Adding a Rich Post to WeChat Menu Items

This article shows you how to place a rich post inside a menu.

When a main menu tab or submenu item is clicked, WeChat followers will be able to view a rich post with topic-specific content.

You can place a rich post inside a main menu tab if it does not have a submenu. If there is a submenu, you can place a rich post inside any submenu item but not the main menu.

Rich Post vs WeChat Article

A rich post and WeChat article are similar in terms of design tools, content options, and overall appearance. Both of them are multimedia messages with headers, text, images, and other content placed inside a vertical page.

The main difference is the delivery method. Rich posts are attached to auto response messages. WeChat articles are published and sent to followers.
