# Visual Calendar: Schedule and Manage Posts

> Volta's visual calendar shows all your scheduled posts across every channel. View, filter, and reschedule content at a glance.

The calendar is your command center for content scheduling. Every post you've queued — across all your connected social channels — appears in one unified view, so you can spot gaps, avoid overlap, and plan your publishing cadence without juggling spreadsheets or separate tools.

## Switching views

Volta's calendar supports two display modes. Toggle between them using the **Week** and **Month** buttons in the top-right corner of the calendar.

* **Week view** — shows every day of the current week with hourly time slots. Best for fine-tuning exact publish times.
* **Month view** — shows all days in the current month at a glance. Best for reviewing overall publishing density and spotting quiet days.

Use the arrow buttons to navigate forward and backward in time. Click **Today** to jump back to the current date.

## Viewing scheduled posts

Each scheduled post appears as a colored block on its publish date and time. The block shows the channel name (or icon) and a short preview of the post content. Click any block to open the post detail panel, where you can edit content, change the publish time, or delete the post.

<Note>
  Posts in **Draft** status appear on the calendar with a dimmed style so you can distinguish them from fully scheduled content.
</Note>

## Creating a post from the calendar

You don't have to go through the main compose button to create a post. Click any empty time slot on the calendar to open the compose window with that date and time pre-filled. Select your channel(s), write your content, and save — the post will appear on the calendar immediately.

## Rescheduling posts

To change when a post is published, click its block on the calendar to open the post detail panel, then edit the scheduled date and time and save your changes.

<Note>
  Drag-and-drop rescheduling is coming in a future update. For now, open the post detail panel to change the publish time — the same panel where you can also edit content or delete the post.
</Note>

## Filtering the calendar

Use the filter bar above the calendar to narrow down what's shown:

* **By channel** — show only posts scheduled for a specific connected account
* **By tag** — filter to posts you've labeled with a particular tag
* **By status** — show only Scheduled, Draft, or Published posts

You can combine filters. Click **Clear filters** to reset to the full view.

## Color coding channels

Each channel in the calendar can display its own color so you can tell at a glance which platform a post belongs to. Colors are set per-channel and stored in your browser's local storage — they're personal to you and won't affect what teammates see.

To set a channel color, open the channel selector or settings panel and choose a color from the picker next to that channel's name.

<Tip>
  Posts can also be scheduled, rescheduled, and managed programmatically via the Volta REST API and MCP server — ideal for automated publishing workflows driven by AI agents or CI pipelines. See the [API reference](/api/overview) and [MCP server](/agent/mcp/overview) docs to get started.
