Skip Scheduled Posts

 

Your Social Media Manager comes with six schedule queues the team uses to post content on your behalf. However, sometimes you may not want a certain piece of content to post — it may not be related to your expertise, match your brand, etc.

The step-by-step guide below explains how you can skip one of our scheduled posts without deleting a piece of content or the entire schedule. You can "unapprove" a piece of content or disable it.

 

 

Schedule Queues
  1. Navigate to the Schedules section in the left side menu.
  2. Navigate to the Queues tab.
Rescind/Reject Approval
  1. Click on a piece of content in a schedule that you would like to skip.
  2. In the pop-up window, click on the checkmark check-circle-fill.svg at the top left corner — this turns the symbol into a caution sign exclamation-triangle-fill.svg with a message stating: "This content has not been approved yet."
  3. Click the green Update button to save your changes.
    • An orange Not Approved label will appear on the piece of content to indicate that it is no longer approved and, therefore, will not post.
  4. Simply repeat the same steps to re-approve a piece of content.
Disable
  1. Click on a piece of content in a schedule that you would like to skip.
  2. In the pop-up window, click on the toggle on toggle-on.svg at the top left corner — this will toggle off  toggle-off.svg the piece of content and disable it with a message stating: "This content will not be posted."
  3. Click the green Update button to save your changes.
    • A red Disabled label will appear on the piece of content (and the content will be grayed out) to indicate that it is no longer enabled and, therefore, will not post.
