Configuration
The configuration is straightforward. However, you have to configure the module in order to work. If you don't configure, the content planner is just empty. The following video gives you a walk through of what needs to be done: https://youtu.be/JAqb7cJgovY?t=1180
Configuration of Content Calendar
Configure your Content Types for Content Calendar
Every Content Type you wish to be displayed on the Content Calendar has to be configured in conjunction with the Scheduler module.
For this go into the desired Content Type and set the following options:
- Option "Enable scheduler publishing for this content type"
- Option "Change content creation time to match the scheduled publish time"
- Option "Require scheduled publishing"
It is recommended to check the option "Publish the content immediately after saving" for dates in the past, but that is up to you.

Content Planner Settings: Enable Content Types for display
Go to /admin/content-calendar/settings and select every Content Type you wish to display in the Conten Calendar.

Once added to the Content Calendar, you may configure the Content Type to have a different label and color.

Content Types in Content Calendar
Once you are done with the Content Calendar settings and added some content, you can click on the Calendar tab and you will jump directly to the current's month and it will display every piece of content connected to the Content calendar.

Configure your workflow
