Facebook Page replies

Questions under your posts deserve a public answer.

Use this recipe when Page visitors repeatedly ask whether the venue is open.

A public keyword reply points to your current hours and location details.

Include exceptions on a maintained page and distinguish opening hours from your team’s response hours.

The answer should make a visit easier to plan without claiming an appointment or reservation is confirmed.

Recipe in 3 steps

Swap in your details, then test.

Replace the sample copy and links, then test the supported journey in your own account.

  1. Check the hours source

    Review normal hours, location, and upcoming exceptions. Make sure the destination is current and accessible.

  2. Choose relevant comment words

    Use HOURS or an appropriate opening-time word on the intended Page posts. Test ambiguous questions before applying the reply broadly.

  3. Test in the thread

    Leave a realistic opening-hours comment and inspect the public answer. Confirm it does not answer an unrelated ‘open order’ or support question.

Why it helps

Built for comment sections people read.

Public answers that help the person who asked and everyone else reading the thread.

  1. Practical details remain visible

    Other readers can use the same hours answer. Choose a destination that clearly names the venue and location.

  2. Holiday changes have one home

    Keep closures and special-event hours updated on the linked page instead of leaving an old schedule in many replies.

Supported channels

Where this works

Linkar connects to Instagram professional accounts and Facebook Pages. What an automation can do depends on the channel and the account you connect.

Before you switch it on

Schedule the information review

Update your source before holidays rather than after someone arrives at a closed venue. Scope the campaign where appropriate and test common wording from your actual Page comments. Keep reservation enquiries directed to the real booking process.

Campaign notes

Write for a public Facebook thread

  • Linkar’s Facebook Page comment automations post public replies. They should not be described as Messenger chatbots or private DM journeys. Use wording that makes sense to other readers, choose relevant keywords or selected posts, and keep account-specific details out of the response. Never ask people to post private contact or payment information under a comment.

  • Test a matching question and an unrelated comment in the actual thread. Point to a maintained destination when details can change, and use your real private support process for individual issues. An automatic acknowledgement does not prove a support ticket exists, a giveaway entry is eligible, or a purchase has been completed.

Does this work in Facebook Messenger?

This Linkar recipe posts a public Page comment reply. It is not a Messenger conversation flow. Use public wording and avoid asking for personal details under the comment.

Can I try Linkar for free?

Yes. Start with 5 automations and 1,000 messages per month on the free plan. Features and limits depend on the plan and connected account. Compare the current plans before choosing a larger setup.
