# Calendar

Source: https://social9.com/docs/planning/calendar

> See everything that is planned and posted, move posts by dragging them, and find good times to post.

The calendar shows every post that is planned or posted, on its day, for the brand you picked at the top.

## Where to find it

**Dashboard → Calendar.**

Times are in your workspace timezone (shown under the title). Press **(change)** at the top to change it.

---

## Schedule a post and see it on the calendar

1. Press **New post** (top right), or the **+** on any day in the calendar. Create opens with that day filled in.
2. Pick the accounts, write the post, and choose a time under **When to post**.
3. Press **Schedule**. You land back on the calendar and the post is on its day.

Each post on the calendar shows the network, the time, **+1** (or more) when it also goes to other accounts, and the start of the text. Click a post to open and edit it.

## The four views

Switch views with **Month**, **Week**, **Day** and **Queue** at the top. Use the arrows to move back and forward, and **Today** to come back.

### Month

The whole month at a glance. Each day shows up to three posts; click the date (or **+ more**) to open that day.

## Good times to post

Some slots are marked **Good time to post**. They are based on when people usually engage on the networks you have connected. Social9 uses the same times when you press a suggested time in Create, or **Schedule all at best times** in Upload.

> **Note:** These are starting points from common engagement patterns, not your own results.
