Styling & Publishing Feeds

Auto-refresh Settings

Curator automatically pulls new content from your connected social media sources based on your plan's refresh interval. This keeps your feed current without manual updates.

Refresh Intervals by Plan

Your plan determines how often Curator checks for new content:

  • Free: Every 24 hours

  • Pro: Every 60 minutes

  • Business: Every 15 minutes

  • Event: Every 5 minutes

The refresh interval countdown begins when you add a source or reactivate a paused source.

Higher-tier plans offer faster refresh rates, making them ideal for live events or rapidly updating content like breaking news or event hashtags.

How Auto-refresh Works

Curator's servers check your connected sources at the scheduled interval and pull in new posts automatically. Once pulled, new content appears in your public feed after passing your moderation settings.

The refresh happens server-side, so your website visitors don't experience any delays or loading disruptions.

Manual Refresh

At the moment, there isn’t an option to manually trigger a refresh for your sources.

For Event plan users, the 5-minute refresh is designed for digital signage and TV displays where content must stay current.

Moderation and Refresh

New posts pulled during auto-refresh respect your moderation settings:

  • Auto-approve: New posts appear immediately in your public feed

  • Manual approval: New posts wait in your moderation queue until you approve them

  • Filters active: Posts matching filter rules are hidden or flagged

Troubleshooting Refresh Issues

If your feed isn't updating:

  • Double-check that your source status is active and not currently paused

  • Check that the refresh interval has passed since the last update

  • Verify the connected account has posted new content

  • Ensure the source connection is still active (reconnect if needed)
