Why is my post already linked?
Each post or Reel can have only one automation. Unlink a custom automation or Detach from Template before linking something new.
CommentLink allows one automation per post/Reel — either a custom link or an Automation Template attachment.
If it doesn't work
Cannot attach a template to this post
- Why it happens
- Media already has a custom automation or another template (`media_occupied`).
- How to check
- Posts & Reels Link filter; template eligible-media tip; Post Detail link state.
- How to fix
- Unlink the custom automation or Detach from Template, then attach/link again.
Post Detail already shows a linked automation
- Why it happens
- You previously Saved an automation on this media.
- How to check
- Post Detail Unlink / Manage Template actions.
- How to fix
- Edit the existing automation, or Unlink/Detach before creating a different one.
