How to set a weekly posting schedule

Open Accounts, choose an account and add slots: a weekday and a time, such as Tuesday at 9:00. Then add posts to the queue and each takes the next free slot, in your workspace time zone. Deleting a slot that scheduled posts use offers to move those posts to the next free one.

Steps

  1. 01

    Open the account

    Go to Accounts and pick the account you want a schedule for.

  2. 02

    Add slots

    Add a weekday and time for each slot. Add as many as you post per week.

  3. 03

    Queue posts

    When you finish a post choose Add to queue instead of picking a time.

  4. 04

    Watch the calendar

    Each queued post lands in the next free slot and shows on the calendar.

  5. 05

    Change slots later

    Edit or remove a slot; posts that use it can move to the next free slot.

Good to know

  • A slot is used once a post is queued in it. Slots use the workspace time zone in the app and the API.
