Kapost Updates: Twitter Integration and Required Fields

2 minute read

Upland Admin

We have a new release with two new features that we’re excited to launch.

The first is: Twitter Integration

You can now tweet out about a post that has been written in Kapost, directly from Kapost.

Once you connect a Twitter account to your Kapost newsroom, there will be a Twitter area on the Post page.

This will allow your writers to write the tweets instead of the Editors.  You can then tweet out from your post page at any time.  If your post is published, you simply need to add: “[URL]” in your tweet and we’ll place the published post’s URL in there for you.

This is the first release of this feature. That said, we have have more features around this coming soon and if you have any suggestions, let us know.

The second feature is Required Fields

As you know, you can make certain fields such as categories and custom fields required for users to enter before they can submit a post and/or publish it. Previously, if these weren’t completed, a user wasn’t allows to submit, assign or publish a post.

We’ve updated this where the notification of a missing required field is now a better looking popup.  Also, you have the option to continue to submit even if you don’t want to add the required field. This makes the service more flexible. This is an important feature update to provide to your writing and editorial team, and of course, if you have questions let us know.

We’ve also released a few small updates:

  • If you fail to hit “done” in the category, tags, payment or date modules when you submit a post, we’ll close it for you and save the changes you made.
  • The shortened YouTube URL now works when inserting a YouTube video
  • The photo alignment in the Editor now works correctly
  • Some more fields have been added to the Payment CSV.

Reliable products. Real results.
