Once you have accessed the Postmedia Welcome Guide (via the link sent to you), you should see a Connect button beside the location you would like to connect your Facebook Page to.
STEP 1
Click Connect in the Facebook column beside the location you want to connect will bring you to a new page where you can grant Postmedia access to your Facebook page.
STEP 2
Verify your permissions: In order to grant Postmedia access, you need the proper Facebook permissions.
If you have access to your Facebook page, click Yes, I am the admin and continue to STEP 3.
If you are NOT the admin of your Facebook page, click No, someone else is the admin. Doing so will allow you to send a connection request to your Facebook admin, with a new temporary 10 day access to the Welcome Guide, so they can onboard your Facebook page on your behalf. The admin on your Postmedia account will receive a success email whenever a new connection has been made.
STEP 3
During the “Connect Page” step, you will be redirected to another page to sign in with your Facebook account login. There is a slideshow in this step to show you what you need to do. You can also view each step below.
Click Connect Page to start the connection process.
Slideshow breakdown:
- Click Start to trigger sign in with Facebook.
- Login to the Facebook account that has access to your Facebook business page.
- Once logged in, the page will show all accounts listed. Click Confirm on the one you would like to connect.
- You are linked! Go back to the Welcome Guide to confirm your Facebook connection.
STEP 4
Once you have connected your page, you must come back to the Postmedia Welcome Guide to confirm.
Click Confirm Facebook Access to verify.
If clicking Confirm Facebook Access returns an error, repeat the previous step to verify that you connected your Facebook page correctly.
If everything is set up properly, you will get confirmation and be redirected back to the Dashboard page inside the Welcome Guide where you can continue to connect other accounts.
