1. Using the top menu bar navigate to "Find Content".

2. Select "Re-share your best posts" from the available options.

3. Press into the search bar to display a dropdown of your connected Social Profiles. 

Note: We can only fetch Facebook Group posts from the last 90 days, due to Facebook's data-retention policy.

Note: Due to Twitter API limitations imposed starting with April 29th, 2023, SmarterQueue can no longer import content from your connected Twitter profiles.

4. Select the profile you're interested in and scroll down to view all of the available posts below. 

The posts will be sorted by top engagement metrics depending on the social platform (for example, the default sorting metric used for Facebook profiles will be Most Liked). 


How To Filter And Sort Content Search Results

Filter and sort the content using the menu items above the search results. 

All social platforms give you the option to search for specific terms within the posts, as well as filter by content type. 

1. For Facebook, you can choose to re-arrange the content by "Latest", "Most Liked", "Most Shared", or "Most Commented".

2. For Instagram, you can choose to re-arrange the content by "Latest", "Most Liked", or "Most Commented". 

3. For LinkedIn, you can choose to re-arrange the content by "Latest", "Most Liked", or "Most Commented". 

4. For Pinterest, you can choose to re-arrange the content by "All", or "Links". 


Note: Keep in mind that the results will only include Pins from personal Boards, so you might not always see all of your say "Latest" pins if you're also pinning to group/collaborative boards.  Pinterest’s API unfortunately doesn’t have a way to deliver all of the latest pins for a user. 

Instead, it provides a list of your boards and then the pins on each board. The way we try to get “all Pins” is by fetching all Pins for each board in turn. However, we don’t include "group/collaborative" boards when doing this, as they can contain large numbers of pins, and from other people. To see all of the Pins on any board, simply select the individual board to load all of the results. 


How To Re-Share A Post

1. Choose the post you'd like to re-share and click the "Share" button.

2. You can either "Share Full Post", "Share Photo + Link", "Share Link", or "Share Photo". For more information on what these options mean, head over to our article on What Is The Difference Between Share Photo, Share Link, Share Photo + Link & Share Full Post?

NoteKeep in mind Videos and GIFs cannot be pulled via Find Content. For these posts, the media will be published as a static image, and for some platforms with a link to the video. 

3. After selecting the portion of the content you'd like to share, finish editing in the Post Editor. 

Here you can choose a Category, select the profiles you'd like to share to, set your Evergreen settings, and finally add the content to your Queue!


How To Import Multiple Posts

1. To quickly import multiple posts into your Queue at once, toggle on "Bulk".

2. You will then be able to use the Bulk editor to select the Category you want for your posts, and the Social Profiles you will be posting them to, as well as toggle Evergreen Recycling on or off for them. 

3. Once you've chosen the setting that should apply to the majority of the posts, you can scroll down and make any changes you want to individual posts. 

💡 If you are only interested in selecting a limited number of posts from the fetched content, you can toggle off "Select all/none" and then scroll down to manually select and edit the content you want to share. 

4. Once you're done editing, click to add the selected posts to the bottom of the Queue 💪 


How To Save Content Sources

If you want to come back to these sources in the future and save the time you would spend searching, you can save them under "My Sources", in the left-hand column of the Find Content area. 


Common Questions

1. Are there any legal repercussions when re-sharing content?

We recommend that you always assume that the original content creator owns the rights to the content that you are reposting.

Some social networks, such as Twitter, highlight this in their terms of service that enables users the right to retain what they post.

In this case, it is always best to give credit to the content's original creator by tagging them. For example "Photo by @username" may be sufficient enough.

We recommend customizing any content you curate in order to add your own flare. If you're in doubt, you may also want to contact the creator directly and ask their permission to repost their content.

2. Why don't any Social Profiles load when I search for content?

If you've typed something into the Find Content search bar and nothing loads, please be aware that it might take up to 10 seconds to fetch the content if there are many Social Profiles associated with your search terms.

After typing in your search words, be sure that you do not hit enter or click outside of the search bar. Simply type your search term, wait for a few seconds and your results will populate!

3. Can I search for Pins from Pinterest boards I follow?

Due to limitations with Pinterest's API, SmarterQueue can no longer import content from Pinterest boards that you follow. At this time, you can only import content from your own boards.
