If X rejects a post
Manus sees the same message and can fix the post for you.

|---|---|
| You are not allowed to create a post with duplicate content | X blocks posts that match one you sent before. Change a few words, or add a picture, and schedule it again. |
| There must be a maximum of 4 items per post | Remove pictures until there are 4 or fewer, or send one video instead. |
| There can be maximum of one cashtag ($SYMBOL) per post | Keep one $TICKER per post and move the rest to a reply. |
| Publishing articles on X requires an X Premium subscription | Articles need X Premium on that account. Post it as a thread instead, or upgrade on X. |
| X rate limit reached, please try again later | X limits how often an app can post. Space your posts out by a few minutes and retry. |
| X authentication has expired, please reconnect your account | Open the channel in BrokenPost and click reconnect. Your scheduled posts stay in place. |
