    Channels

    In the Channels tab, you can manage the distribution of your stories across multiple social platforms or linear media. This allows you to keep track of story publications at the same time and across multiple networks.
    Trigger the publication of your stories here, eliminating the need to repeatedly log in and log in to your social media accounts. You only need to log in once, for example, to your Facebook account.

    The channels menu bar

    The menu bar is located on the left side of the screen.

    You can expand or collapse the menu bar by clicking on the hamburger icon ☰.

    In the menu bar of the Channels tab, you can limit the number of stories visible in the content area using various filters. For example, you can search by title or restrict the stories to a category. You can also limit the view to stories by a specific author. And you can use all of these filters in combination.

    2. Enter at least three characters, which must be included in the story title.
    3. Click the Search button.

    Enter author

    1. Click on the Author text input field in the menu bar.

      → A drop-down menu opens.

    The footer in the channels content area

    In title view and list view, a footer is displayed in the content area.

    Go to another results page

    • Scroll forward or backward through the results pages by clicking on one of the arrows in the navigation field in the middle of the footer.
      Or select one of the pages directly.
