Drafts
Save unfinished posts, return to them later, and manage draft content before publishing.
Drafts allow you to save work in progress without scheduling or publishing a post. Use drafts to collaborate, gather approvals, or continue working on content at a later time.
Before you start
Drafts are only visible within the workspace where they were created.
Saved drafts appear gray on the Content Calendar.

How you remove a post depends on its current state. Pick the right path below.

Deleted Scheduled Posts go to Trash
Deleted scheduled posts move to Trash, so you can recover them if you change your mind.
Delete it on the Social Platform
Posts that have published cannot be deleted from Flamel's calendar because they now live on the social platform itself.
Delete the post directly on the social platform (Facebook, Instagram, etc.).
The post still appears in your Flamel history for reporting purposes, even after you remove it from the platform.
Recover Scheduled Posts
If you accidentally delete a scheduled post, you can get it back from Trash.
Go to Trash
Navigate to: Plan > Trash
Find and Restore
Find the post you want to recover and click Restore.
