Add a Post to your Content Calendar

You're able to add a new post to a group directly from the Content Calendar on your dashboard.

Add a new post to your Content Calendar:

From your SocialGlow dashboard, click Content Calendar.

Click the Add button in the top corner of your calendar.

From the dropdown box provided, select the group you want to add a post to.

This will take you to a page where you will be creating a new post.

Creating your new post:

There are 3 different post type options given here: Add Media, Product, and Live Video

Add Media (This is the default option)
Select this option if you want to create a post that includes any type of media such as:

Pictures
Videos
GIFs

Use the Upload Media section to upload your video, picture, or GIF files to the post. You can add multiple to a single post.

You can add any text, website links and/or video links directly in the Message box. The system will generate a preview of a link once posted.

Product Post
Select this option if you want this post to be in a sales-type format.

This type of post gives more variety for any items you are selling, such as:

Product Title
Product Price
Description

Live Video
_Select this option if you are scheduling a post notifying your group members when you are streaming live. _

For the Live Video Link section, you would enter the link of the location you'll be streaming at (such as a YouTube live event link, or Zoom meeting link).

After your post information has been filled out:

Designate each post with the Day and Time you want that post to be published.
Select your preferred Comment settings.
Click Create Post.

The Day is not the date of the month, but rather notes the order of your posts. For example, if you have a 3 days of scheduled posts , Day 1 would post the first day of posts, Day 2 would post the second day, and Day 3 the final day. Later, when you schedule this template to post to a group, you will choose the actual date you want your posts to begin posting on!

That post will now be listed in that template, group, or library labeled with the Day and Time you had selected.
