To edit a scheduled Pin in SkedCast, open it from Posts or the calendar and change anything, image and board included, or cancel it; nothing reaches Pinterest until it publishes. A Pin scheduled in Pinterest itself can change its date and text but not its media. After a Pin is live, edit or delete it in Pinterest.
Key takeaways
- Scheduled in SkedCast: every part of the Pin stays editable, and cancelling it means nothing is posted.
- Scheduled in Pinterest: change the date, title, board, description or link, but not the image or video.
- Published: edit the title, description, link, board and comment settings in Pinterest, or delete the Pin.
- A published Pin’s image or video cannot be changed, and a deleted Pin cannot be recovered.

Can you edit a scheduled Pin on Pinterest?
Yes, until it publishes. The difference is where it waits: SkedCast holds a scheduled Pin in its own queue, so you can change any part of it, while Pinterest’s scheduler keeps the media fixed once the Pin is set up.
| Change | Scheduled in SkedCast | Scheduled in Pinterest | Published |
|---|---|---|---|
| Title, description, link | Yes | Yes | Yes, in Pinterest |
| Board | Yes | Yes | Yes, in Pinterest |
| Image or video | Yes | No | No |
| Publish time | Yes | Yes | Not applicable |
| Delete or cancel | Yes, nothing is posted | Yes, from your profile | Yes, in Pinterest; cannot be recovered |
How do you edit or cancel a scheduled Pin in SkedCast?
Because the Pin is still in SkedCast, a change costs nothing and Pinterest never sees the earlier version; the content calendar shows every Pin waiting to go out. See how to schedule Pinterest Pins for setting one up.
Find the Pin
Open Posts or the calendar and select the Pin while it shows as scheduled.
Make the change
Edit the image, title, description, link, board or section, or drag it to a new time on the calendar.
Save
SkedCast checks the Pin against Pinterest’s limits again and keeps it in the queue.
Or cancel it
Cancel the post and nothing is sent to Pinterest.
How do you edit a Pin you scheduled in Pinterest?
Scheduled Pins appear on your Pinterest profile above your published ones. Open the Pin to change its publish date, title, board, description or link; Pinterest does not let you change its image or video. To cancel it, open the scheduled Pin’s menu and choose Delete.
How do you edit or delete a Pin after it publishes?
In Pinterest. Open your profile, select the Pin, open the ellipsis menu and choose Edit. Depending on how the Pin was created, you can change its title, description, link, board and comment settings, then save. A published Pin’s image, video or audio cannot be changed; to use a different image, create a new Pin.
To delete it, open the same edit view and choose Delete, then confirm. Pinterest warns that deleted Pins cannot be recovered. See the Pinterest scheduler for what SkedCast publishes to Pinterest.
