Hi,

Is it possible to publish a topic in the future?

It seems to be possible:

- sending a PM to myself
- then planing the publication in the future

Is it the simplest way? How can I set tags with this method?

There is also [Shared Drafts: Allow staff to collaborate on posts before publishing](https://meta.discourse.org/t/shared-drafts-allow-staff-to-collaborate-on-posts-before-publishing/83493) if you want to share drafts with your team.
