Cross-Posting Fieldset
When editing an article in Joomla, you will see a Cross-Posting fieldset. This contains:
Skip Cross-Posting
Toggle to Yes to prevent the article from being cross-posted to any service.
Service Selection
Checkboxes for all published services. By default all services are selected. Check specific services to limit cross-posting.
When Does Cross-Posting Happen?
- An article is published (state changes to published).
- An article is saved while already published (only if not previously cross-posted — a duplicate guard prevents re-posting).
Unpublishing or trashing does not trigger cross-posting or remove existing posts from external platforms.
Practical Examples
- Internal or policy pages — set Skip Cross-Posting to Yes so administrative content never reaches social channels.
- Audience-specific news — select only the services that match the audience for that article.
- Announcements — leave all services selected for maximum reach.
Tips
- Decide before you publish. Because the duplicate guard prevents re-posting, set your per-article choices before the article first goes live.
- Give articles a strong intro image and intro text — these are what most platforms display in the shared preview.
- Review the Activity Logs after publishing to confirm each selected service received the post.
