Drag-and-drop social media planner: plan your month visually
Why a visual drag-and-drop planner makes social media easier, how to plan a month on a calendar, and how to try one free.
On this page
A list of scheduled posts tells you what's going out. A calendar shows you whether your month makes sense: three offers in a row, a quiet week before a launch, or every post landing on a Monday. A drag-and-drop planner lets you fix that by moving posts around, not by editing them one at a time.
What to look for in a visual planner
- Week and month views. Week view for the details and times, month view for the big picture.
- Drag to reschedule. Move a post to another day or time and confirm, without reopening it.
- Every platform in one place. Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok and the rest on the same calendar, with each platform clearly marked.
- Filters. Show one platform or one status (scheduled, published, failed) when the calendar gets busy.
- Click to create. Click an empty slot to start a new post at that time.
How to plan a month visually
- Block your key dates first. Launches, sales, holidays and events.
- Add your regular posts. Tips on Tuesdays, behind-the-scenes on Thursdays, or whatever rhythm you can keep up.
- Look at the month view. Are offers spread out? Is any week empty? Is one platform getting everything?
- Drag to rebalance. Move posts until each week has a mix of helpful, personal and promotional posts.
- Check the week view for times. Put posts where your audience is online.
Common mistakes a calendar catches
- Two posts on the same platform within an hour.
- Posting an offer the day after it ended.
- A gap of ten days on your main channel.
- The same image going out twice.
How Feedlio helps
Feedlio's Planner shows every scheduled post in a week or month view, coloured by platform. Drag a scheduled post to a new day or time to reschedule it, then confirm. In month view it keeps its original time. Click any future slot to create a post there, and filter by platform or status. Feedlio's AI campaigns also come with their own calendar you can rearrange by dragging before you launch.
Drag and drop works with a mouse or trackpad; on a phone you can change a post's time from its details.
Feedlio has a free plan and a 7-day free trial on paid plans. Try Feedlio free.
