UPBEAT OS publishes through a few different surfaces depending on the format. There’s no single “Publishing” sidebar entry — instead, articles publish from the article editor, social posts publish from the Social composer, and you can review every scheduled item from the Library.
A standalone publishing queue page exists at /app/publishing and surfaces every scheduled item across platforms. It’s not in the main sidebar today — you can reach it from this URL or from the publishing controls on individual content pieces.

All platforms must be connected from the Integrations section of Settings before you can publish to them. See the relevant integration guide for setup steps.

Publishing immediately vs scheduling

When you’re ready to publish a piece of content, you choose to:
  • Publish now — Content goes live immediately on the selected platform
  • Schedule — Choose a date and time; the content publishes automatically at that moment
Scheduling is available for all supported platforms. Scheduled content appears in your publish queue until it goes live.

How the publish queue works

The publish queue shows all your scheduled content in chronological order across all platforms. From the queue you can:
  • See what’s publishing when and on which platform
  • Edit the scheduled date/time
  • Cancel a scheduled post
  • Publish something early if you decide not to wait
The queue updates in real time. If you reschedule a post in the Content Planner’s calendar view, the change is reflected in the publish queue automatically.

Platform requirements

Before you can publish to a platform, you need:
  • The platform connected (the Integrations section of Settings)
  • For WordPress: a URL and credentials
  • For LinkedIn: a personal LinkedIn account
  • For Facebook/Instagram/Threads: a Meta account with admin access to the page or profile

Publishing from the article editor

For articles destined for WordPress, you can publish directly from the editor:
  1. Finish writing and reviewing your article.
  2. Click Publish in the editor sidebar.
  3. Select WordPress as the destination.
  4. Choose publish immediately or schedule for a specific date and time.
  5. Confirm.
The article syncs to WordPress. If you’ve scheduled it, it appears in the publish queue until the scheduled time.

Publishing from the social composer

Social posts (LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, Threads) are created and published from the social composer at /app/community. You can compose a post, preview how it will look on each platform, and publish immediately or schedule it. From the social composer, you can also cross-post to multiple platforms at once — write once, select multiple destinations.

The cadence system

Beat tracks how many times you’ve published to each platform recently and surfaces a warning if you’re about to over-schedule. If you’re queuing 5 LinkedIn posts in one day but your cadence target is 3 per week, Beat will flag the mismatch. This isn’t a hard block — you can override it — but it’s a useful guard against accidentally flooding your audience’s feed or damaging platform reach with uncharacteristic publishing spikes.
