Advanced scheduling ​

Fine-tune when campaigns generate content and how you manage publication dates in the calendar.

Campaign scheduling basics ​

When creating a campaign, configure when and how often content is generated.

Scheduling options ​

  • Campaign type: recurring or one-time (fixed number of posts)
  • Frequency: every N days, weeks, months, or years (recurring)
  • Preferred days: optional weekday filter for generation
  • Preferred time: optional time of day for queuing generation
  • Number of posts: total articles for one-time campaigns
  • Auto-publish: publish after generation, or keep drafts for review

Details: Campaign management.

Preferred publishing days ​

Choose which weekdays generation can run.

Available options ​

  • All days: no weekday restriction
  • Custom selection: choose specific days

Day numbering ​

Days are numbered 0-6 where:

  • 0 = Sunday
  • 1 = Monday
  • 2 = Tuesday
  • 3 = Wednesday
  • 4 = Thursday
  • 5 = Friday
  • 6 = Saturday

Preferred publication time ​

Set the time of day when articles are queued for generation.

  • Select hour and minute
  • Generation is queued around that preferred time window
  • Combine with preferred days for a weekly editorial rhythm

Auto-publish settings ​

  • Enabled: articles are published after generation when the website connection allows it
  • Disabled: articles stay as drafts for review on Blog posts

Recommended path: start disabled, review a few articles, then enable auto-publish.

Editorial calendar ​

Open the Calendar to visualize schedule and act on dates.

Calendar - auto-post.io

What appears on the calendar ​

  • Blog posts on their publication date
  • Active campaigns on their execution dates

Views ​

  • Day
  • Week
  • Month
  • Year

Quick generate from a day ​

In month and week views, use the magic wand on a day cell to open quick generation with that date as the publication date. See Article management.

Move a blog post date ​

Drag a blog post event to another day, confirm the change, and the publication date updates (campaign events are display-only and not draggable).

TIP

Use preferred days plus the calendar drag-and-drop to keep a steady weekly publishing cadence without editing each campaign every week.
