close the tab.
