Tips for Managing Scheduled Posts
Best practices: ✓ Review scheduled posts weekly ✓ Check posts before they go live ✓ Update time-sensitive content ✓ Delete outdated promotional posts ✓ Use Planner for visual overview

Common Questions
Where are scheduled posts stored on Facebook? In Meta Business Suite under Planner (calendar view) or Content → Scheduled (list view). Posts scheduled via the Facebook app are under your page's "Scheduled Posts" section.
Can I see scheduled posts on my personal Facebook profile? No. Scheduling is only available for Business Pages, not personal profiles. Personal profiles don't have scheduling capabilities through Facebook natively.
Why don't I see scheduled posts in Meta Business Suite? If you scheduled posts through a third-party tool (like Hootsuite or Buffer), they won't appear in Meta Business Suite until published. Check the tool you used.
How far in advance can I schedule Facebook posts? Meta Business Suite allows scheduling up to 30-75 days ahead (exact limit varies by account). Third-party tools often allow scheduling 90+ days or more.
Can I schedule posts for multiple Facebook pages? Yes. In Meta Business Suite, select the page from the dropdown in the top-left corner, then view that page's scheduled posts.
Do scheduled posts appear in my Activity Log? Not until they're published. Scheduled posts don't appear in your Activity Log, only published posts do.
Can other page admins see my scheduled posts? Yes. All admins, editors, and anyone with page access can see and edit scheduled posts in Meta Business Suite.
What happens if I delete a scheduled post? It's permanently removed from the schedule and won't be published. This action cannot be undone.
Can I bulk edit scheduled posts? Not in Meta Business Suite. You must edit each post individually. Third-party tools may offer bulk editing features.
Will Facebook notify me before a scheduled post goes live? No. Scheduled posts publish automatically without notification. Review your schedule regularly to stay updated.
The Bottom Line
Finding scheduled Facebook posts is straightforward once you know where to look:
Primary locations:
- Meta Business Suite → Planner (calendar view)
- Meta Business Suite → Content → Scheduled (list view)
- Facebook App → Page → More → Scheduled Posts (mobile-scheduled only)
- Third-party tool dashboard (if used for scheduling)
Quick checklist: ✓ Check you're on the correct Facebook Page ✓ Look in both Planner and Content tabs ✓ Remember posts scheduled via third-party tools won't show in Meta Business Suite ✓ Verify posts haven't already published (check Published tab)
Managing scheduled content is essential for maintaining a consistent Facebook presence. Review your schedule weekly, edit posts as needed, and stay flexible for timely updates.
