Scheduling Posts

The Vivreal calendar shows you what is coming up and lets you schedule when things go live. Anything with a publish date appears on it automatically: your own content, social posts, campaigns, everything.

Opening the Calendar

Tap the Calendar tab in the bottom navigation bar.

Scheduling Posts Views

The calendar supports multiple views you can switch between using the toolbar:

ViewBest For
MonthBig-picture planning, seeing publication density across weeks
WeekDetailed scheduling for the current or upcoming week
DayFocusing on a single day's content schedule

Use the Today button to jump back to the current date, and the arrow buttons to navigate forward or backward.

Scheduling Publish Dates

The calendar lets you schedule two kinds of things from one dialog:

  1. Content: the items you have added under Content. When an item's publish date arrives, it goes live on your site.
  2. Channel posts: draft posts tied to a channel (LinkedIn, X, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok). When a channel post's publish date arrives, the post goes out to the platform on its own. The portal does not need to be open.

Open the schedule dialog

Tap the + button or tap a date on the calendar to open the scheduling dialog.

Pick content or a channel

Choose from the Content or channel dropdown. Channels are marked with a blue Channel badge so they're easy to spot. The drafts for your selection (items with no publish date yet) show up in a table.

Queue items

Check the drafts you want to schedule. You can switch between content groups and channels and queue items from multiple at once, the queued count shows at the bottom.

Pick a date and time

Use the date and time pickers to choose when the selected items should go live.

Schedule

Tap Schedule to set the publish date on every queued item. At that moment your content goes live on your site and your social posts go out on their own.

Rescheduling a channel post, moving its publish date, replaces the old timer with a fresh one. Clearing the publish date cancels it entirely. There is nothing else to manage.

Viewing Scheduled Items

Anything with a publish date appears on the calendar automatically, content and channel posts alike. Tap any item on the calendar to view its details or reschedule it.

Editing a Scheduled Item

Tap an item on the calendar to open the update dialog. From here you can:

  • Reschedule: change the publish date and time. For channel posts, the timer moves with it.
  • Draft: remove the publish date to take the item back to draft status. For channel posts, the scheduled send is cancelled.

Tips for Effective Scheduling

  • Plan weekly: use the week view at the start of each week to map out your content schedule
  • Batch across surfaces: queue a mix of content and channel posts in one dialog, pick a date, ship it all at once
  • Review in month view: switch to month view to ensure consistent coverage across both content and social
