The Future Is Now

Aprašymas

A WordPress plugin aimed primarily at events sites, where you want to be able to timestamp posts in the future but have them appear immediately (by default, WordPress will not display a future timestamped post until its go-live date rolls around). Without changing database, this plugin sets the post_status field to „publish” rather than „future” when publishing a post, even if its timestamp is in the future.

Note: This 2.0 version requires WordPress 3.5 or higher. If you need this to work with versions lower than 3.5, grab the 1.0 version from svn: https://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/the-future-is-now/tags/1.0/

Note

This seemingly simple plugin was graciously written by the magical Ryan Boren when I was facing a deadline. He doesn’t have time to maintain/host it, so I agreed to. Andrew Nacin tweaked it to work with WP 3.5, when the APIs changed a bit. Jack updated the plugin for WordPress 6.8.

Q: What should be done after updating to v3.0 or later?

I’ve been using this for years and it was great for my purposes, but agree that now using gutenberg editor, posts are marked future, so the plugin is no longer working.

I liked this plugin. But it seems not working any longer. Too bad.

If you just need a simple and light-weight solution for your events, this is the way to go. If your theme or page-builder does not give you the option to change the order of the future posts/events, do add ‘reorder post’ plugin, and you might also need ‘exclude from blog’.
