Toggle on the button Make a thread.
To delay the first post of the thread, enable Add a delay, and specify it.
To continue adding posts to the thread, click the small + icon below the comment: Add another reply.
If you enable Add a delay then you can decide when the second post of the thread will be posted, based on the previous post.
To add media, simply click on Click to upload media and choose the media you want to add.
Once you have finished creating the follow-up comments and your thread is ready, simply click on Save and proceed with scheduling the post accordingly.
You can also preview what the Bluesky thread will look like when it's posted.
NOTE: Threads and follow-up comments do NOT carry over automatically when reusing posts from saved drafts, scheduled content, or previously published posts. Therefore, you will need to manually add them each time.
Keep in mind:
You can add up to 25 posts in a Bluesky thread.
You can specify the language of the Bluesky post (optional).
Each follow-up comment/reply is customizable with text formatting tools, emojis, hashtag suggestions, and media files.
Each follow-up reply will have a 300 character limit. Publer will notify you by highlighting the text that's surpassed the limit.
Each follow-up reply will get shared after the previous one. For example, you can't schedule the third reply of a thread to be posted before the second one.
