How to Use the XBeast Queue System

The Queue system lets you prepare tweets in advance and ship them into pre-defined time slots — without manually picking dates and times each time. It's ideal when you write your own content but want a consistent posting rhythm.

What is the Queue?

Queue slots are recurring time windows on your weekly schedule. When you're ready to post, click Queue on any draft or generated post and XBeast assigns it to the next open slot automatically.

Presets vs Queues: Presets fully automate your tweets — XBeast generates and schedules them for you. Queues let you prepare tweets in advance and ship them when you're ready.

Prerequisites

Premium plan — queuing posts requires XBeast Premium
Connected X account — link at least one account in your dashboard
Posting enabled — turn on posting for your account on the Dashboard; otherwise queued posts are pushed forward instead of publishing
Queue slots configured — at least one queue slot on your Schedule tab

Step 1: Create Queue Slots

Queue slots are pre-scheduled time slots that let you quickly add posts without manually setting dates and times — just click "Queue" when you're ready to post.

Go to Schedule: Navigate to https://xbeast.io/schedule#schedule
Open the Schedule tab and click "Schedule Content"
Select Source → Queue (not Preset)
Choose days and a time range — e.g. Monday–Friday, 9:00 AM–11:00 AM. XBeast picks a random time within that window for each queued post.
Optional: Configure auto retweet, auto reply, auto plug, or community settings for posts in this slot
Click "Add To Schedule" — your queue slot appears in the weekly schedule with a Queue tag

Step 2: Prepare Posts

Write or generate the tweets you want to queue. Prepared posts live in Drafts until you queue or schedule them.

Drafts: Go to https://xbeast.io/drafts and click New Post to write a tweet manually
Generate: Use https://xbeast.io/generate to create AI-generated content, then save it as a draft

Step 3: Queue a Post

Open a draft or generated post and click the Queue button
In the popover, select the X account you want to post from
Click Queue — XBeast assigns the post to the next available queue slot
The button shows Queued once the post is scheduled for that account

Step 4: Review Upcoming Posts

Review everything before it goes live on the Upcoming tab.

Go to Upcoming: Navigate to https://xbeast.io/schedule#upcoming
Review queued posts — edit content, cancel, or use Tweet Now if needed
Empty slots show as "Queue Slot" placeholders with a link to Drafts — queue a post and it will show up there

Queue vs Schedule

Use Queue for your recurring workflow when you have queue slots set up. Use Schedule when you need a specific one-off date and time.

	Queue	Schedule
Time picking	Automatic — next available queue slot	Manual — pick exact date and time
Requires queue slots	Yes	No
Content source	Your own prepared posts	Any post you choose
Premium required	Yes	Yes

Tips & Limits

One post per queue slot per day — add more slots if you want more daily posts
Maximum of 10 tweets per X account per day (all scheduled and sent posts combined)
Queue slots look ahead up to 30 days when finding the next open slot
Queued posts inherit auto retweet, auto reply, auto plug, and community settings from their queue slot

Troubleshooting

"No queue slots found" — add a queue slot on the Schedule tab first
"No available queue slots found in the next 30 days" — all slots are full; add more slots or wait for posts to publish
"Upgrade to XBeast premium to queue posts" — queuing requires a Premium plan
Posts not publishing — check that posting is enabled on your Dashboard for that account
