Advanced Publisher
To access the Advanced Publisher, right-click a Target in the account tree and select Advanced Publisher. The dashboard shows daily limits, planned slots, and active slot counts.
Key Features
- Slot-Based Scheduling: Define specific time windows for publishing videos.
- Day Cloning: Easily copy your schedule from one day to the rest of the week with a single click.
- Slot Management: Toggle slots active/inactive, or reorder them using drag-and-drop.
- Conflict Detection: Automatic warnings if two publishing windows overlap.
Automation Modes
Choose the automation strategy that fits your workflow:
- Smart Schedule: Automatically assigns videos to the next available slots in your Advanced Publisher schedule.
- Single Video Mode: Processes a specific video immediately, regardless of the schedule.
- Immediate Mode: Uploads videos as fast as possible, ignoring all time slots.
💡 Tip: Use the Schedule Preview to see a visual timeline of your upcoming posts across all targets.
Video Management & Statuses
Managing your video queue is essential for a smooth workflow. You can change the status of any video directly from the video list.
Crucial Feature
The "Mark as..." Power Menu
Manual control is at your fingertips. To reset a Failed upload, skip a video, or move something back to Draft:
Right-click any video Select Mark as...
This simple action overrides all automatic logic and is essential for clearing retries or re-authorizing specific content.
Automation Speeds
Control the human-like delay between automation actions:
- Slow: 1.0s delay (Safest mode)
- Middle: 0.5s delay (Balanced)
- Fast: 0.1s delay (Maximum speed)
Example Scenarios
1. The "Daily Routine"
You want to post 3 videos every day at peak hours (10:00, 15:00, 20:00).
Setup
Create 3 slots in Advanced Publisher, set their times, and use Day Cloning to copy to all days. Use Smart Schedule to auto-fill the queue.
2. The "Weekend Blast"
You have 20 videos and want them posted only on Saturday and Sunday as fast as safe.
Setup
Disable all slots for Mon-Fri. Create hourly slots for Sat-Sun. Set speed to Middle and start automation.
3. The "Breaking News"
You have a viral video that needs to go live immediately across 5 channels.
Setup
Select the video in the list, choose Immediate Mode, and hit Start. Socibot will bypass the schedule for this priority task.
Agency-Scale Scenarios
For agencies managing high volumes of content across multiple clients, Socibot provides the infrastructure for precise control.
A. The "Global Brand Launch"
Your client is launching a product across 20 regional channels simultaneously. You need 100+ videos to go live in specific local timezones.
Strategy
Group regional channels under Target Sets. Use the Advanced Publisher to set local time slots for each region. Import metadata via External Files (CSV) to automatically map regional titles/tags to the correct videos. Start automation in Smart Schedule mode to let Socibot handle the sequential regional rollout.
B. The "Content Factory" (Niche Domination)
You manage 50 "faceless" niche channels and need to maintain a high-frequency posting schedule without triggering platform spam filters.
Strategy
Set diverse slot times for each target to avoid overlapping bursts. Use Slow Speed (1.0s delay) to mimic human interaction. Leverage Dynamic Variables with {counter_total} and {file_name_clean} to ensure every title is unique, even if reusing source clips.
C. The "A/B Testing" Workflow
You want to test 3 different title/thumbnail strategies for the same set of videos across test channels.
Strategy
Create 3 Template Sets (A, B, and C). Use Watch Folders to ingest different video batches into corresponding targets. Apply different templates to each batch and use the Schedule Preview to ensure they follow identical time slots for a fair data comparison.
