Copy each new tweet from an X user, replacing specific words only if the tweet contains an image or video

Automagically copy any new posts from an X (Twitter) user, update the words just as you wish—but only if they share images or videos. Make your brand (and your feed) smarter in minutes.

  • Execute the task periodically
  • Get the next new post from a user (twitter → tweets_from_user)
  • Search and Replace text (plugin_strings → preg_replace)
  • Publish a post (twitter → update_with_media)

Manually tracking and reposting every tweet with images or videos from a specific X (Twitter) user—while also ensuring certain words are edited each time—quickly becomes a soul-crushing drain on your schedule. Each minute you spend scanning, copying, editing, and reposting is time not spent on strategy, creative tasks, or audience engagement. Letting this task slip eats into your social media momentum, causing missed opportunities for timely engagement and reducing the consistency and reach that drives real visibility for your brand.

This Botize formula solves it all by automatically monitoring your chosen X account for new tweets containing images or videos. When it spots relevant posts, it instantly processes the tweet’s text—searching for and swapping out customized words or phrases according to your presets—before posting the refined content to your X profile. This hands-off workflow transforms your feed from sporadic and error-prone to polished and reliably branded, freeing up hours each week while maintaining full creative control on what gets posted and how it's phrased.

Jump in and see how this automation works step by step—customizing rules like word replacements, monitored users, and posting frequency to fit your needs perfectly. Everything is ready for you on Botize, so you can activate or tweak the formula and start saving hours right away. Give your impact and efficiency a boost—let's get started!

Superpower Every X Tweet—Only the Ones With Images or Videos

How does it work? Simple: Every time your chosen X user posts, our system checks if there’s a photo or a video. If there is, it scans the text for specific words and swaps them with your custom choices. For example, 'twitter' becomes 'X'—but ONLY in image or video posts, so your automation feels human, not robotic.

This task monitors a specific X (Twitter) user and copies each new tweet they publish. Before copying the tweet, the text is processed using search-and-replace rules so that certain words or fragments can be automatically modified, but only if the original post contains an image or video. To use this task, you must customize the words or text fragments you want to replace. By default, the example configuration replaces the word “twitter” with “X” if it appears in the tweets being copied.
