Planer's post editor is designed so you can create content for several networks at once, without repeating work. Here's a tour of all its parts.

Open the editor

You can create a post from:

  • The New post button in the dashboard.
  • A specific day on the calendar.
  • The media library, starting from a file you've already uploaded.

Write the content

  1. Choose the accounts you'll publish to.
  2. Write the caption. You can use emojis and hashtags.
  3. Add media: images, video or a carousel.

Each network has its own character limits and formats. Planer warns you if something doesn't meet the requirements before you schedule.

Per-network settings

The same content may need different details depending on the platform. From the editor you can:

  • Change the caption for just one network.
  • Choose whether it goes out as a post, reel or story.
  • Set the first comment (for example, for your hashtags).

Preview

Before saving, check the preview for each network to confirm the content looks the way you expect. Pay attention to:

  • How the images are cropped.
  • The line breaks in the caption.
  • The video thumbnail.

Save or schedule

When you're done, choose an option:

  • Save as draft: keep editing later.
  • Schedule: pick a date and time.
  • Publish now: it goes out immediately.

Working as a team? You can leave the post ready for someone else to approve before it's published.
