Post Scheduler is included with Creator. It uses each network’s official authorization and publishing APIs; Bento never asks for your social password.

Connect an account

  1. Open Post Scheduler.
  2. Choose a network and select Connect.
  3. Sign in to that network, review the requested publishing permissions, and approve Bento.
  4. Return to Bento and confirm the account shows Connected.
Only accounts marked ready can publish. Some networks require a professional account, a specific media format, or provider approval before authorization is available.

Publish a post

  1. Select one or more connected accounts.
  2. Edit the content and options for each network. Add compatible media and fix any network-specific requirement Bento shows.
  3. Check the live preview for the selected network.
  4. Publish immediately or choose a date, time, and timezone.
  5. Review the post status and any provider error in history.
Eligible new and existing drafts save automatically after you pause editing. The composer shows Saving, Saved, or Draft not saved. If an automatic save fails, keep the composer open and save or retry before leaving. Scheduled posts do not silently change to drafts while you edit them.

Find drafts and published posts

Use the Drafts and Published buttons below the calendar to switch lists without scrolling through every draft. The Published list shows completed posts first, with scheduled posts and posts needing attention below them. The larger network icons above each post title show its destinations. A gray icon means that destination is not published yet. A colored icon means it was published; when the network supplied a post link, click the icon to open that exact post. Hover over an icon, or focus a linked icon, to see the saved account name. Disconnecting a social account no longer removes the published destination or its saved link from Bento history. If a network never supplied a permalink, its published icon remains visible but has no link. Links removed by an earlier disconnection cannot be restored automatically. Bento blocks publishing when a connection is expired or unhealthy. Reconnect the account, confirm it is ready, and try again. Moving off Creator cancels unpublished scheduled jobs; posts already published remain on their networks. Composer previews use your selected media and network-specific framing. If you try to leave with unsaved work, Bento asks before discarding the draft.
A saved draft or scheduled job is not proof of provider delivery. Check the final status in Bento and the post on the destination network.
