Moving and rescheduling posts
Drag and drop on the calendar, and what happens to a published post
Where: the Calendar, drag any post card
Dragging a scheduled post
Drag a scheduled post or a draft to a different slot and it reschedules. There is no confirmation, because nothing has been published yet.
Dragging a published post
This is the case that needs care. When you move a post that has already published, Postiz asks what you actually mean:
| Choice | What it does |
|---|---|
| Just update the post details | Moves the card on the calendar. The live post is untouched |
| Reschedule the post | Publishes it again at the new time |
The warning is explicit:
This post was already published. Republishing will publish it again
Pick Just update the post details when you are tidying the calendar. Pick Reschedule only when you genuinely want the content posted a second time.
The same question applies to a queued post whose time has already passed.
Recurring posts
Moving a post that repeats affects all future occurrences, not just the one you dragged. Postiz warns you. If you only want to move one instance, remove the repeat first, or duplicate the post and cancel the repeat on the copy.
Duplicating instead of moving
Duplicate on the post card gives you a copy to place elsewhere, leaving the original where it is. That is usually what you want when repurposing content rather than correcting a schedule.
Bulk changes
There is no multi-select on the calendar. For bulk rescheduling, work through List view, or drive it through the Public API, which can update posts programmatically.
