# Calendar

# Calendar overview

The Calendar is your visual board for everything content-related — ideas, drafts, scheduled posts, published posts, failed posts, and notes. Drag and drop between dates, filter by status or channel, switch between week and month views.

## Opening the Calendar

Click **Calendar** in the side navigation.

You see a calendar (week view by default) with your scheduled and published posts shown as cards on each date.

## Five item types you'll see on the Calendar

| Type | What it is |
| ---- | ---- |
| **Idea** | A starred concept waiting to be turned into a post |
| **Draft** | A post in progress; not yet scheduled |
| **Scheduled** | A post queued to publish at a specific time |
| **Published** | A post that's gone live |
| **Failed** | A post that tried to publish but couldn't (token expired, API error, etc.) |

You'll also see:

* **Public holidays** (per country)
* **Social holidays** (e.g. National Coffee Day)
* **Notes** — free-text reminders you've added to a date

## Filters & views

The right-hand panel has filters:

* **Status** — toggle ideas, drafts, scheduled, published, failed
* **Channel** — show only Instagram, only LinkedIn, etc.
* **Content type** — single image, carousel, story, reel, text
* **Public holidays** — show holidays for your country

Above the calendar:

* **Week / Month toggle**
* **Today** button — jump back to the current date if you've scrolled
* **Collapse right panel** — full-width view
* **Sync past posts** — bring in posts you published outside Mavic so the planner is complete

## Adding things to the Calendar

Three quick ways:

1. **Click an empty date →** **`+`** — create a new post or add a free-text note
2. **Drag a starred idea** from the right panel onto a date
3. **Drag a public/social holiday** onto a date as a content anchor

See [Adding things to your calender](https://mavic.crisp.help/en/article/adding-to-calendar-14eam80/) for details.

## Editing a scheduled post

Click any post on the calendar to open it. From there:

* **Edit the caption, image, or settings**
* **Reschedule** — drag to a new date, or update the time
* **Cancel** — remove from the schedule (sends back to drafts)
* **Publish now** — push live ahead of schedule

## Bulk actions

Click **Select events** to enter selection mode. You can then:

* **Select multiple posts** by clicking each
* **Bulk delete**

## Exporting your calendar

Click **Export** to download an `.xlsx` of the full planner — useful for sharing with stakeholders or external schedulers.

## Tips

* **Plan in months, refine in weeks.** Use month view to see the big picture; switch to week view when you're refining.
* **Lock in anchor dates first.** Public holidays and product launches are non-negotiable — schedule those, then fill in around them.
* **Don't over-pack.** A planner with one good post a day beats a planner with three average posts a day.
* **Drag-and-drop liberally.** It's easier to start by dropping ideas everywhere and then trimming than to plan perfectly from scratch.
