Scanned items

Scanned items are every post your Ghost read during a scan, with the reason each one was kept or left out. Use them to work out why a Ghost is missing posts you want.

Open a scan’s scanned items

Use Showing to narrow the list to included posts, excluded posts or a single reason.

Why a post was excluded

Reason	What it means	What you can do
Ghost’s decision	Your Ghost thought it wasn’t a good fit for your goal and Match threshold.	Make the goal clearer, or lower the Match threshold.
No common text	The post didn’t have enough in common with your website, based on your Match threshold.	Check your business details and rescan your website with Redo company scan in Settings› then Business info.
Failed similarity filter	It had too much in common with Finds you rated badly, compared with ones you rated well.	Review your ratings. See Rating Finds.
Max finds reached	The scan had already reached your Max Finds per scan.	Raise the cap, or set it to 0 for unlimited.
Already found	A previous scan already found it.	Nothing. It is in your Finds.
Blocked contact	It is from a contact you blocked.	Unblock the contact if you want their posts. See Contacts.
From yourself	It came from your own account.	Nothing.
Unsupported item type	It is a kind of post PitchGhost doesn’t support.	Nothing.
No text found	There was no text to analyze.	Nothing.
Failed to create	Something went wrong creating the Find.	Use Make a Find to try again.

A post that never shows up in scanned items was never fetched. That points at your search queries, not your goal.

Turn an excluded post into a Find

The post now appears in your Finds. Rate it so your Ghost keeps posts like it next time. See Rating Finds.

Delete or cancel scans

In the Scans list, select one or more scans and open the Actions menu.

Delete scan removes the selected scans and can’t be undone. The Finds and contacts those scans created stay. Cancel scan appears when you select a single scan that is still running.
