# How to use Drag & Drop Scheduling

## Gone are the days of tedious scheduling. Just a simple click, drag, and drop, you can plan your social media calendar in no time! Whether organizing posts or shuffling posts to fit your latest inspiration, the drag-and-drop feature makes it easy!

### **How to Use Drag & Drop**

#### **Multi-Channel Workspace**

**Below are the following ways you can utilize the Drag & Drop feature:**

- From the Grid/List view on the left side panel to the calendar for Unscheduled Drafts, Scheduled Drafts, and Scheduled Posts
- From one date on the Calendar to another date in the future

1\. You can create a **New Post** and save it as a draft without the date/time selected OR you can click an **Unscheduled Draft, Scheduled Draft, or Scheduled Post,** to drag and drop on the date of your choice

2\. Once you drop the content on the calendar, a pop-up will appear to select the time as well as change the date if needed

3\. Then click **Save**

4\. This will create a **Scheduled Draft post** on the calendar

5\. To **Schedule the post,** click on the Post from the Calendar or hover over the post in the left panel, click the 3 dots to Edit, and **select Schedule**

6\. The post will now indicate it is scheduled with the clock icon in the top left of the post

7\. If you are using Drag & Drop to move a Post Group (a post with  multiple channels), you can follow the same steps with the addition of a prompt to **Save for All** or the **first Social Channel** in the post group will appear
