I miss that feature as well so I’ve just created a ticket (just so you know):
https://core.trac.www.ads-software.com/ticket/47996

Thanks for the links!

What I meant though were WP articles, pages, basically the whole content in multiple languages simultaneously.

Something like xLanguage or qTranslate, but built-in.

Ok, this is what I have now, maybe I should write it down here for future reference. So far it works for me, if you have some issues or comment, please tell me…

You have to patch two files:

– in “general_template.php” there is “wp_get_archives()”:
search for:
$where = apply_filters('getarchives_where', "WHERE post_type = 'post' AND post_status = 'publish'", $r );
and replace it by:
$where = apply_filters('getarchives_where', "WHERE post_type = 'post' AND post_status IN ('publish', 'future')", $r );
this way, the future posts will appear in the Archives in sidebar

– in “query.php” there is “&get_posts()”:
after:
if ( is_admin() )
$where .= " OR $wpdb->posts.post_status = 'future' OR $wpdb->posts.post_status = 'draft' OR $wpdb->posts.post_status = 'pending'";
add:
elseif ( !is_front_page() )
$where .= " OR $wpdb->posts.post_status = 'future'";
and then do this, too:

I forgot to ask, is it possible to list future posts in category listings? Is it the same query, I mean same place in source code?

Thanks for the reply!

I’m not sure if I can follow the example though, could you please elaborate a bit? Which way (of the three above) did you use?

My situation is a bit more complicated since I also need multi-lingual posts. For that, I’m using qTranslate but it breaks half of the “upcomning event / gigs” plugins.

Just for the reference, here are the ones I tried maybe you or someone will find the list of some use:

– GigPress – currently one of the two favorites, unfortunately for me, it is written very much from the music-band-side.
– Event Calendar (3.2beta2) – other favorite, if I wont be able to use the methods you listed above I will probably use this. It just creates another date field which is then used to list the upcoming events. And from all the plugins I tried it works best with qTranslate.
– GigsCalendar – quite nice, unfortunately it breaks for me in Firefox.
– WPListCal – it was my favorite until qTranslate broke it.
– WP-Events – breaks in qT.
– Vent – one has to manually add custom field end date.
– Upcoming posts & Subzane upcoming posts – very basic, just lists the future events, unfortunately for me, maybe a bit too basic.
– No future posts & The future is now – as you said above, they just publish the future posts. Unfortunately, there is no way to keep the future posts somewhat separate from the ‘regular’ ones so you end up with homepage filled with all the post from the future (chronological order).

I think I need one or two things: to list a few upcoming events in the sidebar with links to the actual event posts, and a ‘custom’ page which lists all the upcoming event for the month (similar to sidebar thing but a bit more complex).

So it seems to me right now that maybe EC3 is the way to go. I just don’t really like that a post has two dates so I was happy to find several of your posts…

Hi,

please, do you have any news on this? I’m also interested in similar feature…

Thanks a lot!

However, this is a bit too low-level… I was more thinking of something for users, perhaps a plugin or a extension of some sort?
