Only the account owner and workspace admins can manage channels. See Members and permissions.

The channel list

Settings → Channels lists every channel connected to the workspace.
  • Drag to reorder, or use Move up / Move down in a channel’s menu, or drag channels in the sidebar. This order is the one used in the sidebar and in the composer.
  • Each channel’s menu also has View profile (opens it on the network), Refresh connection and Disconnect.
  • A channel that lost its connection shows Connection lost and a Reconnect button. See Reconnect a channel.
  • The gear icon opens Channel settings for that channel.

Time zone

Time zone is the zone of this channel’s posting schedule: posting slots and recurring posts follow its clock. A new channel starts with your own time zone from Preferences. Changing it asks first: Change the channel time zone and reschedule posts?
  • Queued posts are rescheduled to the posting slots of the new time zone. Each one keeps the same local clock time when that slot exists in the new zone; otherwise it takes the first free slot. A queued post with no slot left keeps its time as a custom-time post.
  • Posts with a custom time keep the same moment.

Posting goal

Posting goal is how often you aim to post on this channel each week, from 1 to 28 posts. The channel’s Publish page tracks it as posts sent this week, which follows your start of week from Preferences. When you connect a channel, TryPost asks for this goal first (Keep it steady 1/week, Build a presence 3/week, Reach new heights 5/week, or Choose your goal) and suggests recommended posting times to match it.

Posting slots

Posting slots are the times that tell TryPost when to send posts from your queue. A post you add with Next available takes the first free slot.
  • Turn each day On or Off.
  • Add posting slot for Every day, Weekdays, Weekends or a single day, at the time you pick. Each day takes up to 4 times.
  • Remove a time, or change its hour or minute, from the slot itself.
  • Clear all removes every posting time from the channel, after a confirmation.
  • Generate new posting slots replaces your current times with:
    • Meet my posting goal — enough slots to reach the goal (disabled when you already have more slots than the goal);
    • Update slots to match TryPost’s recommendations — recommended times;
    • Copy from channel — the schedule of another channel.
Every change saves on its own. Times are shown in your time format (12-hour or 24-hour) and the week starts on your start of week, both from Preferences. Changing slots only moves queued posts whose slot no longer exists; they take the first free slots in order. A channel without posting times cannot use the queue.
