Drafts and Scheduling

How to save posts for later and schedule them to publish automatically.

What is a draft?

A draft is a post you've started writing but haven't published yet. Maybe you want to come back to it later, get feedback from a colleague, or wait for the right time to post. Fervae saves your work so nothing gets lost.

How drafts move through your pipeline

StatusWhat it means
DraftIn your content pool. You're still working on it or haven't decided when to post it.
PlannedYou've decided to post it on a particular day, but you haven't set an exact time yet.
ScheduledYou've picked a specific date and time. Fervae will publish it automatically. You don't need to be online.
PublishedLive on your social accounts.

Scheduling a post

Scheduling means telling Fervae to publish your post at a future date and time. This is useful if you want to post at a time when your audience is most active, or if you're batch-writing content for the week ahead.

  1. Write your post in the Lab compose editor.
  2. Instead of hitting Publish, look for the scheduling option.
  3. Pick a date and time.
  4. Fervae uses your browser's timezone automatically, so if you set it for 9am, it goes out at 9am your time.
The Schedule view (Pro)

The dedicated Schedule section is a visual content calendar where you can see all your planned and scheduled posts laid out by day, week, or month. Drag posts around to reschedule them, and see at a glance whether you have gaps in your posting cadence. Scheduling itself is a Pro feature.

Managing your drafts

Open the Lab and stay on the Drafts tab to see everything you've saved. You can search, filter by status, and use bulk actions to move or delete multiple drafts at once.
