When adding a new source we fetch some past posts, however, as of now, there's no option to create a historical archive.
Walls.io is designed to collect, moderate, and display fresh social media content as it is published. While we may fetch a small number of recent past posts when you add a new source, we do not support historical imports, and the amount of older content we can retrieve depends on each platform's API limitations.
While we do fetch a handful of past posts when you're adding a new source, the time frame we can look back depends on the particular platform's API & technical limitations. Therefore, we can't provide specifics on how many posts we'll import or how far back into the past we'll go when adding a new source.
How to keep your wall fresh with post shuffle
If your hashtag is experiencing a lull or regular phases of inactivity, try using the shuffle feature: this will move old posts to the top based on two settings:
Time between shuffles defines after how long a period of inactivity older posts will be shuffled to the front as well as the shuffle frequency.
Minimum post recency can be adjusted to define the freshness of content that should be shuffled.
💡 Tip: Even when post shuffle is enabled, brand-new content will still appear immediately at the top of your wall.
To enable it:
1. Open Setup > Behavior.
2. Set Time between shuffles.
3. Set Minimum post recency.
