Save a SoMe draft without time?

SOLVE

Hey Hubspot community

 

Need your help: Is it possible to write a draft of a social media post and save it for a specific day but without time?

 

The reason behind: Maybe I have a first idea and want to already write something, but some pieces for the post are missing. But when I have to add a time and something happens and I forget to reschedule it, the post will be published – even when it's not complete.

 

Thanks for any help or tip, did not find anything online.

 

Best,

Fabienne

SOLVE

Hey @FSchumacher you can save a draft of a social post by using the "save draft" button on the top left when creating a post, but once you "publish" it does need a time as it's basically full scheduled to publish at that stage. It sounds like what you're looking for is something like "save draft" but with a reminder to do a final check of it? If so this isn't currently possible within HubSpot. 
The only workaround I could think of is to set yourself a reminder, this could obviously be done through any task systems you use but if you want to keep everything in HubSpot you could create a task within HubSpot to remind you to check over your draft social posts and schedule them for publishing when you need to. 

Once they are scheduled for publishing however they will be pushed live when the date comes, so HubSpot would need a time for that too.
