Edgar's Library is where he keeps all of the posts you add. See how it works: 

Your Library

The Content tab of the library shows you all of the posts you added or imported to Edgar. The filters at the left allow you to narrow your results.  And each library card provides you a preview of that post.

Each post in your library will show the post's content, category, link preview or media attached to the post, the social accounts connected to the post, and any advanced settings or variations you added to the post.

For details on the variations attached to a post, click the variations icon in the top right corner.  Or to see a larger preview of media attached to a post, click on the thumbnail.

If a post says "No Account" on it, click the Edit button and select the social accounts you want to authorize for that post, and save it.  A post labeled "No Account" will not be published until accounts are connected to it.

Clicking the History button on a post will show you the publishing and click tracking history for that post. 

To delete a post, locate the post in the Library and click Delete.

Pending Content

The Pending Content tab of the Library displays the posts that have been imported from your feeds and are waiting for approval.  Posts on this tab will not be published until they have been approved.

Learn how to import posts automatically from your favorite feeds and services here: Import Posts.

Click Edit to make changes to a post prior to approving, or click Approve to move the post to your Library.

If you don't want a post, click Reject to send it to your Rejected Content tab.

Rejected Content

Feed posts that you deleted from the library or rejected from the Pending Content tab are moved to the Rejected Content tab.

It is not necessary to clear posts from this tab.  Just leave the rejected posts there so Edgar knows not to import them again. Removing posts from this tab may result in them being imported again in the future.

If you decide you do want to publish a rejected post after all, you can edit or approve it from this tab.

Search and Filters

The search bar at the top of the library allows you to search your library by keyword.  And the filters at the left allow you to narrow your results to locate specific posts.  You can apply multiple filters at once to be as specific as you need.

A few filters to note:

  • Source allows you to see imported from a specific feed or added by a specific person. 

  • Has publishable variations shows you posts that have unpublished variations and/or are still in the posting rotation. Combine the No option with the Social Network filter for X to see which of your X posts need new variations to keep publishing. 

  • The Account filter has a "No Account" option.  This will show you any posts that are not connected to your social accounts.  Edit these posts to connect your social accounts.  They won't be published until you do!

Bulk Edit

Bulk Edit allows you to change category or account connections, designate posts as Use Once, or delete posts in bulk.

Please be careful when making bulk edits and especially when deleting posts in bulk.  This action cannot be undone. Always use the filters to narrow your results before making changes.
