How to reschedule or auto reschedule posts

DesktopStart


With Publer, you can either manually reschedule posts or automatically send them back to your posting queue using Auto Reschedule. Both options help you stay flexible and keep your content calendar on track.



To reschedule posts on Publer:


Whenever you need to change the date or time of a failed or an already scheduled post, you can easily reschedule it.


  • Go to the Posts tab.
  • Use the filters to find the posts you want to reschedule, such as Failed posts or already Scheduled posts.
  • Click on the timestamp of the post and select Reschedule from the options.



  • Select a date and time and click Save.



Keep in mind that if you reschedule a post on the same date and time another post is scheduled for, you will receive a prompt message, so you can decide another time for it. This happens only if the posts belong to the same social account because each of them should have a minimum of 2 minutes time difference.


  • Alternatively, you can just go to the Monthly/Weekly/Daily view to open the Calendar.
  • Make sure to select the social account you want to make changes to, at the top.
  • Drag & Drop the post to another day. This way it will have a different date, but still the same time.



To Auto Reschedule a post:


Alternatively, you can quickly auto-reschedule failed posts or already scheduled posts back to your posting queue. This helps you avoid rescheduling posts manually.


  • Go to the Posts tab.
  • Use the filters to find the posts you want to reschedule, such as Failed posts or already Scheduled posts.
  • Find the post you want to auto reschedule.
  • Click on the time stamp and select Auto Reschedule from the options.



  • Choose the auto-scheduling options based on how you want the post to be placed in your queue:


  • Select a label (optional) to better organize and categorize your post.
  • Enable Schedule at top of the queue to prioritize the post and place it in the very first available timeslot, moving other posts further down.
  • Enable Schedule after (inclusive) to schedule the post on or after a specific date, making sure it fits within a defined time frame.
  • Enable Schedule before (inclusive) to make sure the post is scheduled on or before a selected date, which is useful when working with deadlines or campaigns.



  • After making the necessary changes, click on Save.
  • Publer will automatically send the post back to your scheduling queue based on your available time slots.


Note: Make sure you have a posting schedule set up for the selected social account, otherwise Publer may not find an available time slot.


Keep in mind:


  • You can use Reschedule or Auto Reschedule for failed posts and scheduled posts.
  • Auto Reschedule helps you save time instead of manually choosing a new date and time.
  • The post will be placed in the next available time slot based on your posting schedule.
