Calendar
The Calendar gives you a visual overview of all your scheduled and published social media posts. Use it to plan your content schedule and ensure consistent posting across platforms.
Calendar View
The Calendar displays a monthly grid with posts shown as cards on their scheduled dates. Each card shows:
- Platform icon (Instagram / LinkedIn)
- Scheduled time
- Caption preview (first line)
- Status (Scheduled / Published / Draft)
Post Status Colors
| Color | Status |
|---|---|
| Purple / Primary | Scheduled — will publish automatically |
| Green | Published — already live |
| Grey | Draft — saved but not yet scheduled |
Navigating the Calendar
- Use the ← → arrows to move between months
- Click any post card to open it for editing
- Click any empty day to open the Create Post composer pre-filled with that date
Managing Scheduled Posts
Editing a post
Click on any post card to open the post editor. Make your changes and click Save — the schedule time and platform are preserved unless you change them.
Rescheduling
In the post editor, update the date and time fields. Changes take effect immediately.
Deleting a post
Open a post card and click Delete. Scheduled posts that haven't published yet will be cancelled. Published posts cannot be deleted from BrandForge (delete them directly from the platform).
Week View
Switch to Week view using the toggle above the calendar for a more detailed day-by-day layout. This is useful when you have multiple posts per day.
Upcoming Posts (Dashboard)
The three next scheduled posts also appear on the Dashboard in the Upcoming Posts widget, so you always have a quick view of what's coming up without opening the Calendar.
The most effective social media strategy involves planning content in batches. Spend 1–2 hours per week creating and scheduling the next 10–14 posts. Use Create Post's AI generation to speed up caption writing.
