Engage’s publishing experience has been upgraded with three new features:

  • An all-in-one tab workflow for creating and editing posts by channel

  • An integrated video editor in Publish

  • Enhanced thumbnail support for link previews in your posts

This article will cover:


Using the Publishing Tabs Workflow

The tabs workflow will simplify switching between channels, making it easier to make channel-specific edits.

  1. Click the Engage drop-down in the left-hand navigation bar

  2. Select Publish

  3. Click Create

  4. Click Post

  5. Select your social accounts

    Note: The tabs are dynamic, meaning that as you select each new social account to compose a post for, the channel-specific tab for that social channel will then appear in the composer. (I.E. - as you select Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn accounts, tabs for each of those channels will appear, plus the General (or ‘global’ tab)).

    Note: Any text or attachments added or edited in the General tab will auto-populate into the subsequent channel-specific tabs.

  6. To edit your post by channel

    1. Click on the specific social channel tab

    2. Make edits as necessary

    3. Repeat for any other social channel

  7. Any post customized via the individual tabs that differ from the General tab will include a Customized badge on their preview

  8. If there are any errors in the post specific to a channel, the channel tab will be highlighted in red

Channel-Specific Customizations

Channel-specific customizations include images, videos, gifs, and emojis ( where applicable), as well as:

  • Facebook: audience restrictions

  • Instagram: post type, people and product tags, collaborators, first comment

  • LinkedIn: audience restrictions

  • TikTok: advanced settings

  • X: n/a

  • YouTube: title, private, advanced settings


Using the Integrated Video Editor

The video editor works similarly to the image editor in Publish. To launch the video editor, follow these steps:

  1. Click the Engage drop-down in the left-hand navigation bar

  2. Click Publish

  3. Select Create in the top right-hand corner

  4. Click Post

  5. Upload your video in the General Tab

  6. Hover over the thumbnail once loaded

  7. Click Edit

  8. Once satisfied with your edits, click Export Video to automatically insert the video back into Publisher. Learn more about Features and Functions below.

Note: The video editor is currently only available in the General Compose Tab.

Features and Functions in the Video Editor

Trimming and Cropping: Trim the length of videos and crop the video frame to desired dimensions.

Filters and Adjustments: The editor includes various filters and adjustment tools for brightness, contrast, saturation, and more.

Text and Sticker: Add text overlays and stickers to videos.
