Social Media Manager automates the scheduling and posting of status updates to major social networks — Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter — directly from SEO Panel. Organise posts into projects, schedule them with a date and time, run them via cron, and track submission results.
Post Manager
Post Manager is where individual social media posts are created and scheduled. Filter posts by website, project, status, keywords and date range.

Connection Manager
Connection Manager handles the OAuth connections between SEO Panel and your social media accounts. Each user can connect their own accounts.

Connecting an Account

Once connected, the account appears in the Connection Manager with status Active and can be used for post submission.
Connection Actions
- Activate / Inactivate – Enable or disable the connection

Submission Reports
Submission Reports shows the result of each post submission attempt. Filter by project, post and status. Each report entry shows the social platform, post title, submission status (Success / Failed) and timestamp.
Social Media Manager
Social Media Manager (admin only) lists the social platforms registered in the plugin (LinkedIn, Twitter, Facebook) and allows admins to activate or inactivate platforms globally.
Cron Command
The Cron Command section (admin only) provides the command to automate post scheduling. Add it to your server crontab to publish scheduled posts without manual triggering.
