As of 1st of August 2018, Facebook have changed their policy regarding automatic posts / announcements from apps like GigaTools to people’s Facebook Pages & Profile.

This change in Facebook’s policy has effected thousands of Apps including ours.

As a result of these policy changes, automatic posts from GigaTools to Facebook Pages & Profiles are currently disabled.

We are examining the new Facebook policy and will determine if we can offer the same automatic posting of Gigs to people’s Facebook pages in the near future. thank you for your patience.

As of 1st May 2015, Facebook implemented changes to their policy which relate to how Apps like GigaTools can post on your behalf to your Facebook profile and pages.

In the past, GigaTools could post a short message to your Facebook profile or pages regarding any Gigs you had that day, as well as a message announcing any new Gigs you had added to your schedule.

Now, instead of posting a message regarding a specific Gig, GigaTools will post a link. The link GigaTools posts will be either the link you added when you first created the Gig to your schedule or a link to the Gig on the public GigaTools Gigs Listing site.

The good news with this update is that if your Gigs have a flyer or artwork that you have uploaded to the GigaTools site, this image will be posted to Facebook (as shown below)

When announcing New Gigs, GigaTools will also post a link to your complete Gigs listing Page on the public GigaTools Gigs Listing site, rather than the short announcement you would have seen before May 1st.

To take advantage of these new features, please reconnect your GigaTools User or Group to a Facebook Profile.

Thank you.

Soundcloud recently made a change to their website which alters the way URLS (web links) are displayed on their site so we have updated the GigaTools Gigs listings on Soundcloud profiles to fit in with this change. Now, your Soundcloud Gigs listings will only include a link to your complete GigaTools Gigs listing page instead of linking each of your Gigs to any websites you may have linked them to.

GigaTools users do not need to change their profiles at all and it is safe to continue connecting your GigaTools Gigs to your Soundcloud profile.

Here is what the new Gigs listing looks like

If you want to list your Gigs on a tab on one or more of your Facebook Pages, follow these instructions:

Be sure that you are logged into Facebook as the owner of the Facebook Page you want to list your Gigs on.

Log into GigaTools and hit EDIT USER or EDIT GROUP for the User or Group whose Gigs you want to list.

On the right hand side of the page, follow the link to MANAGE Facebook • App (as shown in the image)

Scroll down the page until you see the installation instructions. click the CLICK HERE link to install the App on your Facebook Page (shown in image)

Clicking that link will take you to Facebook and present you with a dialog box asking if you want to install the GigaTools Upcoming Gigs App on your Facebook Page. Be sure to choose the correct Facebook page if you have more than one. Click the blue ‘Add Upcoming Gigs’ link.

After doing this you should be returned to the GigaTools site to complete the installation. If you have more than one User or Group you will be asked to choose which User or Group you want to install the App on.

Once you’re back on the MANAGE Facebook • App page you will be asked for your Facebook Page ID which you can find by clicking on the GIGS tab that you just installed on your Facebook Page

Copy this Page ID and paste it into the form on the MANAGE Facebook • App page on GigaTools (shown)

Hit Save and then refresh your GIGS tab on Facebook and you should see your Upcoming Gigs listing!

We’ve just added a handy new feature that allows you to share confidential information about each of your Gigs via your Gigs feeds in Apple iCal, Google Calendar, XML, JSON & RSS formats.

Simply add the information when editing your Gigs and then share this privately via the new Private Feed URLs. You can reset these URLs at anytime to revoke access to anyone you may have shared your feeds with.

This information will only be visible via these Private Feed URLs.

Step 1 : Add some info in the Private Info window on the Gig form

Step 2 : Share via your Private Feed URL
