Migration Guide

Switching from a general-purpose automation tool to a dedicated RSS-to-social platform like PostRSS is mostly a sequencing problem, not a technical one. This tag covers practical, step-by-step guides for moving an existing auto-posting setup — feeds, targets, and destination accounts — from one tool to another without creating duplicate posts or gaps in a publishing schedule. Articles here focus on the operational checklist: what to disable first, how to handle a feed's existing backlog of items, and what to watch for during the first posting cycle after cutover. The one step people skip is disabling the old tool first, which is what produces duplicate posts on the first cycle. A feed's existing backlog is the other surprise, since only items appearing after a Target starts running are published.
