TOOL1 Editorial Calendar
TOOL1 Editorial Calendar gives you a clear month view of all your posts, right inside the WordPress admin. See what’s published, what’s scheduled and what’s still a draft, and plan your content without scrolling through post lists.
See your whole month at a glance
Open Posts → Calendar and every post appears on its publish date. Colors show the status of each post:
- Green: published
- Yellow: scheduled
- Red: draft
Open any post in one click
Click a post on the calendar to edit it in the editor or view it on your site.
Works with your site’s time zone
Posts appear on the day and at the time they are set to publish, using the time zone from your WordPress settings.
Ready right after activation
There’s nothing to set up. Activate the plugin and the calendar is waiting under Posts.
Light and private
- Loads only on the calendar page, so the rest of your admin stays fast.
- The calendar library is included in the plugin, so there are no requests to outside services and no tracking.
- All your data stays on your site.
Respects user roles
Only users who can edit posts can see the calendar.
