The Create Video Post tool lets you upload one video and publish it across TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and more at once, along with a shared caption and title. This tutorial covers picking your platforms, uploading the video, setting platform-specific options like TikTok's requirements, and publishing or scheduling the post.
Go to Create Video Post
Open SoMePoster and click Create Video Post from the left menu.
Select the Platforms You Want to Post To
At the top of the Create Video Post page, choose the platforms where you want to publish video.
SoMePoster supports video posting to:
- TikTok
- YouTube
- X / Twitter
- Bluesky
- WordPress
- WordPress.com
Select the Correct Account for Each Platform
After selecting platforms, choose the account, page, profile, blog, site, board, or audience for each one.
Examples:
- For TikTok, select the TikTok account.
- For Facebook, select the Facebook Page.
- For Instagram, select the Instagram account.
- For YouTube, select the YouTube channel.
- For X / Twitter, select the X account.
- For LinkedIn, select the LinkedIn profile or company page.
- For Pinterest, select the Pinterest account.
- For Bluesky, select the Bluesky account.
- For WordPress, select the connected WordPress site.
- For WordPress.com, select the WordPress.com site.
- For Webflow, select the Webflow site/CMS collection.
If a platform needs an extra selection, choose it before posting. Examples: Pinterest needs a board, WordPress.com needs a site, WordPress needs a connected site, Webflow needs a CMS collection, and Facebook needs a page.
Write Your Video Post Content
Now write your post in the editor. The content can include normal text, paragraphs, lists, and links.
The title is created automatically from the first line of your content. For example, if the first line is "How to improve your SEO strategy," SoMePoster will use that as the title for platforms that need a title, such as Blogger, WordPress, Webflow, Shopify, Ghost, DEV.to, Mailchimp, and Pinterest.
Check the Automatic Title
SoMePoster fills the title automatically from the first line, but you can edit it if needed. This is useful if you want the blog title to be different from the social media caption.
Upload Your Video
Click the video upload area and select a video from your computer. Wait until the upload is complete before publishing. SoMePoster will check the video size and duration based on the selected platforms.
Before you publish: WordPress.com free plans usually do not allow video uploads. Choose a paid/video-enabled site or the publish may fail.
Complete TikTok Options (If Selected)
If you selected TikTok, complete the TikTok options before posting. These may include: privacy status, allow comments, allow duet, allow stitch, commercial content settings, AI-generated content setting, and the required consent checkbox.
SoMePoster will show a message if any required TikTok option is missing.
Optional: Edit Content Per Platform
If you want different text for different platforms, turn on Edit content per platform. This lets you write separate content for each platform.
For example: short text for X, more detailed text for LinkedIn, a video title for YouTube, hashtags for TikTok or Instagram, blog-style content for WordPress, or a different title for Pinterest. If you do not turn this on, the same content will be used for all selected platforms.
Optional: Choose Free or Paid for X
If you are posting to X / Twitter, choose whether the account is Free or Paid. This matters because X has different character limits: Free accounts use the shorter limit, and Paid accounts can use longer posts. SoMePoster uses this setting to split or trim the content correctly.
Optional: Use Saved Selections
If you often post to the same platforms and accounts, once you select your accounts and their sub-accounts, click Save Selection.
A modal will open. Enter a name for the selection, then click Save Selection.
Next time, choose it from the saved selection dropdown and SoMePoster will load the same platforms, accounts, pages, boards, blogs, sites, and audiences. If you change the selected platforms or accounts, click Update Selection to save the changes.
If you reconnect an account, quickly check the saved selection before posting — if anything is missing, select it again and click Update Selection.
Choose Post Now or Schedule
Choose how you want to publish: Post Now publishes immediately, and Schedule lets you choose a future date and time. If you schedule the post, choose the correct date and time before continuing.
When everything is ready, click Publish. SoMePoster will queue the post and start publishing to the selected platforms.
Check the Result in My Posts
After posting, go to My Posts.
There you can see each platform separately with its status: Published, Pending, Processing, Failed, or Scheduled. You can also copy final post URLs when the platform returns them.
If a platform fails, SoMePoster shows the reason beside that platform. Common causes are missing permissions, a disconnected account, an invalid board/blog/site/page, rejected media, an API that was temporarily unavailable, content that was too long, or a required title/image that was missing. After fixing it, you can publish again.
