can search engine query future posts?

  • I’m using my blog as an event calendar, so a lot of my posts are posted to the future. I want the search function to query these future posts, but how?

  • The issue of future posts is that they aren’t “alive” on the blog until after they have been posted. Searching these and getting a result would only take people to a page not found.

    Using WordPress as an event calendar, and posting about things in the future is different from “future scheduled posts”.

    Am I on the right track?

    Yes, except that I create a post in the event category and set a timestamp that is in the future. They are not handled like future scheduled posts because I am using the event calendar plugin so that posts in the “event” category will appear when I browse the category. The appear when browsing the category, but they don’t appear in a search.

    Can I modify the date restrictions of the search query?

    hello, did you ever figure this one out?

    i was wondering if it would be possible to create a ‘separate’ search just for future posts…

    should it be a plugin?

    can anyone tell me what road to go down?
