Shared Calendar

A live calendar your clients can see, not touch

RecurPost’s shared calendar gives clients and teammates a live, view-only look at everything you have scheduled. They open a link. They see the plan. They leave a comment when a post needs to change. No login, no password, no seat on your account. It turns your working schedule into a clean, branded view your clients can check any time, without touching the account you work in.

No credit card required.

The view

What your clients see on a shared calendar

A RecurPost shared calendar is a read-only view of your scheduled and published posts that you share with people outside your RecurPost account. Your clients and teammates see what is going out, on which social account, and on which date. They cannot edit, delete, or publish anything from it.

RecurPost builds the shared view from the same calendar you plan in. That calendar sorts work into three tabs, Queue for scheduled posts, History for published and failed posts, and Drafts for unfinished ones. The shared version carries the schedule your client needs and hides the controls they do not.

A shared calendar does a different job from the social media content calendar you build the plan in. The content calendar is where you drag posts, set times, and batch a month of content. The shared calendar is where a client watches that plan unfold.

An agency running 12 client accounts keeps one working calendar per client inside RecurPost. It shares a separate read-only slice of each one with the matching client. That client sees their own schedule and nothing from the other 11 accounts.

Use a shared calendar when a client wants visibility. Skip it when the client needs to build or reschedule posts themselves, because that work happens in your content calendar, not in a view-only link.

No login

Share the calendar without giving clients a login

RecurPost shares a calendar through a view-only link or an email invite, and neither one asks the client to log in. The client opens the link in a browser and sees the schedule, without a password or a seat on your subscription.

RecurPost’s password-free access is one of its core differences from other schedulers. Tools like Hootsuite, Buffer, and Sprout Social ask you to add the client as a user, which means credentials to share and seats to pay for. RecurPost skips that step.

A freelancer managing one brand’s accounts sends the client a single calendar link at the start of the month. The client bookmarks it and checks the plan whenever they want. The freelancer never creates an account for them and never resets a password when the client’s marketing lead changes.

Send a view-only link when the client only needs to see the plan. Give the client a workspace seat instead when they need to edit or publish, because editing rights require workspace access, not a shared link.

Scoping

Control which accounts each person sees

RecurPost lets you pick one social account or a group before you share, so each person sees only what you choose. Accounts you leave out stay hidden.

One account

or a whole group per shared view.

Hidden by default

Unselected accounts never appear.

Per-client links

A plumber's calendar never shows a law firm's posts.

Per-location views

Each manager sees one location, not the network.

Edit rights separate

Editing lives in workspace access, not the link.

A multi-location brand gives each location manager a calendar scoped to that location’s accounts. One RecurPost account holds every location. Each manager sees a single location’s schedule, not the whole network.

Scope a calendar by account or group when different people own different profiles. Move to workspace management when you need to control who can edit, approve, and publish.

Feedback vs sign-off

Let clients comment, and switch to approvals for sign-off

RecurPost lets clients leave comments on the shared calendar, so feedback lands on the exact post it refers to. A client reads the plan, spots a problem, and comments in place. Those comments are informal. They do not stop a post from publishing.

RecurPost handles formal sign-off through a separate workflow. Its approval queue holds posts until an owner approves, edits and approves, or rejects them with a comment, and it emails the approver when a post is waiting.

A retainer client who just wants to stay informed uses comments on the shared calendar. A client in a regulated industry who must approve every post before it publishes uses the approval queue instead.

The shared calendar keeps them looking; the approval queue makes them the gate.

Use calendar comments when feedback is advisory. Use the approval queue when publishing must wait for a yes, because comments inform the plan while approvals control it.

Branding

Brand the calendar and keep clients in the loop

RecurPost lets you add your agency logo to a shared calendar before you send it, so the client opens a view that carries your brand, not a generic tool screen. You upload the logo once, then share by link or email.

RecurPost also emails stakeholders when a scheduled post changes. When the agency moves a launch post from Tuesday to Friday, the client gets an email the same day, instead of finding out after it publishes.

Every shared calendar mirrors the plan you build in RecurPost. When you reschedule a post in your working calendar, RecurPost updates the shared view too, so clients never see a stale plan. Add your logo when the calendar faces a client, and keep the branding off internal calendars where your own team is the only audience.

Clients open a RecurPost shared calendar through a view-only link, with no login or password. RecurPost never adds them as a user and never charges a seat for viewing. The client just opens the link in a browser.
