Retry and unpublish
A retry only re-sends the platforms that failed, so it can never double-post, and it reuses the media from the first attempt. Unpublish deletes the live copy on platforms that allow it; Instagram, TikTok and Threads require removing a post in their own apps.
Retry & unpublish
What happens after a post goes out: retrying a failure, and taking a live post down.
Retrying a failed post
- Only the platforms that failed are retried: anything that already went out stays untouched, so a retry can never double-post.
- Your image or video isn't re-uploaded: the retry reuses the media from the original attempt.
- Temporary failures (rate limits, platform hiccups, daily caps) retry on their own. The post card says so when they will. Hit Retry publish any time to retry immediately.
Unpublishing a live post
Unpublish (on the post card's menu) deletes the live copy from the platform. The post itself stays in Zolyp, ready to edit or re-send. Platforms that allow it:
Instagram, TikTok and Threads don't allow deleting a published post from outside their apps. Remove those in the app itself.
Common questions
Can retrying a post publish it twice?
No. A retry only re-sends the platforms that failed. Anything that already went out is left alone.
Does unpublishing delete the post from Zolyp?
No. Unpublish removes the live copy from the platform, and the post stays in Zolyp, ready to edit or send again.
Is my image or video uploaded again on a retry?
No. A retry reuses the media from the original attempt, so it's quick and doesn't use credits.
Which platforms can't be unpublished from Zolyp?
Instagram, TikTok and Threads don't allow deleting a published post from outside their apps, so remove those posts in the app itself.
