Improved Facebook Visit Action

We've improved our Facebook Visit action to function in a similar way to our Google+ Visit.

This now means that it's a two step process:

  • User Visits Facebook Page
  • Has the chance to Optionally Like the Page or click Continue.
Improvements to the Facebook Visit Action on Gleam.io

Up until now submitting media from different social sources required multiple actions. We've listened to customers who want a flexible consolidated media submit action.

Facebook Photo submit actions now function more like Instagram and Twitter by pulling in the last 21 photos to select from. Facebook Photo Submit now also supports #hashtag filtering too.

Improvements to Facebook & Twitter for the Submit Media Action

We've also increased the number of historical Twitter messages we'll scan looking for images.

All media submit actions now have duplicate photo checking, we were seeing issues were users could submit the same image over and over again.

Upload actions now support the ability to allow users to add a Caption to their photo.

New Feature: Ask for a Caption in the Upload Action

This caption will also flow through to Galleries.

Up until recently you could only allow users to submit a single photo or submit a photo daily. This works well for widget based submissions but is not ideal when you're importing data from #hashtags.
