# Set a weekly posting schedule

A **schedule template** is a list of times you like to post each week, for example "Monday 9:00, Wednesday 9:00, Friday 16:00". Once you have one, the composer offers your next open slots, so you don't have to pick a time every time.

## Create a schedule template

1. Open **Schedule Templates**. You find it on your **Settings** page (click your name at the bottom of the left menu, then **Settings**, then **API Keys**), in the **Schedule Templates** card.
2. Click **Create Template**.
3. In **Template name**, type a name, for example "Weekday mornings".
4. For each posting time, choose a day and a time. Click **Add slot** to add more.
5. Tick **Set as default template** if you want the composer to use this one.
6. Click **Create**.

Each template card shows its slots by day, and **… slots/week** with its time zone.

Good to know:

- A template uses the time zone of **your browser** when you create it.
- Only one template can be the default. If none is marked, the oldest template is used.
- **Sunday** slots are not offered in **Add to queue** at the moment. Use Monday to Saturday slots, or pick Sunday times by hand.

## Use your schedule

- **Create Post:** click **Add to queue**, pick a slot, then click **Schedule Post**. See [Choose when a post goes out](/help/posts/when-to-publish).
- **Bulk compose:** click **Fill times from queue** to fill every empty time. See [Create many posts from files](/help/posts/bulk-compose).
- **AI tools:** ask your AI tool to schedule a post in the next slot.

A slot counts as taken when any scheduled post already sits at that exact time. Drafts don't take slots.

## Edit or delete a template

- Click the pencil icon on a template, change it, and click **Update**.
- Click the trash icon, then **Delete**. Posts that are already scheduled are not changed.
