Show scheduled posts in archive page

8 Views

I’d like my archive.php page’s daily view (is_day) to display scheduled posts (post_status=future). For example, if I go to mysite.com/2011/05/20 I would see all posts scheduled to appear on May 20.

The archive page’s loop starts with:

Read More
if ( have_posts() )
the_post();

and ends with: 

rewind_posts();
get_template_part( 'loop', 'archive' );

Do I need to make a second loop, or can I modify this single loop to show scheduled posts? If so, how? Thank you.

  1. Keep things simple – leave your archive templates alone and place this in your functions.php;

    add_action( 'pre_get_posts', function ( $wp_query ) {
    global $wp_post_statuses;

    if (
        ! empty( $wp_post_statuses['future'] ) &&
        ! is_admin() &&
        $wp_query->is_main_query() && (
            $wp_query->is_date() ||
            $wp_query->is_single()
        )
    ) {
        $wp_post_statuses['future']->public = true;
    }
});

    Essentially, it says;

    If we’re on a date archive, or viewing a single post, make future posts publicly visible.

    As a result, WordPress behaves normally when you view archives for any given date, except now it also includes posts ‘from the future’!.
