In simple English
This tool helps you plan what to post on your WordPress site. It gives you a visual calendar to drag and drop your articles. You can set up custom steps for your team to follow before a post goes live. You can also send automatic alerts when an article changes status. It is free to use on your own server, but you need a working WordPress setup.
