## Description

[PublishPress Planner](https://publishpress.com/publishpress/) has all the tools
you need to plan WordPress content including a Content Calendar, Content Overview,
Kanban Board, content notifications, and more.

PublishPress Planner is ideal for WordPress sites that publish and promote high-
quality content. Our goal is to help you publish content from inside WordPress. 
Our aim is to build SaaS-style features in WordPress so people don’t need an extra
service to plan your content. Why use Trello, ClickUp, Notion, CoSchedule, or other
products when you already have WordPress?

### PublishPress Planner Pro

> **Upgrade to PublishPress Planner Pro**
>  This plugin is the free version of the
> PublishPress Planner plugin. The Pro version comes with all the features you need
> to plan and schedule WordPress content. [Click here to purchase the best premium WordPress content scheduling plugin now!](https://publishpress.com/publishpress)

### Content Calendar

The Content Calendar gives you a powerful overview of your publishing schedule. 
This screen works as a marketing calendar and an editorial calendar. You can easily
see when content is planned, and when it was published. You can also drag-and-drop
content to a new publication date. By default, you see all the WordPress content
you have planned for the next few weeks. If you need to drill down, you can filter
the calendar by post status, categories, users or post types.

### Content Overview

The Content Overview screen is a companion to the Calendar screen. Whereas the Calendar
allows you to see content organized by dates, Content Overview allows you to drill
down and see content organized by status, categories, or users. This content organizer
allows to choose any data from WordPress to show in columns. In the top-right corner
is a “Print” button. Click this to get a printable overview of all your planned 
content.

[Click here to read about the Content Overview](https://publishpress.com/knowledge-base/content-overview/).

### Content Board

The Content Board screen is a kanban board that you can use to organize your content.
The Content Board provides one column for each status. You can drag-and-drop posts
to change their status between Draft, Pending Review, Published, Scheduled, and 
more.

[Click here to read about the Content Board](https://publishpress.com/knowledge-base/the-content-board-screen/).

### Notifications

Notifications keep you and your team up to date on changes to important content.
Users can be subscribed to notifications for any post, either individually or by
selecting user groups. PublishPress Planner allows you to create powerful notification
workflows based on post types, categories, status changes and much more.

[Click here to read about the Content Notifications](https://publishpress.com/knowledge-base/notifications/).

### Slack Notifications

This PublishPress Planner Pro feature integrates your notifications with Slack. 
You can send notifications directly to a Slack channel and even reply without logging
into WordPress.

[Click here to read about the Slack Notifications](https://publishpress.com/knowledge-base/slack/).

### Reminder Notifications

This PublishPress Planner Pro feature allows you to send notifications either before
or after the publishing date for content. For example, before publication, you can
send a reminder to editors, asking them to proof-read the post for publication. 
Or two or three days after publication, you can send a reminder to various team 
members, asking them to promote the post on social media.

#### How Does Planner Compare to Other Plugins?

There are other Editorial Options for WordPress including SchedulePress, Nelio Content,
Edit Flow, Coschedule and more. PublishPress Planner is significantly cheaper than
CoSchedule with is a hosted SaaS service. Most people use Planner for free, whereas
Coschedule costs for more than just 1 user. When compared to WordPress plugins, 
Planner stands out for its power and flexibility. Our aim is to give you all the
power of a SaaS service, directly inside your WordPress site. PublishPress Planner
was originally based on the Edit Flow plugin but has had more updates in recent 
years.

We’ve used all the PublishPress Pro versions since launching our community news 
and entertainment website in 2022. I can’t imagine running a site with dozens of
contributors without it. Each plugin is feature-packed and reliable, and updates
come regularly, often adding new features. Also, I can’t brag enough about their
support. Every time I hit a snag, they respond quickly. By the way, the free versions
are also great and have almost as many features, but I highly recommend going pro
to get the most benefit.
