Description
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.
Installation
e.g.
- Upload
the-future-is-now.phpto the/wp-content/plugins/directory - Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
- Assign the post type of your choice in Settings -> Future is Now
- Create a new post of your chosen post type with a timestamp in the future and notice that it appears on your site anyway.
FAQ
Q: What should be done after updating to v3.0 or later?
A: Please re-activate the plugin.
