The calendar offers three distinct views — Month, Week, and Day — each suited to a different planning horizon. Switch between them using the toggle at the top right of the calendar toolbar.


Month View

The default view when you open the calendar.

What you see

  • A full 6-row grid covering the entire month plus overflow days from the adjacent months (greyed out).
  • Post chips — one chip per scheduled post, showing a platform icon and a truncated snippet of the caption or video title.
  • Campaign bars — full-width colored strips above the first row spanning the exact date range of each active campaign. Each bar is labeled with the campaign name.
  • A + button appears on hover over any day cell.

Best for

  • Getting a strategic overview of post density.
  • Spotting gaps or over-crowded days at a glance.
  • Viewing campaign overlaps.

Week View

Shows a 7-column grid from Sunday to Saturday for the selected week.

What you see

  • Day headers with the date, highlighted if today.
  • Campaign bars rendered above the column headers, spanning only the columns that fall within the campaign's date range.
  • Posts listed in each column in chronological order, with their scheduled time shown on each chip.
  • Empty column areas are clickable to create a post on that day.
  • ‹ / › arrows move backward or forward by exactly 7 days.
  • The current month label in the toolbar updates automatically if the week crosses a month boundary.

Day View

A 24-hour vertical timeline for a single day.

What you see

  • Hour rows from 0:00 to 23:00.
  • Posts pinned to their exact scheduled hour slot.
  • Empty hour rows display a subtle + indicator on hover.

Drag-and-drop in Day view

Dragging a post chip to a different hour slot reschedules it to that hour while preserving the original minutes.

For example: a post at 10:45 dragged to the 14:00 row becomes 14:45.

  • ‹ / › arrows move to the previous or next day.
  • The current month updates automatically if you navigate across a month boundary.
