What’s inside

Three tabs, each doing one job — no clutter, no unused columns.

Refresh Tracker

Enter a publish date, and Age and Status calculate themselves off today’s date — updated automatically every time you open the file, not just the day you filled it in.

Repurpose Log

What you’ve already turned into new content elsewhere — original post, new platform, and a status dropdown.

Dashboard

Three live counters — total posts tracked, how many are due for a refresh right now, and how many you’ve repurposed — plus a status chart.

Who it’s for

  • Creators with a back catalog of posts who’ve lost track of what’s still accurate
  • Anyone who keeps meaning to repurpose old content but has no system for tracking it
  • Creators who want a refresh reminder that updates itself — not a static checklist that goes stale
faq

Common questions

How does the Age column stay up to date?
Age is calculated from the Publish Date you enter, compared to today’s date, using a live formula — it recalculates automatically every time you open the file, so it’s always accurate.
What do the refresh status thresholds mean?
Under 3 months is Fresh (green), 3–6 months is Review Soon (amber tint), and 6+ months is Refresh Due (solid amber) — based on how quickly most content tends to go stale.
Can I change the refresh thresholds?
Yes — the Status formula in column E references fixed month thresholds. Edit the numbers in that formula (6 and 3) to whatever timeline fits your content.
Does the Dashboard update automatically?
Yes — every KPI card and the status chart are live formulas that recalculate the moment you add a post or change a repurpose status.
