I have a Zap that posts from Wordpress to a private Facebook group when I create a post in WP. It posts successfully. However, within the message body of the post in Facebook, it is not parsing the HTML tags (see attached screenshot). Any suggestions?

 

Thanks!

Hi @ZappBrannigan 

 

You need to convert the HTML to Markdown (I dont think Facebook accepts HTML?) 

 

To do that, you need to use Formatter By Zapier > Text > Convert HTML to Markdown. 

 

Hope this helps :)
