misposting

Sent somewhere incorrect

Misposting is putting something in the wrong place online—sending a message to the wrong chat, publishing to the wrong account, or uploading content to an unintended platform.

The term appears mostly in social media contexts: I misposted my rant about work to my public account instead of my private one.

In accounting, misposting means entering a transaction to the wrong ledger account.
