There always seems to be some confusion about the correct way to do this, so I’m thinking this is a good one to have over here. This would be a helpful post to send to anyone who is new to Triberr.
First, you will need to go to your Tribal Stream. This is found by clicking on Home on the blue navigation bar.
Once you do that, you should be looking at something similar to this:
I have some post that are approved already but here is one that is not. A post that has not been approved will look like this:
As you can see the button is yellow/orange. This indicates that it has not been approved. You just need to click on that button and it will turn blue.
That’s really all there is to it. Now, Triberr will send those tweets out in increments of 20 minutes or more (you can change the settings in Content Settings if you want a longer time between tweets, but be careful – tweets can back up if you do more than about 45 minutes to 1 hour or so, depending on # of tribemates and how frequently they post)
You’re all done.
But let’s say you want to be nice to your tribemate and share the post further.
On the right side, there is a ‘more sharing options’. Go ahead and click that and you will see more options.
Like this. Now you can see you can stumble the post, like it or +1 it. There is also an additional tweet option here. If you have already clicked approve on the post, you should not tweet it again with that button, it will cancel out the approval. So ignore that unless you really want to send the post out right that very moment – it is immediate.
When you are finished sharing the post with other social media sites, simply click the link that says ‘Mark as Shared’ and you’re done. Your post will still go out at the scheduled time.
NOTE: There is NEVER any reason to use the X button in the upper right hand corner while you are approving. If you decide to use that, you are stating that you are not going to ever share that post. It is a delete button and once you’ve clicked it, the post is gone forever. You do not need to use it for ANY reason unless you are not going to share your tribemates post at all.
Please let us know if there is something you’d like to be shown how to do.

Hi there,
I’ve just subscribed to Triberr and I think I’ve set everything up just fine, the only thing I find weird is that my own posts are showing up in my home stream and I can approve them as well.
Is this normal?
Thanks!
Hi Sofie, So glad you got everything set up fine.
It is perfectly normal to have your own posts going. Typically we are sharing our own posts on social media, so having them in your stream allows you to choose when you send your own posts through. Hope that helps, and welcome to Triberr.
Got it, thanks!
I use Houtsuite to schedule my own posts, so won’t be needing to send them through Triberr
