Using Board view in Publish
Board view shows your posts as columns, like a kanban board, so you can see where your content stands at a glance. It's available in Publish on the web version of Buffer, next to List view and Calendar view.
:::info Notes

Opening Board view
In Publish, select the Board icon in the view toggle at the top of the page. The toggle also appears on each channel's page. You can also press Shift+V to switch between views.
Grouping your posts
Use Group by (or press Shift+G) to choose how Board view organizes your posts into columns:
- Status: One column per post status: Draft, Approvals, Scheduled, Published, and Failed.
- Tag: One column per tag, plus an Untagged column for posts without a tag.
- Channel: One column per channel.
Drafts that aren't assigned to a channel yet appear in the Draft column along with your other drafts.
Viewing posts scheduled further out
In the Scheduled column, posts scheduled further out are hidden by default. Similarly, older posts in the Sent column are hidden too. Select Show them to see them.
Filtering your board
Click Filter (or press Shift+F) to narrow what you see by channel, tag, and post status. A badge on Filter shows how many filters are active, and Reset clears them. Learn more in How to use the All Channels view in Buffer.
Changing the timezone
Use the timezone dropdown at the top of the board to display your posts in the timezone you select. You can search for a city or timezone.
