How scheduling works
Every channel in Schedulin has a posting schedule — a list of weekday/time slots when it's available to post. The queue places posts into those slots automatically. You can also pick a specific time and bypass the slot system entirely.
Slots vs specific times
When you schedule a post, you choose one of:
- Add to queue — the post drops into the next available slot for that channel's schedule.
- Pick a specific time — the post publishes at exactly that timestamp, regardless of the schedule.
Slots are great for "I want to post 3× a day at consistent times." Specific times are for time-sensitive content (an announcement at exactly 9am Tuesday).
Setting a posting schedule
- Open Channels and click the channel.
- Open Posting schedule.
- Click a weekday/hour cell to add a slot. Click an existing slot to remove it.
A channel with no slots can still publish at specific times — slots only matter for the queue.
Multi-channel posts
A single post can publish to multiple channels at once. The composer lets you tweak each channel's caption independently (different character limits, hashtags, mentions) while keeping the media synced.
For multi-channel queued posts, each channel uses its own next-available slot — the post may publish at slightly different times on each network. To force exact-time publishing on every channel, pick a specific time.
Timezones
Slots are stored in your workspace timezone, not your browser's. If you travel or work from multiple zones, the schedule stays put. See Timezones.
