Editorial calendar
Have you found yourself setting due dates for your content items and wondering who is responsible for them before they get published?The built-in editorial calendar makes it easy to manage content items and their assignees. Use the calendar together with the project overview to benefit your planning.
Explore your path to mastery
  • Enhance your omnichannel content strategy with proper planning and schedule.
  • Solidify your strategic planning and schedules, and oversee the flow of your content production with the editorial calendar.

Let’s visualize your content ahead

Let’s start visualizing your content items’ operations – go to   Mission Control > Editorial calendar. You can see due dates, content items scheduled for publishing, and published content items. The calendar puts your content items into four categories. This is to help you quickly check how your content production efforts are going:
  • On track – shows that your content items are in progress before their specified due dates.
  • Delayed – displays the content items' progress is past their due date for publishing.
  • Scheduled – shows you when the content items will be published.
  • Published – indicates your content items are successfully published at a specific date.
Tip: You can get the most out of your calendar when you set due dates.
