Get my FREE 2026 Facebook Ads Masterclass here 👉 https://www.skool.com/theadsclinic/about In this video, we break down a recent change inside Meta Ads Manager that could be causing your Facebook ads to display incorrectly across placements without you even realising it. We walk through the old creative import process, explore the new media upload workflow, and highlight some easy-to-miss settings such as Related Media and Visual Touch-Ups that can impact your results and make creative testing harder to analyse. We also show why designing ads in a 9:16 vertical format is now becoming the best approach for achieving consistent placement coverage across Facebook, Instagram, Reels, Stories, and more, while avoiding cut-off text and poor user experiences. If you're running Facebook ads in 2026, this is an important update that can help improve creative performance and prevent costly mistakes. #facebookads #metaadsupdate #metaads #facebookmarketing #metaadvertising 00:00 - Intro 00:30 - Join my FREE ads community! 01:15 - The old way to import creative 02:54 - The new way 04:08 - Watch out for this mistake 06:00 - Optimising for placements 08:25 - What you should do
