Post a video to watch in Cuts
The video starts in a post; Cuts provides the full-screen viewing experience.
Where to find it: Plus button > post type > media > video > Publish
How to
- Create a post and add a video using the media option.
- Review the video and write a caption that helps explain the clip.
- Mark spoilers when the clip reveals events from a movie or show.
- Publish and open the video to check full-screen playback.
Before posting
- Vertical videos make better use of the screen. Check that text and important people remain visible in the framing.
- Use content you may publish and follow community rules. A video appearing in Cuts does not change your responsibility for the post.
- Specific ad creative limits are described in Ad specifications. They apply to campaigns.
Rules and what happens next
- Cuts uses videos from eligible posts; it does not require creating an ad. An attached video file and an address from another service are different content.
- The duration limit shown in the composer depends on plan and upload flow. Do not apply ad campaign limits to every community video.
- Use authorized media, check sound, framing, caption and spoiler and wait for uploading. Posting does not guarantee immediate inclusion in Cuts discovery.
Common problems
- Video rejected: read duration, format or size notice and select a compatible file. Check Gold if the screen offers extra plan duration.
- Cannot see it in Cuts: check that the post was sent and opens with video. Filters and discovery may not immediately show every post.
