What to do when a post fails
A post can fail for two different reasons, and Dripost treats them differently on purpose.
Checked against the product on 2026-09-21.
Find it
Failed posts stay on the calendar, drawn in red. Click one to open its detail. It lists each network, what happened there, and the reason.
If the network refused it
The network said no, for example because the post was too long or an image was missing. Nothing was posted. Fix the cause, then choose Retry. Only the networks that refused are tried again; any that already published are left alone.
If it says 'needs checking'
We sent the post but never got an answer, so we cannot tell whether it landed. Sending it again could post it twice, so we do not guess.
Open the network and look. If the post is there, choose 'It's there'. If it is not, choose 'It's not there, send again' and Dripost will schedule it for the next minute.
Why it works this way
A retry that is safe when a network refuses a post is unsafe when the answer was lost. Keeping the two apart is how a post goes out at most once.
