Resolve a channel warning

Understand a channel warning and fix the version or media before approval.

Read the warning beside a channel in Compose and correct the copy or media it identifies. A mark applies to that channel’s version.

Compose marking the Threads chip: 840 characters, and it takes at most 500, with Versions open beside the post

Read the reason beside the channel

A mark means the selected copy or media does not meet a check SME knows for that channel. The app can check text length and known media needs. It may show a character count against a limit, require media or explain that the selected file cannot be used. A warning is specific to that channel; the same copy can still be ready for another one.

  1. In Compose, select the marked channel chip.
  2. Read the reason shown for that channel.
  3. Open Versions and adjust its copy if the text is too long or unsupported.
  4. Replace or add media if that is the stated problem.
  5. Return to the channel and confirm the warning is cleared before submitting or approving.

Know what the mark does not mean

A clear channel check means the known app rules pass; the platform can still refuse a post for a reason SME cannot predict. That refusal appears later as a publishing problem. The warning does not make a change by itself, and a channel-specific version is not created unless you change it or choose Rewrite with AI.
