How do I approve my posts?

Open Posts and tap Approve on each post, or Approve all for the whole week. You can also approve the week straight from the email Scala sends when your posts are ready.

In the app

  1. Open Posts in the sidebar. The number beside it is how many posts are waiting for you.
  2. Use the week switcher to pick a week. The line above the list shows how many need your OK, how many are approved and how many are planned.
  3. Tap Approve on a post, or Approve all to approve every post that's ready.

Tap any post to see it in full before approving. On the post's page you can edit the caption, hashtags and time, or tap Write it again. See Edit a post before it goes out.

From the email

When a week of posts is ready, Scala emails you "posts ready for your OK" with a link.

  1. Open the link. You'll see the week's posts. Tap one to see every picture and the full caption.
  2. Tap Approve (for example, "Approve 5 posts") to approve them all.
  3. Or tap Change something first to open them in Scala.

Opening the link doesn't approve anything. Approving always takes your tap. The link works until the day after that week ends.

Changed your mind?

  • Undo puts an approved post back in drafts.
  • Skip means a post won't go out.
  • Restore brings a skipped post back to drafts.

Why can't I approve a post?

  • Fix it: the post has a problem, such as a word from your Never say list. Open it and fix what's marked in red.
  • Reschedule: its time has passed. Choose a new day and time, or skip it.
  • Its picture is still being made: wait a few seconds.
  • Photos copied from your website or Instagram: confirm you may use them first. See Why does Scala ask me to confirm my photos?

Approving closes 5 minutes before a post's time.
