I have posted my Facebook ad to boost my post with image. First, it was approved but after getting some clicks, the running ad gets unapproved. may I know the possible reason behind that? Also, if I want to edit my Text Image after boosting the approved ad can I do the same?

    Everytime you edit your add it will go into moderation.

    Check the rules, they should also send you an email to why the disapproved your advert.

      Got a mail in which its written Image text limit exceeded. Can I edit the image and continue with the same ad or do I have to Delete it and again create that ad? Is there any option to edit the particular image ?

    The most common reason behind images not being approved in FB ads is because there is too much text in them. Facebook has a pretty strict policy about this so make sure you have the right percentage of text in your images for approval.

    Without seeing your actual ads and images I can only speculate, but I've run into that same issue from time to time. A simple edit and it was ready to go.

    As for your other question, I'm not sure what you mean. Usually you cannot edit a post when it is connected to an ad, you would need to remove the "boost" or the post in general and re-post with your edit.

      So that means I have to delete that post and re-create my Ad? Ghosh!!!
      I got many likes and comments on that post in 5 mins when the ad was live. I will loose them all right?

    You might be using more than 20% of image text. After disapproval you will get a notice why your ad is disapproved.

    Since you need to edit the image itself, you will need to edit the "Creative" inside your ad. This allows you to change what the ad is promoting. Simply post your newly edited image and then edit your Creative to coincide with your new image.

    You will not lose anything from your previous post, but you will need to make a new post with your edited image that is within Facebook's text percentage limit.

      I tried the creative, but nothing is changing. It just telling me that my text ratio is more. I can just select the boxes but can't edit the image.

        You won't be able to edit the image inside Facebook. They do not have any tools for that. You will need to edit your image, create a new post and then resubmit your ad.

        Use this tool to make sure your image meets their requirements - Facebook's Image Tool

          But if I re-post the add with edited image it will loose rankings for sure. And it did, have re-posted the same ad in campaign with changes and all engagement is lost.

    You are creating a new ad. So yes, it is like starting from square one. However, you do not have another option. Facebook sometimes lets ads run for a short amount of time before they are rejected. It says this in the print.

    Since your ad was rejected, any reach or engagement it had, stays on THAT rejected image/ad. You will need to edit your current image or create a new image that meets Facebook's requirements and submit a brand new ad.

    There's nothing more you can do about it. Except, next time make sure to abide by Facebook's requirements so you don't run into this issue.
