Use Planner to prepare one post for one or more social channels.

Create your post

  1. Open Calendar, then select Create Post.
  2. Select Click to add your channels.
  3. Choose auto-post channels under My Linked Channels or reminder-only channels under More Channels (Reminder only).
  4. Add your media, then enter your text in Write a caption....
A new post has no channels yet. The words and the + both open the same list, and once a channel is on the post the + moves to the end of its tab row.

Choose how and when to publish

  1. Review Posting method and choose Auto-post or Reminder for each channel.
  2. Select Pick a time and choose a future date and time.
  3. Choose Schedule all to use one time for every channel, or Customize per channel to set them separately.
On Customize per channel every channel gets its own row. The paper plane and the bell on a row are that channel's posting method, auto-post or reminder.

If anything is missing, a gold issues button appears in the footer with a count. Select it to see what still needs your attention. A post with nothing outstanding shows no button.

Schedule the post

Select Schedule post. When Post scheduled appears, the post is ready on your Calendar.
