Social Auto Poster is a WordPress plugin that automatically shares your posts, pages, and custom content to social networks the moment you publish them. Instead of manually copying links to each platform, the plugin schedules and posts content to Facebook, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, Instagram, Pinterest, and others — including support for scheduled posts, where content goes live on social media at the exact time the post is published. You can customize the message per network, add custom hashtags, exclude specific categories, and reuse or repost old content on a schedule. For publishers managing multiple sites, the plugin includes a central management option, putting it ahead of simple link management tools like ThirstyAffiliates.
