How do I sync my Facebook, MySpace and Twitter accounts with my BandHub?

Everything is much easier if you are already logged into your social network accounts before you do anything, so do this now.

From the Dashboard, under Social Network Status, you will see that the links to Facebook, MySpace and Twitter indicate whether or not they have been synced.

Twitter

  1. Click on the Twitter icon. You will be redirected to a Twitter authorisation page. (Log in if you aren't already..)
  2. Click 'Allow'. (You will be directed back to the BandCentral dashboard).
  3. That's it! You're done. :)

MySpace status updates

  1. Click on the MySpace icon. You will be redirected to a MySpace authorisation page. (Erm, log in if you aren't already..)
  2. Click 'Allow'. (You will be directed back to the BandCentral dashboard.)
  3. And you're done. :)

MySpace gig-syncing

  1. Open up 'Settings' in the main side menu, and click on 'Social Networks'.
  2. Go to 'MySpace Account Settings' and enter in your email and password FOR YOUR MYSPACE LOG-IN (i.e. not your BandCentral log in...).
  3. Click 'Save MySpace Settings'.

(NB: every time you send a gig across from your BandHub to your MySpace page, BandCentral automatically logs into MySpace and posts it for you, using the information you enter here.)

Facebook.

  1. On the dashboard, click on the Facebook icon.
  2. You will be redirected to a page within your BandHub, with clearly spelled-out directions for syncing both status updates and event-listings.

(NB: BandCentral works with a Facebook 'Band Page' - where you have 'likes', rather than 'friends' - and not a personal account. Also, your page must also be public/published and you must be an admin.)


If you ever need to change your social network accounts, then just follow the same steps via 'Settings' and 'Social Networks'. Each button will be rephrased to say 'RE-sync...', etc..

FYI!!! Like every other aspect of BandCentral, all of your information is secure in your BandHub and accessible only by you.

Once you're done, you can jump back to the Dashboard and give it a test run. Note the optional check boxes and the character count for Twitter, and then marvel at how easily three tasks have become one! :)
