Turn on and navigate Social Inbox

Social Inbox brings comments, mentions, replies and direct messages from your social profiles into one inbox, in its own tab in CoSchedule. It's available on Starter, Professional and Suite, but not on the free plan. The networks it covers depend on your plan: see Networks Social Inbox supports on each plan.

Turn on Social Inbox

  1. From your calendar, open Settings.
  2. Click Power Ups.
  3. Click Enable Social Inbox.
  4. Click Social Inbox in the left-side menu to open it.

Social Inbox collects conversations from the moment it's turned on. Comments and messages from before that don't appear.

Turning Social Inbox off removes everything in it, read or unread. If you turn it back on, it collects new conversations from that point and doesn't bring back the earlier ones.

Choose which social profiles appear

  1. From your calendar, open Settings.
  2. Click Power Ups.
  3. Click Social Inbox Settings.
  4. Turn each social profile on or off.

Turning a profile off removes its items from Social Inbox, read or unread. If you turn it back on, it collects new conversations from that point only.

Common questions

Can I mark an item as unread?

No. Opening an item marks it as read, and its green dot disappears.

Can I use Social Inbox in the mobile app?

No. Social Inbox isn't available in the CoSchedule mobile app.

How do color labels work in Social Inbox?

If the original message of a conversation is on your calendar, the conversation uses that message's color label. Changing the label in Social Inbox also changes it on the calendar message. If that message is part of a social campaign, you can't change its label from Social Inbox.
