Plan the month on the content calendar

The calendar shows what is going out for this client, day by day, and what stage each post is in.

Before you start

You need permission to edit the project to add or move posts. Team members who can only view the project see the calendar but cannot change it.

Open Projects from the side menu and choose the client's project.
In the project menu, under Marketing delivery, open Social media, then the Content & calendar tab.
Above the posts, switch from Board or List to Calendar.
Use the arrows to move to the previous or next month. Today brings you back to the current month.
To add a post on a certain day, move the mouse over that day and press the plus sign. The post window opens with that date filled in.
To change a post's day, drag it to another day. It keeps its time.
To give a date to a draft that has none, drag it from Drafts without a date onto a day.
Press any post to open its details, read its history, or change it.

The colour of each post shows its stage: draft, internal review, changes requested, with client, approved, scheduled, published or failed.
Published posts are fixed and cannot be moved.
A draft dragged from Drafts without a date gets an evening time. Open the post to change the time.
Pillar mix this month compares what is planned for each content pillar with the target you set in the plan.
On a phone the calendar shows as a list called Month agenda. Dragging works on a computer.
Board shows the same posts as columns, one per stage. List shows them as a table you can search and filter by stage, platform and pillar.
The Content calendar item in the project menu is a separate, wider page for the project's content. The calendar described here is the one inside Social media.
