Updated Month View
Opal's updated Month View gives you more ways to see, explore, and manage your marketing calendar. The biggest change is the ability to see moments spanning multiple days alongside individual pieces of content, making it easier to understand how your campaigns and content are scheduled throughout the month.
Here's what's changed.
See Moments and Content Together
The updated Month View displays moments and content together, with multi-day moments stretching across their full date ranges. For example, if a product launch runs Monday through Friday, you'll see that moment spanning all five days, alongside the individual emails, social posts, and other content scheduled throughout the week.
This makes it easier to visualize campaign flighting, identify overlapping initiatives, and understand how your content supports your broader marketing plans.
Previously, Month View displayed moments, stories, or accounts separately. Now you can explore moments and content together in the same monthly view.
More Ways to Explore and Manage Your Month
Beyond campaign flighting, the updated Month View introduces several improvements to how you interact with your calendar.
- Explore busy days: Open a side panel to see every moment and piece of content scheduled for a particular day.
- Customize your view: Choose fixed or scrolling weeks, display content in rows or cards, and adjust grouping and colors.
- Filter in or out: Include or exclude items by channel, label, status, story, board, and more.
- Find content faster: Quick Find highlights matching items while keeping the rest of your calendar visible.
- Reschedule content: Drag individual pieces of content to new dates, just as you could already do with moments. You can also Undo changes.
- Keep your place: Calendar links preserve your selected month and filters.
What's Different From the Original Month View?
The updated Month View builds on Opal's existing calendar capabilities while adding more flexibility and easier ways to work with scheduled items.
