Hi,
how can I display scheduled posts in addition to published ones on my main blog page using Ultra Premium?
Thanks in advance,
Luca

Hi Luca

Thanks for your support, it’s most appreciated.

Would a plugin like SOUP perhaps work for you?

SOUP – Show off Upcoming Posts

Thank you for your quick reply Andrew,

I think it’s not exactly what I’m looking for, since that plugin is to be used for a widget in the sidebar, while I’d like to have future posts in the posts page.

I want to use posts for events, so in the posts page I want to display latest events (whether they are published (past) or upcoming (scheduled)), while I’d like to use two widgets in the sidebar to display separately past events and upcoming ones; for this task I already found this plugin Recent Posts Widget Extended (https://it.wordpress.org/plugins/recent-posts-widget-extended/).

Since I’m not sure that users will be able to access future posts link, maybe an alternative can be to force to the “published” status all the posts, but then I’d have to find a plugin to query posts performing a check on post date vs current date to divide them.

Sorry for the long post, I hope you can help me since I’m quite new with WP,
Luca

Thanks for your feedback.

The WordPress core can’t by default, as far as I know, display scheduled posts before they are published so this does put you in plugin domain. You basically need a plugin to change that functionality. This is the first time I’ve looked into this so I, unfortunately, don’t have a recommended plugin. You could consider using https://wordpress.org/plugins/events-manager/ instead.

Ok, I’ll try with events manager

It should do the trick 🙂 I’ve used it on a few projects in the past.
