What are signatures?
Signatures are reusable text blocks you can append to a post with one click — hashtag sets, a link to your newsletter, a call-to-action, anything you’d otherwise retype every time. Create a signature once and reuse it across posts.
Creating a signature
Go to Signatures in the sidebar or use the API:
| Field | Required | Description |
|---|
| Name | Yes | A descriptive name (e.g., “SaaS hashtags”, “Newsletter CTA”, “Product launch”) |
| Content | Yes | The text appended to the post (e.g., #saas #marketing #growth or 🔗 Subscribe: trypost.it/news) |
Keep one signature per intent — one for hashtags, one for the newsletter CTA, one for the conference plug. You can apply more than one to the same post.
Using signatures
When composing a post, click the signatures icon to see your list. Click any signature to append its content to the post.
You can apply multiple signatures to a single post — they’re appended in the order you click them.
Managing signatures
- Edit — Update the name or content at any time. Existing posts that already inserted the signature aren’t affected — the text was copied at insertion time.
- Delete — Remove a signature you no longer need. Existing posts are not affected.
Best practices
- One intent per signature — A hashtag pack and a newsletter CTA belong in separate signatures so you can mix and match.
- Platform awareness — LinkedIn performs well with 3–5 hashtags, X with 1–2, Instagram with up to 30. Consider creating platform-specific signatures.
- Refresh regularly — Trending tags and CTAs change. Review your signatures periodically.
Via the API
Manage signatures programmatically:
