How to edit post

Editing a Post in Socialbud

You can edit any post in the same editor, no matter where you open it from.

There are two ways to open a post:

  • From the Calendar → click on a post

  • From the Posts section → click on a post

Both will open the same editor with the same features.


What does the editor look like?

  • On desktop, the editor opens as a panel on the right side

  • On mobile, it opens in full screen

The layout may look different, but everything works the same.


How to Open a Post

You can open the post editor from:

  • Calendar view → click on a post

  • Posts section → click on a post

Both actions open the exact same editor.

Editing a Post

Once the post editor is open, you can manage everything related to the post.

On this screen, you can:

  • Schedule the post

  • Download the visual

  • Delete the post

  • Edit the post visual

  • Edit or rewrite the caption (manually or with AI)


Top Actions

At the top of the editor, you’ll find:

  • Schedule → publish the post at a selected time

  • Download visual → download the post image

  • Delete → remove the post

  • Close (X) → exit the editor


Editing the Post Visual

To edit the design:

  • Click the pencil icon on the visual preview

This opens the visual editor.

Inside the Visual Editor

At the top:

  • Save / Cancel → apply or discard changes

  • Add → insert elements
