Calendar

The calendar is your bird's-eye view of everything Glowtify is about to publish on your behalf — drafts, scheduled posts, emails, ads — across every channel you've connected, on one timeline. It also surfaces the marketing context: industry events, anchor dates you've set, and Glowtify-generated campaign suggestions.

In June 2026 the calendar was completely redesigned. If you remember the old Month / Week / Day toggle, this article describes what replaced it.

Three views

Top of the calendar, three tabs:

  • Year — the whole 12 months as a 4×3 quarter grid. Best for spotting empty stretches and dropping anchors for the next quarter.
  • Month — one month as a 5-row grid (Sunday-start). Best for planning two to four weeks ahead with full campaign visibility.
  • Week — one week (Monday–Sunday) in detail. Best for the next-seven-days execution view.

Your last view is remembered the next time you open the calendar.

Year view

Lays out 12 mini-calendars (one per month) in a 4×3 grid grouped by quarter. On every dated cell, you'll see:

  • Anchor events you've added (color-coded badge by category)
  • Glowtify event suggestions (proposed marketable events you can accept or dismiss)
  • Campaigns as multi-day bands spanning the days they cover

On load, and whenever you click Today, the page smooth-scrolls to the current month. Hover any month header to reveal a + Add event button that opens the Add Event dialog pre-set to that month.

Click any anchor card to edit it; the trailing menu has Delete, which prompts a confirm dialog before removing.

The toolbar exposes a single Event category filter with four options — General, Industry specific, My anchors, Glowtify Suggestions — that lets you focus on one category at a time.

Month view

A traditional month grid with two big upgrades:

Multi-day campaign bands. Campaigns that span several days render as a single horizontal band stretched across the days they occupy, color-matched to the campaign. You can drag the whole band to shift dates, or grab either edge to resize.

Show Previews toggle. A switch in the toolbar swaps the dense post-pill view for rich preview cards — actual visual thumbnails of what each post looks like. Previews-on stretches the grid to fill the viewport; previews-off keeps the compact 5-row layout. Pick depending on whether you're scanning for gaps or reviewing creative.

The day header stays pinned as you scroll, so you always know which day a row belongs to. When a day has more items than the cell can show, you'll see a "+ N more…" overflow link that opens the day's slideout (see below).

Click an empty day → opens the empty-day slideout with a Schedule content action. Click a post pill → opens the post detail slideout. Click a campaign band → opens the campaign detail slideout.

Week view

Single-week view (seven columns) with a pinned toolbar and a sticky day-header row. Inside each day you see:

  • Posts and emails you've scheduled or published through Glowtify
  • Imported posts — content published directly on platforms you've connected (Meta pages, Instagram accounts, LinkedIn profiles…) that wasn't scheduled via Glowtify. These are read-only on the calendar but help you see the full picture of what your audience saw.

Three filters are persistent (saved in your browser):

  • Status — a tone-colored dropdown (draft, scheduled, published, error, archived)
  • Channel — platform-based: Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok, Mailchimp, Klaviyo, CyberImpact, Google Ads, Meta Ads, Blog, Email
  • Assignee — shows team members with their avatar

A + New content button in the toolbar opens the create-content dialog seeded with the visible week range.

Day slideouts

Three slideouts on the right side of the screen open depending on what you click:

Empty-day slideout

Clicking a day that has no items opens a 440px-wide panel showing the date as the header and a single action: Schedule content. Hitting it opens the content creation dialog pre-filled with that date.

Post detail slideout

Clicking a post pill (Month or Week view) opens a panel with the post's preview, status, channel, assignee, and quick actions to open the editor, duplicate, or cancel scheduling.

Campaign detail slideout

Clicking a campaign band opens a panel with the campaign name, date range, channels involved, and the list of posts in the campaign. From this slideout you can delete the campaign directly — a confirm dialog protects against fat fingers.

Drag and drop to reschedule

Posts are draggable in Month and Week views. Drop on a new date → Glowtify re-schedules immediately. Two things to know:

  • Dragging a social post (Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn) updates the soft-schedule stored in Glowtify.
  • Dragging an email (Mailchimp, Klaviyo, CyberImpact) tells the email platform to reschedule. If the email has already been handed off, the reschedule propagates there.

See Smart Scheduling for the difference between soft and real scheduling.

Imported posts are not draggable — they're a read-only reflection of what's already live on the platform.

Campaign bands can be moved (drag the middle) or resized (drag an edge). Moving a band shifts every post inside the campaign by the same delta.

Scheduling conflicts

Glowtify surfaces scheduling conflicts inline. The most common one: two posts on the same channel at the same time. When you try to schedule or drag an item into an occupied slot, Glowtify:

  • Highlights the conflict with a warning icon
  • Suggests the nearest available slot
  • Lets you override if you really want two posts stacked
tip

Scheduling conflicts were the #1 calendar feedback in support tickets. For Instagram-heavy schedules, lean on the Smart Scheduling suggestion — it checks both conflicts and audience activity.

Adding an event vs. adding content

The CTA in the top-right of the toolbar adapts to the view:

  • Year view+ New event (creates a marketable event / anchor date)
  • Month / Week view+ New content (creates an epic to publish)

Events sit on the calendar as context — they don't publish anywhere; they help Glowtify generate relevant campaign suggestions around the dates that matter to you (your sale, your conference, your industry's busy season). Content (epics) actually ships through your connectors.

Glowtify event suggestions

Most months come with a few Glowtify suggestions — events the engine thinks are worth marking based on your Business DNA, your Marketing Strategy, and the marketable-event catalog. They show up in the Year view as suggestion cards. Each suggestion has two actions:

  • Accept — Glowtify creates the anchor event and surfaces it as a hook for upcoming campaigns
  • Dismiss — the engine learns and adjusts future suggestions

Suggestions are a gentle nudge — dismiss liberally on dates where you'd rather stay quiet.

Performance Max campaigns (Google Ads)

When you've connected Google Ads, Performance Max campaigns surface inside the calendar's campaign picker (used in the Paid Ads creator). The picker fetches your campaigns live, plus their asset groups, so you can wire a new ad to the right destination without leaving Glowtify. See Create an ad for the full flow.
