Content Calendar

The Content Calendar gives you a powerful overview of your publishing schedule. Using this editorial Calendar, you can easily see when content is planned, and when it was published. You can also drag-and-drop content to a new publication date. By default, you see all the WordPress content you have planned for the next few weeks. If you need to drill down, you can filter the calendar by post status, categories, users or post types.

Content Overview

The Content Overview screen is a companion to the Calendar screen. Whereas the Calendar allows you to see content organized by dates, Content Overview allows you to drill down and see content organized by status, categories, or users. In the top-right corner is a “Print” button. Click this to get a printable overview of all your planned content.

Content Notifications

Notifications keep you and your team up to date on changes to important content. Users can be subscribed to notifications for any post, either individually or by selecting user groups. PublishPress Planner allows you to create powerful notification workflows based on post types, categories, status changes and much more.

Editorial Comments

A very important feature in PublishPress Planner is commenting. You can leave comments under each post you write. This is a private conversation between writers and editors and allows you to discuss what needs to be changed before publication.

Editorial Metadata

Metadata enables you to keep track of important requirements for your content. This feature allows you to create fields and store information about content items. By default, PublishPress Planner provides 4 examples of metadata, but you can add your own to meet your team’s needs.

Slack Notifications

This PublishPress Planner Pro feature integrates your notifications with Slack. You can send notifications directly to a Slack channel and even reply without logging into WordPress.

Reminder Notifications

This PublishPress Planner Pro feature allows you to send notifications either before or after the publishing date for content. For example, before publication, you can send a reminder to editors, asking them to proof-read the post for publication. Or two or three days after publication, you can send a reminder to various team members, asking them to promote the post on social media.

PublishPress Planner is a vital part of my workflow, and the support team are brilliant.

I manage 7 sites for my own business, as well as looking after over 150 client sites, and this plugin is great for keeping an eye on what's going on with the content team, when content is getting published and so on. TBH, I think we only use a fraction of what it is capable of, but what we do use is excellent.

It's a great project for planning. Though, It is a little more of a learning curve than I expected. I transferred from another content planner calendar and need to reorganize my posts again because they didn't come across under the date I scheduled them.
