Can Scala post without my approval?
Not unless you choose it. By default, nothing goes out until you approve it. You can turn on Auto-publish so posts go out at their times without asking, or choose what happens to drafts you don't answer.
Auto-publish
With auto-publish on, Scala approves each week's posts for you once they're ready, and they go out at their planned times. You can still edit or skip any post until it goes out.
To turn it on:
- Open Posts and switch on Auto-publish at the top. You can also find it in Settings, under Posting.
- In Turn on auto-publish?, tap Turn on. Or tap Keep asking me to leave it off.
Switch it off the same way at any time.
Even with auto-publish on, Scala won't approve a post that:
- has a problem marked on it, such as a word from your Never say list,
- uses photos copied from your website or Instagram that you haven't confirmed yet,
- still has its picture being made.
Those wait for you.
If you don't answer in time
With auto-publish off, Scala reminds you a day and two hours before a draft's time. Then it does what you chose in Settings, under Posting:
- Move it (the default): to your next posting day, once. Then it's skipped.
- Post it: it goes out at its time, as planned.
- Skip it: it doesn't go out.
Choosing Post it means drafts you don't answer go out without your approval. See What happens if I don't approve a post in time?
Emails always wait
Auto-publish is for posts only. Every email to your customers waits for you to tap Approve.
