Topic: Advanced posting to Twitter (X) on paid plans

Does anyone know if Advanced posting to Twitter (X) still works on the paid for plans?

The website states it is included, but earlier this year, their api stopped after Elon Musk made changes to it.

I instituted a support ticket last week and their response, was NO, unfortunately not available.  Their response also indicated that they are working on a solution.  I currently have the PRO Plan.

Thanks.

I suspected this would be the case, and they are falsely advertising this feature which they know hasn't worked for a number of months.

How did you set up the auto posting?

Sorry for the belated reply.

I process a file with webtags to create the line I want to be posted in  mastadon.  I then use "toot"  a mastadib CLI client to post the file to my mastodon account.  i also use one to post forecasts too.  all using cronjobs from my weather station that's running Ubuntu.
