Tailwind's Browser Extension makes it easy to schedule and publish content from across the web!

  • Post Often: Find and schedule multiple images from any website via the toolbar button.

  • Post Quickly: Easily schedule any image by clicking the "Schedule" button when hovering over large images.

Ready to start scheduling across the web? We've included step-by-step instructions below on how to install the extension in your browser, as well as how to remove it.

Helpful Tip: Tailwind does not support Internet Explorer or Opera.

How to Install the Extension

Chrome or Microsoft Edge

Find our Chrome Extension in Google Chrome's Web Store. Select the Add to Chrome button, and then select Add Extension in the authorization pop-up:

Helpful tip: If you’re using Microsoft Edge, it will also support the Google Chrome version of the extension, which you can download from the Chrome store.

Safari (macOS)

Visit the Mac App Store and search for Tailwind Publisher. You can also use this link.

Click Get, then Install:

Select Open once the extension has been installed in your browser. You will be asked to open Safari Extension Preferences to complete installation:

Check the box next to Tailwind Publisher and select the website permissions:

Helpful Tip: The extension works best if you select Always Allow on Every Website. Our Safari extension also requires macOS 10.13 or later.

Firefox

Find our Firefox Add-on in Mozilla's official site for add-ons to Mozilla software. Select the Add to Firefox button, then select Add on the authorization pop-up that appears:

How to Remove the Extension

Having trouble using the extension? If so, removing it and installing a new version is always the best first step!

Chrome

Visit your Extension Manager page in your Chrome browser.

Find the Tailwind extension and select Remove, then confirm by clicking the second Remove button:

You can also remove the extension by right-clicking the extension shortcut in the toolbar, then selecting Remove from Chrome:

Firefox

Go to your Firefox Add-Ons Menu (located in Firefox's Preferences and Settings).

Find Tailwind Publisher, click the drop-down menu and click the Remove button to remove the extension from your browser.

You can also right-click the extension icon in your toolbar and click Remove Extension:

Safari

Go to your Safari Extensions Menu (located in Safari's Preferences and Settings).

Find Tailwind Publisher and click the Uninstall button to remove the extension from your browser.

Ghostwriter Extension vs. Scheduling Images

Sorry for the confusion regarding our browser extension! We have recently introduced our new Ghostwriter Labs feature, so you now have two options when using the browser extension!

You can choose to have the browser extension button open the publisher or the Ghostwriter tool.

If you are looking to schedule images from the Tailwind extension, you will first want to make sure you are updated to the newest extension version 4.4.3. Then, when opening the extension, you should see the screen shown below. From here, you will click 'Reenable the classic experience'

Once clicking this, you will make sure that the settings default to 'Schedule Images'

You can also view these settings by visiting: https://www.tailwindapp.com/dashboard/v2/popup/settings/extension/

From here, you will need to close out of the window pop-up. Once you re-open the extension, you should see the option to schedule images. Please note: you may need to wait up to 10 seconds for it to load.
