Recommendation:

Before experimenting with the Cross Post tool, you should be comfortable navigating through various views in projects.

Some helpful tutorials:

Start in a Document

Open a piece of content that you want to cross post to other platforms.

  • Locate and Start the Cross Post tool

  • Verify the document name and project

  • Select the social media platforms you would like*

  • Click Create Posts

* If you select a single platform, Blaze will create the new post and allow you to jump directly to the new post. If you select multiple platforms, Blaze will create your posts and offer to take you to the project view.

Blaze will create the new posts. Once they are created, Blaze will offer to take you to the Project view to see, review, and manage the posts.

Click Open Folder or open the project you created the posts inside of.

Project/Folder View

You may not see your new posts right away. Don't worry they are there!

Filtering Posts

Switch the project to Table view by clicking the view dropdown menu and select Table. (If you are already on table view skip this step.)

From the Table view filter your posts by the date they were created.

Add the "Created" Column

  • Locate the ellipsis next to the project name.

  • Select Properties

  • Toggle the Created column to be visible

Locate the Created Column

If you do not see the Created column on the table view, it may be off screen. Perform a horizontal scroll to reveal the Created column.

  • Hover your mouse over the contents of the table view.

  • Press and hold Shift on your keyboard.

  • Scroll your mouse wheel (or two finger scroll your touch pad) to reveal the created column.

Set to Sort Descending

Configure the column to sort the posts by descending view (newest to oldest).

  • Click the ellipsis in the Created column

  • Select Sort descending

Your posts will re-sort with the most recent posts appearing at the top of the screen.

Review, Edit, and Schedule Posts

  • Click a post to open it

  • Review, Edit, and Schedule your post

  • Return to your project view

  • Repeat the process with your newly created posts
