The post cannot be published because it contains a link that violates the social network's community standards.

Social networks review the content of posts to ensure they comply with their rules. A post will be rejected if a link in a post violates community standards or the platform's security policy.

Possible reasons

  1. The link leads to a site blacklisted by the social network.
  2. The link leads to a resource with potentially harmful content.
  3. The link contains materials that violate copyright.
  4. The link leads to a site with prohibited content (scams, gambling, counterfeit goods, etc.).
  5. The link domain has previously been associated with spam activity.

What to do?

  1. Check the link for compliance. Make sure the link does not lead to sites with prohibited content. Read the platform's community guidelines.

  2. Check the domain's reputation. Use domain reputation checking services to ensure it isn't flagged as malicious.

  3. Replace the link. If the issue persists, replace the link with an alternative resource with similar content.

  4. Contact platform support. If you are sure the link doesn't violate the rules, contact support to determine the reason for the blocking.

Important to remember

Each platform has its own rules regarding published links. Typically, links to malware, phishing sites, illegal content, gambling, and other prohibited materials are blocked.

Platform rules are updated regularly, so it is recommended to periodically check the current requirements for the content you publish.
