Overview
Category Queues allow you to assign posts to a category and publish them automatically based on predefined days and times.
You can create queues for:
Promotions
Tips
Blog posts
Announcements
Any custom category you define
Accessing Category Queues
Category Queues can be accessed from two locations in the Social Planner.
You can open Category Queues from:
Content tab → Category Queue, or
New Post → Category Queue
Prepare Your Content (Required)
Before creating a Category Queue, ensure your posts are assigned to a social category.
Posts without a category cannot be added to a queue.
Select or Create a Category
When creating a queue, select an existing category or create a new one.
To create a new category:
Categories define which posts are included in the queue.
Configure Queue Preferences
Each Category Queue includes preference settings that control how posts are added.
Available options:
Enable Future Posts Queuing: Automatically adds new posts created in this category to the queue
Prioritize New Content: Adds new posts to the top of the queue instead of the end
Changes apply to future queue cycles only.
Set a Posting Schedule
Choose the days and times when posts in this category should be published.
You can:
Select specific days of the week
Assign one or multiple time slots per day
Adjust schedules based on audience activity
Review and Edit the Queue
After setting the schedule, review the posts included in the queue.
From the queue editor, you can:
Reorder posts
Edit post content
Add new posts to the queue
To reuse content, you can clone an existing post.
Add a Post to an Existing Queue
Posts can be added to a Category Queue during creation or editing.
Use Add to Queue when posting to assign the post to an existing category queue.
