Channel Preview

The Social Composer contains a Channel Preview panel that shows a visual approximation of how the current content may appear for the selected social profile.

Select a Channel First

If no channel has been selected, the preview displays:

Select a channel to view a live preview.

Select at least one connected account from Choose Channels before using the preview.

What the Preview Uses

The preview can incorporate:

  • The selected account and profile information
  • The caption
  • Selected media
  • Multiple-media presentation
  • Selected publishing format
  • Story text and Story styling
  • Selected music or audio information

Switching Between Selected Accounts

When more than one account is selected, the Channel Preview includes previous and next controls. A counter identifies which account is currently being previewed.

  1. Select two or more channels.
  2. Open the Channel Preview panel.
  3. Use the left or right preview controls.
  4. Review the content for each selected account.

Platform Format Preview

The preview adapts according to the selected account and publishing type. Supported presentations can include Feed/Post, Story, Reel, YouTube Videos, and Shorts depending on the connected platform.

Story Preview

When Story is active, the preview can display the selected Story media, text overlay, text color, text background, text size, position, Story background, and music indicator.

Multiple Media

The Network Preview supports a media list and can present multiple selected assets rather than only the first attachment.

Preview Is an Approximation

The interface explicitly notes that the preview is based on the selected profile and that Final appearance may vary by platform.

Always verify important content on the destination network after publishing because provider-side rendering can differ from the Composer preview.
