What does “already has an automation” mean?
Already has an automation means the post is occupied by a custom link or another template — one automation per media.
CommentLink allows one automation per post or Reel. If media is already linked — custom or template — it “already has an automation” and cannot take another until freed.
How to free the post
- Custom automation: open Posts & Reels → Unlink
- Template attachment: Detach from the current template, or use Detach / Manage Template on the post
