A shortcode, showing planned posts.
For one of my projects, I was looking for a WordPress Plugin that shows the next planned posts in a widget. The one Plugin in the WP Repository seemd too “strong” to me, I wanted something more minimalistic.
So, I did my own minimalistic Plugin.
You can use it, improve on it and do with it, whatever you want.
Demo of the Plugin
- This post is planned for August 21, 2087 – 21. August 2087
That’s when I turn 100.
How to use the Shortcode
Download the plugin
The link is above.
Install & Activate
Install it via the WordPress Plugin Installer.
Plugins -> Install -> Upload the ZIP
-> Activate it
Use the shortcode
The Shortcode is:
[upcoming_posts]
If you are using the Classic Editor:
Just put in the shortcode.
If you are using the Gutenberg Editor:
Add a shortcode-block and paste in the shortcode.
By default, it will show the next 5 upcoming posts. If you want to show a different number, use the numberposts attribute, e.g.
[upcoming_posts numberposts="10"]
