Calendar Sidebar

The Publishing Calendar includes a sidebar that summarizes information alongside the primary calendar. In Week view, this sidebar provides Upcoming Posts and Content Overview.

Upcoming Posts

The sidebar retrieves up to five upcoming posts from the currently filtered calendar records.

Each upcoming item can display:

  • Upcoming date or timing label
  • Platform icon or icons
  • Post title
  • Media thumbnail when available

Opening an Upcoming Post

Select an Upcoming Posts entry to open its detailed Social Post Review.

No Upcoming Posts

If the currently filtered calendar contains no upcoming scheduled records, the sidebar can display No upcoming scheduled posts.

View All

The Upcoming Posts area includes View all. Its default destination is the Scheduled Posts workspace, where the complete scheduled queue can be reviewed.

Weekly Content Overview

When the calendar is in Week view, the second sidebar panel is labeled Content Overview and identifies the reporting period as This Week.

What Content Overview Measures

The Content Overview groups posts in the selected week by platform. A donut-style chart displays the distribution and a center total shows Total Posts.

Using the Overview

Use Content Overview to quickly determine whether the week's publishing workload is concentrated heavily on one platform or distributed across several networks.

No Weekly Content

If the selected week contains no post data after the active filters are applied, the Content Overview can display No posts in this period.

Filters Affect Sidebar Data

The Upcoming Posts and Content Overview panels use the calendar's filtered records. If you select only one platform or a specific publishing status, the sidebar summaries reflect that narrower selection.

Operational Planning

Use Upcoming Posts for the immediate queue and Content Overview for weekly platform balance. Together they provide a fast planning summary without requiring you to leave the calendar.
