FoxPlug Help / Launch
Plan a launch
FoxPlug has several launch screens. This sheet covers the planner: the card Plan a launch in your Today brief. It makes a plan you read and edit. It never posts for you.
Where to find it: In FoxPlug, open Today and find the card Plan a launch. Open it in FoxPlug
Steps
- In FoxPlug, open Today and scroll to the card Plan a launch.
- In What is launching, in one line, write the launch (at least 8 characters).
- In the details box, add real facts: what it does and who it is for. Numbers you do not type here are never used in the drafts.
- Pick the day in the date box, then press Plan my launch. It takes about half a minute.
- Read the plan: your launch day and days to go, then each place with why it fits, when to go, and a link to their rules. Read those rules before you post anywhere.
- Follow the Checklist (from 14 days before to 2 days after), and press Copy under a draft to paste it where you post.
Try it on your own site first

Good to know
- Places can include Product Hunt, Show HN, relevant subreddits, a few directories that fit what you described, and your own channels.
- Drafts can be for Product Hunt, Show HN, a social post and a newsletter (if you connected a newsletter tool).
- A draft is dropped if it invents a number you did not give, asks for votes, or leaves a placeholder. The card says which drafts were left out so you can write them yourself.
- Your first plan for a project is free. More plans are on paid plans; see https://foxplug.com/pricing.
- Other launch screens exist: launch mode (a live screen for the hours after you launch) and launch-day requests for Product Hunt. They are separate from this planner.
What it does not do
- It does not post, schedule or submit anything for you. You copy and post yourself.
- It does not ask for or arrange votes, and it flags drafts that do.
- It does not promise results from any place.
