Planable updates planable.io

We are excited to announce that you can now import your posts in bulk from a CSV file. Save time and bring your content to Planable faster — migrate it all in seconds. To try this new feature head over to page settings.

You can import up to 400 posts at a time and only posts with text, single image, link thumbnail, or video. You’ll see all your new posts right away and find the assets in the Media Library, too.

We’re super excited to announce we’ve launched access to a new platform in Planable: Google My Business.

You can connect your Google My Business accounts and start planning your content directly in Planable. Choose between posts, events, offers and add a CTA button where needed.

Keep in mind publishing is available only for verified locations.

We are excited to announce that you can now import and sync published content outside of Planable. When you connect a new page, you can now get the entire picture of your previous efforts. If you publish some posts directly or with other tools, they will be automatically displayed in Planable as well, so you can have a complete view in your calendar, grid, or feed. Imported posts can be reposted and reused in Planable. To enable the feature, head over to your page settings.

This feature is not supported for Facebook groups and LinkedIn personal profiles.

Give it a try, and let us know how it works for you!

We’re glad to announce we took a step further to ensure your peace of mind and that your work in Planable is more secure. You now have the option to enable Two Factor authentication for your account.

You can find the option in your profile settings and you can choose to enable it via an authenticator app or your email.

We are beyond ecstatic to announce Instagram Direct Publishing. The moment we’ve all been waiting for is here.

You can now schedule and publish your Instagram single image and video posts without any reminders from our mobile app. Notifications are a thing of the past.

A couple of things to keep in mind, Instagram Direct Publishing is available for: Feed posts: single image and video Instagram Business profiles (you can easily switch a personal page to a business page)

There’s a limit of 25 published posts per account within a 24-hour moving period All you have to do now is go to your Instagram page settings in Planable, click on the “Authorize” button and check the box for “Permission to publish”. When you connect a new page, a pop-up will automatically ask for the same permission. Stories and carousel posts will continue to be published through our mobile app.

We are happy to announce that Instagram Stories now fully supports assets added from Media Library. Simply drag & drop or add files from Media Library in your stories editor. Stories now support any video and image format.

We're adding another popular format for Facebook Ads in Planable. You can now create URL Carousels with Call to Action buttons!

Here's how you can use carousel ads to highlight your business, product, or story:

• Feature multiple products that link to different landing pages. Give customers more options and help raise your clickthrough rate.
• Highlight multiple features of a single product. Show different product angles or details to better educate customers.
• Tell a story. Use images in succession to illustrate a compelling narrative.
• Explain a process. Walk people through how your business works step by step.
• Sell the benefits. If your business is in the service industry, use images that show the benefits or results of becoming a customer.

Carousels with CTA can be also published as organic posts. To create carousels simply add a link to your post and on the generated thumbnail click "Create carousel".

Other improvements

• Fixed an issue with thumbnails showing a blank grey image for some links.
• Mobile apps now support Thumbnails with CTA and LinkedIn videos, please update the app to the latest version.

We're excited to add a new feature which is both fun and useful: emoji reactions to comments. Now you don't need to send a comment to acknowledge the feedback, just select 👍 or ❤️. The whole modern emoji set is available and anyone can join the party 🥳. You can give reactions to comments using one (or more) emojis to express exactly how you're feeling.

We are pleased to announce that we have finally added video & GIF support for LinkedIn posts on organization pages. Video support for LinkedIn profiles is coming soon!

We are delighted to announce that you can now create link thumbnails with a specific call to action button for your Facebook posts. Hover over your posts with a link thumbnail and select the desired call to action. You can also replace the title and description of the link, and the best part is that it's for any link, not just your verified websites! Link Thumbnails with CTA can be saved and used in Facebook Ads or published as organic posts.

Give it a try and let us know what you think.
