How do I create a post?

To start a post from scratch, select the "+" button on the Home screen. 


Mobile:

You will be directed to the Create A Post step, where you can select your post size, as well as add photos, video and text to be included in your post.


Web: 

You will be taken directly to the Customize step, where you can edit your post.


Post Size:

You can share a square (1:1), vertical (9:16), or landscape (16:9) post with Ripl. You can select your post size by tapping the three dots above your keyboard, then selecting the post size above the keyboard on the right side. We recommend using vertical posts for Instagram Stories and Facebook Stories, landscape posts for Facebook Cover Videos, YouTube and LinkedIn, and square for Instagram Feed, as well as for sharing across more than one platform. 


Adding Photos or Video:

You can add media to your post from your camera roll, Dropbox, Google Drive, or My Files app, or search for media files on Shutterstock from within the Ripl app by tapping Add Photos or Video.


Adding A Website (Mobile only): 

If you want to start a post with a website, check out this article about using the Create Post From A Webpage field.


Once you've picked your post type, and size, and added text and/or photos, tap the ">" in the upper right corner to proceed to the Customize screen, where you can customize your post. 


Something to keep in mind: The Create A Post step is only available on mobile. For the web app, adding media, text and selecting post size is available on the Customize step.
