Post calendar and scheduling

The Post calendar tab shows posts, plans and bookings in one month grid. Click a day to open a panel for that day: what is planned, and a place to add a post to it.

Scheduling in plain words

Ask the chat: “schedule this post for Wednesday at 9”, “plan the Instagram version for tomorrow”, “next Friday at 12”.

  • Selda does not calculate the date. The day (“today”, “tomorrow”, a weekday, a date) and the time are turned into the exact moment by the server, in your workspace timezone.
  • A weekday means the next one. Today’s weekday counts only if the time is still ahead. “Next week” moves it to the following week.
  • No time given: Selda proposes one from your weekly rhythm and says that it comes from the rhythm, which is general knowledge, not your data. You confirm it.
  • No timezone saved: Selda asks which timezone you mean, with a few likely answers, instead of guessing.

Spreading posts over the week

“Schedule the posts evenly” gives each chosen draft its own slot from your weekly rhythm, starting tomorrow, one slot per post. For each network Selda can make its own version as a new draft. For each post it says the network, the place, the time and why. If there is no weekly rhythm, it proposes nothing rather than inventing one.

A planned time is a plan

A planned time on a draft is a plan, not a publish. The calendar updates, and the post leaves only when you publish it from its card or from the Publish queue. To schedule a post for real, Selda sets the time and then shows a card that states the day, time and where it goes. The press is yours.

“This post” means the post open in the Social tab, or the one Selda handled last. If both exist and differ, or neither is clear, Selda asks and shows the options. It does not guess.
