📋 Overview
If you have blog posts queued for future publication, Search Atlas gives you a dedicated area to review their status, scheduled dates, and details — all in one place. This article walks you through exactly where to look and what to expect.
🗺️ Where to Find Your Scheduled Posts
Scheduled blog posts are managed inside the Local section of the platform. Follow these steps:
- In the left sidebar, click Local.
- From the expanded menu, select Posts. The URL will end in /gbp-galactic/posts.
- You will land on your Posts dashboard, which lists all posts across their different statuses.
🔍 How to Filter for Scheduled Posts
The Posts dashboard shows posts in multiple states, including drafts, awaiting approval, published, and scheduled. To focus only on scheduled posts:
- Look for a status filter or tab at the top of the posts list.
- Select Scheduled to display only posts that are queued for a future date.
- Each row will show the post title, the target publication date and time, and its current status.
📝 Reviewing a Scheduled Post's Details
To inspect or confirm the details of any scheduled post:
- Click on the post title or its row to open the post editor or detail view.
- Confirm the scheduled date and time shown matches your intended publish window.
- If the date appears incorrect, you can edit it directly in the scheduling field and save your changes.
Note: If a post shows an unexpected date after editing, this is a known issue that has been resolved. Saving the corrected date will apply the change immediately.
⚠️ Understanding Post Statuses
It helps to know what each status means when reviewing your posts list:
- Scheduled — The post is queued and will publish automatically on the set date.
- Awaiting Approval — The post is pending review before it can be scheduled or published.
- Published — The post has gone live. Note that posts on some platforms (such as Google Business Profile) may expire automatically; if a post shows as Published but is no longer visible, the status may not yet reflect Google's auto-expiry. Refreshing or re-checking after a short wait usually syncs the correct status.
- Draft — The post has not been submitted for scheduling or approval yet.
💡 Tips for Managing Scheduled Posts
- If you are scheduling posts from a multi-page Awaiting Approval list, complete all actions on the current page before moving to the next. Navigating pages mid-action can reset your view to page one.
- Double-check scheduled dates after any edits to confirm the correct date was saved.
- Use the Posts section under Local as your single source of truth for all post statuses.
