A queue is a set of weekly slots, for example Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 09:00. Add posts and each one takes the next free slot, so you never pick a time by hand.
Make a queue
- Open Content › Queues and choose Make your first queue (or New queue).
- Enter a Name, for example "Weekday mornings".
- Choose a Channel, or leave it on Any channel, and a Time zone.
- Under Weekly time slots, choose a Day and a Time, then Add slot. Repeat for each slot.
- Choose Save queue.
The queue shows the Next 10 slots. Slots repeat every week at the same local time in the queue's time zone.
Add posts to a queue
- Open the queue.
- Under the list of drafts and approved posts without a date, choose Add next to a post.
- It takes the next free slot. Someone who can approve confirms the schedule.
Evergreen posts
Some posts are worth repeating, such as a reminder about your weekly class.
- When you create or edit the queue, switch on Evergreen queue.
- Set the Minimum gap (days) and, if you want, Maximum repeats.
- Mark a post Make evergreen. After it publishes, it comes back as a new post after the gap you chose.
Every time a post went out stays in its history.
Tips
- Queued posts still use the same posting steps as any other scheduled post. See Schedule and publish a post.
- Deleting a queue keeps its posts and their times.
