How to preview posts from within the Calendar

DesktopStart


You can preview your posts directly from the Calendar View before they are published.


In the Calendar view you can:


  1. See Recycling predictions. Learn more here.
  2. Easily preview posts by filtering them by post type.
  3. See previews of posts in the Weekly and Monthly views.
  4. See the social account's logo and name in the Weekly and Monthly views.
  5. Easily view posts for a specific date by clicking the Change Date option in the top left corner of the page.




To preview posts on the Calendar based on their post types:


  • Before filtering by post type, you can first filter posts by their status, such as Scheduled, Published, Failed, or Drafts.


Note: Recycling and Recurring options are only visible in the Feed View.



  • Then, click the dropdown next to it and select the post types you want to use for filtering.



  • Once the filter is applied, the Calendar will show the posts that match your selection. In this example, we selected Photo.



When a post is created for multiple social accounts, it will remain visible if at least one of the posts matches the selected filters.


  • Click the post you want to preview and select the eye icon.



  • After clicking the eye icon, you will see a preview of the post.


If the post was created for multiple social accounts, clicking the eye icon will show the included social accounts. Select the social account whose post you want to preview.




To preview posts in the Monthly/Weekly view:


  • First, make sure you're in the Monthly or Weekly view.



  • Then, locate a post that hasn't been published yet.



Posts created for multiple social accounts are displayed together in the Calendar. You can click Show each post to view and manage a specific post separately.


  • Click the post you want to preview and select the eye icon.



  • After clicking the eye icon, you will see a preview of the post.


If the post was created for multiple social accounts, clicking the eye icon will show the included social accounts so you can select the specific post you want to preview.


You can follow the same steps in the Weekly view to preview your posts.



To preview a post from the Daily view:


  • Navigate to the Daily view, click on the post, and its preview will appear beside it.



  • You can also delete, edit, or publish the post directly from the Daily view by selecting Manage Post and choosing the corresponding option.
