Press Create Post and she has already found your next open slot. The composer opens with that date sitting on the button at the bottom, a blank editor on the left and a live preview on the right. You write the thing once. She shapes it for every channel you selected.

Pick your channels

Your connected channels sit across the top as round avatars. Click one to toggle it.
Nothing leaves the composer until at least one channel is on. While the row is empty the main button reads Check the circles above and stays disabled.
A second row shows up underneath, holding one item per selected channel and one for everything at once.
When your channels belong to more than one customer, a person icon appears at the end of the avatar row. Pick a customer from it and she selects every channel that customer owns, and drops the rest. With a single customer the icon never appears at all.

One text, or one per channel

The globe is where you land, and everything you type there goes out to every channel you picked. Splitting one channel off takes two clicks, and leaves two markers behind.
1

Click a channel chip while you are still in global mode

The editor dims behind a lock, with one button on it: Edit content.
2

Press Edit content

That channel takes a copy of whatever the global text holds at that moment. From then on the two are separate. Edits to the global text no longer reach that channel.
3

Read the two markers that keep you oriented

A pink dot on the chip, tooltip No longer in global mode. And a line under the editor reading Editing a Specific Network, with Back to global next to it.
Back to global asks This action is irreversible. Are you sure you want to go back to global mode? and it means every word. That channel’s own copy is dropped and it follows the global text again.

The character badge

At the end of the attachments row there is a small badge, and it counts while you type. In global mode the number on the right is the smallest limit you have not already passed. Write past a 280 character channel while a 3000 character one is also selected and the badge rolls over from x/280 to x/3000.
Hover the badge for the breakdown: one line per channel, each with its own count and limit. Channels you split off read Internal Edit instead, because their limit now belongs to their own text.
The color is the part that tracks every channel. The badge turns red the moment any channel still following global is over its own limit, and it also turns red when the post has neither a character nor an image.
Red means links too. When a selected channel strips links out of posts and your text contains one, the badge names names: Links will be removed from: …

What the preview shows

The right half of the composer is Post Preview, and it follows whatever you are looking at on the left. On the globe you get her general preview. Click a channel chip and the panel swaps to that platform’s own rendering. Before you type anything it reads Start writing your post for a preview.

Channel settings

Some channels want more than words. Under the editor sits a purple bar. On the globe it reads Settings and stacks every selected channel one after another. On a channel chip it carries that channel’s name, and shows only that one. Click the bar to expand it. What lives inside depends on the platform, and each one has its own page under Providers.
Miss something in there and she does not fail quietly. The save stops, a warning names the channel, and the composer jumps to that channel with the settings bar already open.

Threads, comments and delays

The button under the editor adds the next box, and its label follows the platform: Add comment / post, Add post in a thread, or Add comment. Once there is more than one box, a small column of controls appears down the right side of each one. The clock carries presets of 1m 2m 5m 10m 15m 30m 1h 2h, a field for any number of minutes you want instead, and Remove delay to clear it. A box with a delay on it wears a pink clock so you can see it at a glance.
What each network actually does with the extra boxes, which channels take media on the first box only, and which ones publish the first box and nothing else: Threads and multi-part posts.

Attachments

The row under the editor is where media goes in. Faster still: drag files straight onto the editor, which answers with Drop your files here to upload, or paste them out of your clipboard.
Images and MP4 video are accepted, up to 1 GB per upload session.
Each attachment lands as a thumbnail. Drag them by the corner to reorder. Hover one and a settings icon opens Media Settings, where you write alt text for accessibility and, on a video, scrub to the right frame and press Select This Frame to make it the cover. The library behind all of it is Media and design.
While an upload or a generation is running, the buttons at the bottom of the composer stay disabled. That is on purpose. Nothing schedules halfway through a file.

Tags

Bottom left of the composer bar, next to Repeat Post Every…. Tags are colored labels you attach to a post: pick them from the list, or press Add New Tag and give it a name and a color.
They are not decoration on the calendar. The first tag’s color becomes the strip across the top of the post card, and the tag names are written into it, so a month of posts sorts itself by eye.

Three ways out

Post Now hides behind the arrow on the main button until you hover it.
Press Add to calendar and the post is written down at the date on the button. It goes out at that minute, without asking you again.
The main button renames itself for whatever you opened. Reopen a post that has already published, press the main button, and she asks first, with two answers: Just update the post details, or Republish the post.
Opening an existing post from the calendar scopes the composer to that one channel, so the globe row and the per-channel chips are not there. Global mode is for composing something new across several channels at once.

A draft is a state, not a review queue

Save as Draft writes the post exactly as you left it, at the date you gave it, and stops. It shows up on your calendar at that date and time with Draft: in front of the content, and it sits there. It stays a draft until you open it and press Schedule, which puts it in the queue for its stored date.
There is no approver in PostQueen, no approve step and no reject button. Scheduled means scheduled. Whatever is on the calendar goes out on time without asking you again, and a draft is simply a post that has not been handed to the scheduler yet.

What she checks before saving

Validation runs on her server, not in your browser, so it cannot be talked around from the page.
The first failure stops the save, warns you with the channel named, and drops you on that channel so you can see what it wants.

Repeat schedules

Also in the bottom bar: Repeat Post Every…. Pick an interval and the post keeps coming back.
One post is stored, with the interval written on it. Your calendar draws every future occurrence from the first date onward, so you can see the rhythm before it happens. After each publish, her workflow sleeps the interval and publishes again.
Put a URL in your post and, on the way out, she asks once: Do you want to shortlink the URLs? it will let you get statistics over clicks. Say yes and the links go out shortened, with click statistics behind them. Whether she asks at all is a setting.
Two things skip the question quietly. Channels that strip links out of posts are left out of the check, because a shortlink they delete helps nobody. And an install with no short link provider set up never asks in the first place.
Closing the composer asks Are you sure you want to close this modal? (all data will be lost), and that is literal. Nothing is written down until you press Save as Draft, Add to calendar or Post Now.
