Edit Category Queue Social Posts

Need the ability to edit existing posts in a category queue. Currently, you have to go a really long-winded way in order to edit a post (delete & recreate).
For example, If you spot a typo in a post that has gone out, you should just be able to jump onto the category queue, make the edit, and it will be fine going forward.
Even viewing the posts that are inside of a category queue is difficult...
I'd say look at SocialBees setup for examples of this.

Few other thoughts pertaining to this...
- Canva allows you to resize images into mobile video. We like to create an image and video version of posts to quickly scale and repurpose content. Would like to stagger them. for example, one week the image post goes out, the next week the video post goes out. The text/copy of the posts are essentially the same. Currently, there's no option to have category ques go out bi-weekly only weekly. So, separate category ques for video and image posts like this wouldn't work.
- Another idea is to have the ability to clone posts inside a que to replace the image with a video version quickly instead of a daunting copy and paste process.
- Would prefer not to have to have multiple category ques for essentially the same content to make Social Media Management easier.
Thanks in advance. Love what you're all doing. Apologies if we are overlooking a simple solution.

"2. Can the category queue be edited to update the scheduled date and time?
The scheduled date and time can be planned at the category queue creation time, it cannot be edited at a later point of time."
Why impose this limit on the users?

How do I edit a post that has been added to category queue? I need to remove watermark.
It should be possible to change the queue schedule. A very simple example, you realize it is scheduled for morning and the intel 2 or 3 months later informs you that it should be afternoon. Change frequency/timing.

When Prioritize New Content is on but new posts must be published to be activated that would mean it will be double posted when each new post goes live.

Yes, this is absolutely necessary. At the very least, we need to be able to see what is in a queue once created and the schedule that was set up for it. The only way to make any changes or know what the queue has in it is to delete and restart, which completely gets rid of any post edits you might have done when setting it up. Right now my team has to rely on manually tracking this information in documents, and it's very tedious.

Yes!! Well said. This is perfect. It's a very cool feature, but the editing makes it hard to use.

No doubt. The total lack of access to what is happening inside the queue is problematic. We should be able to open the queue and re-order or edit any of the posts. As it is now, once we activate the queue the only thing we can do is create new posts which will be added to the queue after the first time they are published. That means they go out when I publish them and also on the next time the queue is scheduled if I have prioritize new posts turned on.
