Setting a post to "Use Once" tells Edgar to publish that post once to each selected social account, then retire it so it won't be recycled again.
For example, if you select Facebook, LinkedIn, and Instagram, the post will remain active until it has been successfully published to all three accounts. Once every selected account has published the post, Edgar will automatically retire it.
Use Once is ideal for:
Time-sensitive announcements
Holiday or seasonal posts
Event promotions
Product launches
Limited-time offers
Any content that isn't evergreen
Set Use Once When Adding New Content
When creating a new post, enable Use Once under Advanced Settings.
Use Once and Variations
We don't recommend using Use Once together with Variations.
When a post contains variations and Use Once is enabled, only the last variation will be published before the post is retired.
Bulk Edit
You can enable Use Once for multiple posts at once using Bulk Edit.
Select the posts you'd like to update.
Open the Actions dropdown.
Choose Use Once.
Bulk Import
When importing posts from a spreadsheet, check the Use Once box for any posts you'd like to publish only once.
RSS Feed Imports
When creating an RSS feed import, enable the Use Once option. Every post imported from that feed will automatically be marked as Use Once.
