Campaigns – The Drafts tab

Introduction

The Drafts tab in SU Social is a useful section that allows you to save posts for future editing and review. This feature is particularly helpful if you have content that is not yet finalized or if you are waiting for additional materials such as images or videos.

Going through the Drafts tab

You can send the posts you want to save for later review and editing to the Drafts tab. It might be a draft of a post that is awaiting images, videos, and other materials.

If you don’t want the campaign to publish your posts right away, you can send them to the Drafts tab, which is essentially a list of temporary posts.

As you can see, the Drafts tab offers a number of choices and buttons for you to use.

1. EDIT POSTS IN BULK – when clicked a window will pop up with all the posts you have in the “Drafts” tab so you can easily edit them in bulk, the pop up will look like this:

  • COPY TEXT TO OTHERS – The text you have for that post will be copied to all the other posts when clicked.
  • COPY TITLE TO OTHERS – By choosing this option, the title you have for that post will be copied to all the others.
  • COPY SOURCE URL TO OTHERS – allows you to copy the post’s source URL to all of the other posts.
  • COPY INSTAGRAM OPTIONS TO OTHERS – this lets you copy the INSTAGRAM ADVANCED OPTIONS of the current post to all other items on the list.
  • COPY OPTIONS TO OTHERS – The ADVANCED OPTIONS you have for that post will be copied to all the other posts in the list.

2. MANAGE COLUMNSYou can adjust the column widths in the table below using this.

NOTE: The column headers can be moved around to alter how they appear.

3. SHUFFLE POSTS – This option can be used to change the order of the posts in random manner; if you don’t like the outcome, you can click it again to get different result.

4. SEND ALL FILTERED TO POST LIST – By selecting this, you can send all of the posts that meet the criteria you entered in the Filter textbox from Drafts to Posts List.

5. Remove drafts when adding to Post ListIf you want SU Social to remove any post that was sent to the Posts List from the Drafts tab, choose this option. To keep your list current and prevent sending the same post twice to the Posts List tab, we advise you to check this box.
