Creating new posts with the Post Composer

How do I create a new post? Can I assign posts to a team member? What happens when I schedule a post?

Updated over a week ago

Structure of the Post Composer

Channel

Here you can select the channel on which the post should be published.

Tags

New tags can be assigned using the "Tags" button in the action bar at the top.

Publishing

  • Scheduled: The post is still in planning and should not be published immediately

  • Publish now: The post will be published as soon as "publish now" is clicked

Date/Time

In case of a scheduled post, you can freely set the time of the desired publication in the future.

Status (release process)

  • Suggested: The post will not be published even if the scheduled time of publication is reached.

  • Approved: The post will be published at the scheduled time if "Automatic" is selected for publishing (see "Publish mode").

Publish mode

  • Autopublish: Posts are automatically published at the selected time when the "Approved" status was selected.

  • Remind me: 10 minutes before the scheduled time of publication, the assigned person will receive an email, Swat.io will not publish the post itself.

Assigned to

Here you can select which team member you want to assign the post to - if you don't select anyone, the post will automatically be assigned to yourself once you save or publish it.
