Automated Genially Publish Schedule Reminders

Every Monday, WebRun checks your Genially workspace for draft projects with a planned publish date inside the next 7 days, sets a calendar reminder for each plus an earlier check-in three days out, and messages the project owner on WhatsApp to confirm it's still on track.

In short

How do I make sure Genially content publishes on schedule?

WebRun checks your Genially workspace every week for draft projects with a planned publish date inside the next 7 days. It sets a calendar reminder for each, plus an earlier check-in three days out, and messages the project owner on WhatsApp to confirm it's still on track, so scheduled content doesn't quietly slip.

  • Every draft with a publish date gets tracked automatically
  • Owners get a check-in before their date arrives, not after it's missed
  • Scheduled content stays on track without a manual calendar review

Questions, answered

Does it publish the content automatically?

No. WebRun only tracks planned publish dates and reminds the owner. Publishing an interactive project stays a manual step you control.

Where does the planned publish date come from?

From the date noted in the project's title or notes in Genially. Keep that field updated and the reminders stay accurate.

What if a project's date changes?

Update it in Genially and the next weekly check picks up the new date, resetting the calendar reminder and WhatsApp check-in.
