Click the Filters button to apply filter criteria:
- Options include status, channel, category, and more.
Once you’ve selected your filter combination, click Save as New View:

To use a saved view:

Search Within Post Content

The search feature allows you to quickly locate posts using specific keywords found in the content body. This is particularly useful when managing large volumes of posts. Instead of scrolling through pages, simply enter a keyword, and matching posts will appear in real-time.

Saved Filter Views

Saved Filter Views help you organize content for repeat workflows, like reviewing drafts or tracking scheduled posts on a specific platform. By combining multiple filter attributes (e.g., category, status, and platform), you can create focused views that eliminate repetitive filtering.
