The posting schedule and queue
Set the weekly times you want to post, then add posts to the next free slot.
The posting schedule is your weekly set of posting times. Add to queue puts a post in the next free one, so you do not have to pick a time each time.
Set your posting schedule#
- Open the workspace switcher at the top of the sidebar and choose Workspace settings.
- Open Schedule.
- Under Add a time, pick the schedule (Global (all platforms), X or LinkedIn), a time, a timezone and the days.
- Choose Add to schedule.
Workspace settings are open to the workspace's owners and admins.
Add a post to the queue#
In the editor, open Publish and choose Add to queue. You can also use Add to queue on a draft in your post list. Postopus shows the next free slot, and Schedule to this slot schedules it.
How the next free slot is picked#
Postopus looks at your slots in time order and takes the first one that:
- is still in the future;
- fits the post: a Global slot fits any post, and an X or LinkedIn slot fits a post that goes to that platform only;
- has no other post scheduled on the same platform within 30 minutes.
If every upcoming slot is taken, Postopus says so and offers Add more slots.
