  5. If a post was held #

    If a post's time passes before it can go out, Wallflower holds it instead of posting late. You'll see "This post's scheduled time has passed." Click Publish now, or reschedule it for a new time.

    If it was paused because a channel disconnected, reconnect first, then choose Publish now or reschedule. See Reconnect a channel.
