Manage posts at every stage
Drag and drop posts on the calendar to quickly reschedule them
Click and hold on an event and drag it to the new day in the calendar to reschedule the post. Please note:
Doing this only changes the day. To change the time, click on "Edit post"
You can only drag and drop posts that have not yet been published.
Duplicate posts as a new draft
You can do this for any post by opening up the 3 dot menu on the right-hand side.
See the edit/publish history of any post
This is done from the 3 dot menu of any deleted or failed draft. You'll be able to see who, and what time a change was made to any post.
Recover deleted or failed drafts
This is done from the 3 dot menu of any deleted or failed draft. Note that only drafts made inside Social Media Manager can be recovered. There is currently no way to delete a post that has already been published.
