What's inside

Six moves the extension makes trivial

No page reloads, no copy-paste dance, no second app. Everything below happens in the popup.

activeTab only
Grab

Title, link & images on demand

Hit the icon and the current tab donates its headline, canonical URL and candidate images — pulled the moment you click, never before.

N networks, 1 send
Accounts

Multi-select connected accounts

Tick every network you want in one pass — the same connected accounts your dashboard knows.

now | datetime
Timing

Post now, or schedule it

Ship immediately, or pick a datetime and let it join the queue like any other draft.

posts:write
Security

Scoped token, shown once

The token can write posts and nothing else. You see the full value exactly once — rotate or revoke it from Settings any time.

Self-host

Configurable base URL

Running PostHub on your own box? Point the extension at your deployment — including localhost — and test the link in Options.

One-time wiring

Six stops from Dashboard to a green Test light

The token handshake takes about a minute and you never repeat it — paste once, revoke whenever.

  1. 4

    stop 04 / 06

    Open extension Options

    Right-click the PostHub icon in the toolbar → Options (or the popup’s ⋮ menu).

  2. 5

    stop 05 / 06

    Paste & save

    Paste the token into the token field. Optionally adjust the base URL if you self-host.

  3. 6

    stop 06 / 06

    Test

    Hit Test connection. Green means the deck is wired — go grab a tab.

shown once · revocable anytime

The full token is displayed a single time at generation — we only keep the hash. Rotate it (the old value dies instantly) or revoke it entirely from the same Settings screen, and the extension stops working until you paste the new one.

Straight answers

The questions everyone asks first

No. It ships with every PostHub plan, the 10-day free trial included — no separate licence, no pro tier, no per-share meter. Download the zip once and it keeps working for as long as your workspace is active.
