Slots
A slot is one planned piece of content on a date.
Slots are saved to your account as soon as you create them.
Status
Each slot carries one of four statuses.
You set status yourself, with one exception: when a slot is generated from the calendar and its draft completes, the slot moves to Generated and records which library item fulfilled it. If that update cannot be saved, the draft is still kept in the library and the calendar reports that the slot was not updated.
Generating a slot
1
Open the slot and select Generate Now
Studio opens with the slot’s template, style profile, and vertical selected and its topic filled in.
2
Complete the template's inputs
Review the carried-over topic. Templates that name their topic field differently need it entered by hand.
3
Submit
The generation runs through the normal pipeline. On completion the slot moves to Generated and links to the draft.
Planning a month
1
Plan every piece first
Create a slot for each planned piece with its title, topic, configuration, and notes. Do not generate yet.
2
Order by deadline and dependency
Schedule fixed publication dates first, and pillar pieces before the pieces that reference them. Reschedule a slot by moving it to another date.
3
Generate in priority order
Generate each slot as it comes due, and mark it In Progress when work starts.
4
Track to publication
Update statuses as drafts move through review and publication. The monthly totals by status show how much is planned, in progress, and ready.
