Edit, duplicate or delete a post

What you can change at each stage, how to copy a post, and how to delete one or get it back.

For everyone

Edit a post

Open the post and change what you need. Changes save as you go. What you can change depends on its status:

StatusWhat can change
Draft, Changes RequestedEverything.
In ReviewThe caption, title, files, networks and settings are locked. Ask the reviewer to press Request changes; team members who can approve can press it themselves.
Approved, ScheduledOnly the date and times, by team members who can approve and publish. A scheduled post needs Reschedule first. See Schedule a post.
Published, LiveNothing in lmnts. Edit the post on the network itself.

Client logins that write posts can edit their client's drafts until they're sent for review.

Duplicate a post

Duplicating makes a new Draft from any post, even one that's already live. Use it for a repeat post, or to change content that's already approved.

  • On the post, press Duplicate at the top right. The copy opens.
  • In a list of posts, press Duplicate on the post's row.
  • On the Calendar, right-click the post and choose Duplicate. The copy appears on the same day.
A row in the Bloom Coffee Co. posts list with its Duplicate and Delete buttons, the post's date and a Draft status pill.

The copy has the same caption, date, networks and files, and its title starts with Duplicate. It doesn't copy each network's time or settings, the comments or the status, so set the times and settings again before you send it for review.

Delete a post

Team members with the Delete posts and tasks permission can delete any post. Client logins can delete their own client's drafts that haven't been sent for review.

  1. Step 1: On the post, scroll to the bottom and press Delete post. Or, in a list, press Delete on the post's row.

  2. Step 2: Read Delete this post? and confirm.

    The Delete this post? confirmation naming the post, saying its files and comments go with it and that the workspace's Super Admin can restore it from Activity.

Deleting a post also cancels anything waiting on a network's schedule, so it won't go out. It doesn't take down a post that's already live; for that, see the Live page.

On the Calendar, right-click a post and choose Delete (followed by the post's title). The same question opens before anything is deleted.

Get a deleted post back

There is no undo on the post itself, but the workspace's Super Admin can restore it, as the confirmation says. It comes back as it was: its networks with each one's settings (format, collaborators, poll, who can reply and the rest), its files in the same order, and its comments and reactions.

  1. Step 1: Choose My Account from the account menu, then the Activity tab.

  2. Step 2: Under Type, choose posts and press Filter.

  3. Step 3: Find the posts.delete row for the post and press Restore.

    The Activity tab filtered to posts, with a posts.delete row and its Restore button.
