In short, it is important to know that editing published posts isn’t available through third-parties due to limitations from the social media channels themselves. But we do have two solutions.
Let’s say you’ve just published a post to all your social media channels and you immediately realize you’ve made a mistake. Don’t worry, you can immediately unpublish your post to all your social media channels.
Start resolving the social post
Unpublish & republish
Step 1: Go to social posts 👉 Quick link.
Step 2: Click on the social post you want to edit.
Step 3: Click on unpublish. This means the social post will be removed from all the social media channels that you've published to. You won't be able to edit the post and repost it. As this isn't possible on the social media channels themselves. So, be aware you will lose the comments and likes that the post generated.
Step 4: Then duplicate the post, make the changes you want, and re-publish to your social media channels.
2. Manually edit the posts
Alternatively, if you've noticed a mistake too late and your post has generated too many comments and likes to unpublish your post. You can edit the post in the channel itself. Open the social post in StoryChief and click on "Edit/view" to visit the post on the social channel.
On Facebook, it's possible to edit post captions, but you can't change images and videos.
Unfortunately - as has been widely publicized and discussed - there's no edit tweets option at the moment.
On Instagram, just like on Facebook, photos or videos can't be changed after publishing content. However, the following can be edited:
The caption
The location
Account tags
Alt text tags
On LinkedIn, it's possible to change and edit the Company Page and your personal profile text elements. But, as for other networks, you can't update or edit the video or images.
