General Settings and Advanced settings

General settings are the settings by default, if you set them, they will work for all social networks, which we use.

If you want to change the settings (to be different from General Settings) for only one social networks, then you use advanced settings.

Filter Configuration

The filter configuration should work for both functionalities

Filter: Austrian: Zerohedge

Exclude Category Zerohedge on Austrian

attention: Include, exclude

It is said “exclude Zerohedge”. The tags field is empty. Unfortunately, here we have bug with Zerohedge and excluding categories.

Show all categories on snbchf

you must show categories not posts

The category menu is different and it is empty.

Test the configuration

Submit to Twitter

After configuration change, submit to twitter

This only sends a test post, this needs to be improved for testing the filters.

New Task: Improve test post, so that it 

• sends a real post
• applies to rules (categories, tags)

Tweet old content

Old Config:

Snbchf: 5 days (many FX posts, old FX posts are not interesting)

Austrian: 90 days (a lot of theory, less economic data)

Central-Banks: 30 days (a lot of economic data, not interesting after 30 days)

Heterodox: 90 days (a lot of theory, less eco data, less posts)

Leaders: 60 days

Macro: 25 days (macro is essentially economic data, which is not interesting after 20 days)

Swiss: 90 days (less ecodata, except snbchf)

New Config

Snbchf: 10 days, all categories

Austrian: 90 days (a lot of theory, less economic data) –> Reduce to 30 days, tweet more often

Central-Banks: 30 days

Heterodox: 90 days (a lot of theory, less eco data, less posts) –> Reduce to 30 day, every 30 min

Leaders: 60 days –> Reduce to 20 days, increase tweet speed by 2

Macro: 25 days (macro is essentially economic data, which is not interesting after 20 days) –> Reduce to 15 days, increase tweet speed by 2

Swiss: 90 days (less ecodata, except snbchf) –> Reduce to 30 days, increase tweet speed

Remove retweets from twitter account

In Summer 2017, the social auto poster was tweeting old posts from 2015 and
George Dorgan retweeted them.
To avoid bad reputation the team had to remove the retweets.
