# Schedule and calendar

In the composer, choose **Schedule**, pick a date and time, and check the timezone shown in the dialog before saving. If the post is meant for 10:00 in another region, convert that time before you confirm. The publication stays **Scheduled** until OpenPost queues it for delivery.

Open **Publications → Calendar** to check where the post landed. Use week view to inspect times or month view to see a wider plan. Open the post if you need to check its destinations or make a change.

## Delivery states

The publication and its destinations can show **Scheduled**, **Queued**, **Publishing**, **Published**, or **Failed**. After delivery starts, check the post in **Publications** instead of treating its calendar slot as proof it published. One provider may succeed while another fails. Open the failed destination, read its message, correct the cause, and use **Retry** if offered. The published destinations stay published.

## Change a schedule

Open a scheduled publication to change its date or time. You can also drag a scheduled item to another future slot in Calendar; the drop saves the new time. Published items cannot be moved this way. Check the new slot or reopen the post to confirm the change. If Calendar rejects the move, read its message and choose a future time.
