Troubleshooting Guide

๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Troubleshooting Guide

Having trouble using Groupie? This guide will help you solve the most common issues related to posting, event scheduling, reminders, group setup, and account access.

โŒ My Post Didn't Send

โœ… Check the following:

  • โ€ขIs Groupie in the group? - Make sure Groupie has been added to the group as a participant.
  • โ€ขIs Groupie an admin? - Groupie must be a group admin to post on your behalf.
  • โ€ขWas the schedule time valid? - If you typed an unclear time (e.g., "soon"), Groupie might skip the post. Try using:
Tomorrow 5pm
Saturday 9:30am

Did you finish the post flow? If you stopped halfway (e.g., didn't reply to "Add a link?"), the post may not have been scheduled.

You can restart with:

Groupie create post <your title>

๐Ÿ•’ My Event Time Is Wrong

โœ… Fix this with your timezone:

Groupie set my timezone to <your timezone>

Examples:

Groupie set my timezone to Africa/Lagos
Groupie set my timezone to America/New_York

Groupie uses this timezone to schedule your posts and events. If it's not set, it defaults to UTC.

๐Ÿ™‹ Groupie Doesn't Recognize My Command

โœ… Try this:

  • โ€ขCheck your spelling - "Groupie create event" vs. "Groupie create events" (no "s")
  • โ€ขUse exact syntax - for example:
Groupie create event for Friday at 6pm: Game Night

You can always type Groupie help to see the full list of supported commands.

๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿคโ€๐Ÿง‘ Groupie Can't Post in My Group

Make sure:

  • โ€ขYou've added Groupie to the group
  • โ€ขGroupie has admin rights
  • โ€ขYou're the group admin initiating the post
  • โ€ขYou selected the correct group when prompted in chat

๐Ÿ” I Didn't Receive My Password

When you register using:

Groupie register <your name>

Groupie replies with a generated password for your dashboard. If you missed it:

  • โœ…Just type the command again
  • โœ…Your existing account will be detected, and your password re-sent

๐Ÿค– AI/Analysis Commands Don't Work

These are only available on the Pro or Business plan.

If you try using:

@Groupie ask how do I plan a trip?
@Groupie analyze this document

...on the free plan, you'll get a message saying AI tools are locked.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Upgrade to Pro

๐Ÿ“‹ My Post or Event Isn't in the Dashboard

  • โ€ขMake sure the post or event was fully scheduled in chat
  • โ€ขCheck if you're logged into the right account (phone number-based)

๐Ÿ” My Reminder Didn't Trigger

Reminders are sent as private messages. If you don't see them:

  • โœ…Make sure you typed the reminder command correctly:
Groupie remind me about tomorrow's event
  • โœ…Confirm you're registered and have the right timezone set.
