Text Templates

Save reusable message snippets and insert them into DMs, Mass Direct Message, and posts. Organize templates into folders, search by title or text, and quickly send a template in an open DM.

What It Does

• Adds a Text Templates menu next to the message box in DMs, Mass Direct Message, and the post composer
• Inserts a saved template at your cursor; DM templates can be quick-sent directly
• Lets you create, edit, delete, and move templates into folders
• Supports optional media attachments saved with a template (DM quick-send only)
• Shows price badges and media counts for templates that include media
• Syncs templates across devices on Pro; Free stores templates locally on your device

Requirements

• FBuddy installed and signed in
• Text Templates enabled in Tweaks (on by default)
• Plan access
  • Pro: use templates in DMs and Mass Direct Message and sync across devices
  • Free: use templates in the post composer; templates are saved locally on the device

Where to Find It

• Toggle: click the FBuddy icon button -> Tweaks -> enable Text Templates
• DMs: in any conversation, click the FBuddy icon button next to the message box and open Text Templates
• Mass Direct Message: inside the send modal, use the FBuddy icon button near the message box and open Text Templates
• Post composer: at the bottom area beside posting actions, click the FBuddy icon button and open Text Templates

Quick Start

1. Enable Text Templates in Tweaks.
2. Open a DM, Mass Direct Message, or the post composer.
3. Click the FBuddy icon button near the text box -> choose Text Templates.
4. Pick a template from the list, or search by title/text. The text inserts at your cursor.
5. Managing templates:
   • In the menu, click Manage Templates.
   • Create a new template: enter a Title and Message text, then save. The template is saved to the folder you're currently viewing in Manage Templates (choose a folder first in the sidebar if needed). You can add media to the template; media sends only when quick-sending in a DM (Pro).
   • Edit or delete existing templates. Move them between folders as needed.
   • Create folders: click the New button in the Folders section sidebar to create a folder for organizing templates.
   • Delete folders: remove folders and all templates contained within them.

Using In Each Place

• DMs (Pro): choose a template and either insert the text or use the quick-send button to send immediately. If the template includes media, you'll be asked to confirm before it sends.
• Mass Direct Message (Pro): templates insert text only. Any media saved on the template is ignored here; attach media from the Mass Direct Message composer if needed.
• Post composer (All plans): templates insert text only.

Media Features

• Media Attachments: Add images, videos, and audio files to templates. Media previews show as thumbnails in the template list.

• Bundle Pricing: Templates with multiple media items show a bundle price in green. Individual media items show their individual prices.

• Media Count: Badges indicate how many media items are included (e.g., "3" for three items, "Bundle" for grouped media).

• Quick Send Media: Media only sends when using the quick-send button in DMs. In other locations, only the text inserts.

Tips & Limits

• Folders help you group related templates (e.g., greetings, follow-ups, promos). Use the folder filter in the menu to narrow the list.
• The search matches both the template title and its text.
• Templates show media count badges (Bundle/Media) and green price badges for paid content.
• If a template shows a price badge, that price applies to the media saved with the template when quick-sent in a DM.
• Attachments saved on a template send only from DMs. In Mass Direct Message and posts, templates insert text only.
• If you set an input translation language for a DM, quick-send translates the template text before sending (Pro only). When translating, template text is limited to 2048 characters.

Troubleshooting

• Don't see the menu: open the FBuddy icon button -> Tweaks and enable Text Templates, then refresh the page.
• Menu is present but disabled in DMs/Mass Direct Message: upgrade to Pro to use templates in those areas.
• Can't find a template: clear the folder filter or use the search field; check Manage Templates to confirm it exists.
• Template includes media but nothing attaches: media sends only from DMs. In Mass Direct Message or posts, the template's text inserts without media.
