Move a slot

A slot suggested by the strategy is not an order. A public holiday, something unexpected, a heavy week: the calendar reshuffles without regenerating anything.

Three ways to move one

With the mouse, or a finger

Grab the slot’s card and drop it on another day, in the week view as in the month view. The target cell lights up and the card lands with a small ring. On a touch screen, a long press starts the move. Dropping outside the grid cancels the gesture.

With the keyboard

Focus a card, then hold Alt and use the arrows: left and right move by one day, up and down by one week. The app spells it out under the grid.

From the slot menu

Right-click the card (or press the Menu key): “To the previous day,” “To the next day,” “One week earlier,” “One week later.” The same menu opens the slot panel and, if a post is already attached, “Open in editor.”

Finally, the slot panel holds, in its “Details,” the “Date” field, flanked by “Previous day” and “Next day” — handy for a date far away. On a phone, that is how you move a slot.

A post written outside the calendar

A post written from Posts, without a date, waits above the grid, in “Undated posts.” Drag it onto a day: it takes its platform’s usual time there, and then moves like any other.

What the slot takes with it

A message confirms: “Slot moved to …,” and if a post is attached, “… moves with its slot.” The message offers “Undo” to step back right away.

The post keeps the same local time: the project’s time zone is what counts, not yours. A post already published does not move.

The minimum gap is not a barrier

Nothing stops you from putting two posts for the same platform a few hours apart. The app does not refuse: it flags it. An amber badge then appears in the calendar bar, with the number of points of attention; it opens their list — “Two Instagram posts 15 h apart (minimum 18 h).” “Why?” explains where the rule comes from and what you can do about it; “Set aside” dismisses the point, and “Restore” brings it back. The panel of the slot involved shows the same point, with its fix.

What a slot holds

Clicking the card opens the slot panel, on the right, over the calendar and at its full height; Esc or a click outside closes it. It reads from top to bottom:

• the day and the platform;
• “What the post will say” — the angle, the one-sentence intent written by the AI, which you can rewrite, or have suggested again with “Another angle,” its cost shown first. Without an angle: “Find an angle” or “I’ll write it”;
• “Create the post”;
• “Details,” folded and summed up in one line: “Date,” “Time” (or “No time”), “Platform,” “Post type,” “Topic,” “Format,” “Structure” and “Template”;
• “Follows your rules,” or the slot’s points of attention.

The slot’s other actions

• “Create the post” — opens the creation window, prefilled from the brief.
• In the panel’s “⋯” menu, “Skip this slot” — sets it aside without deleting it; “Restore” brings it back.
• In the same menu, “Delete” — asks for confirmation. A post already written is not deleted with its slot: it stays in the post list.
• In the calendar bar: “Add,” then “A slot,” adds one by hand (the same menu offers “Something happened?” as soon as the brand has a rendezvous); “AI can help” offers “Extend by four weeks,” which asks the AI for what comes next, and “Find the missing angles,” which fills them in at once, each with its cost shown first.

What’s next

The slot sits on the right date: open it and create the post. Once you have published, the calendar is also where you mark the post as published.
