## Description

The ‘Future’ plugin allows posts with future scheduled dates to be integrated into
a site. This can be useful, for example, with events that have associated dates 
in the future. Such future posts can, with this plugin, be displayed, both individually
and in archive lists. This plugin also adds functionality to the built-in calendar
widget. It adds a checkbox to include future posts in the calendar, and it allows
the calendar to be configured to show posts from a single category.

## Screenshots

 * Future post control on Wordpress’s built-in menu editor

 * New Calendar Widget with Category and « Include Future Posts » Checkbox

 * This screenshot was taken March 17, 2013. Notice that the April events are displayed
   and the calendar widget shows only the Events category for April 2013.

## Installation

 1. Upload ‘future.php’ to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
 2. Go to the Plugins page in your WordPress Admin area and click ‘Activate’ for Future

## FAQ

  How to show future/scheduled posts?

On your page call, add the get variable ‘future’ and set this to true. For example:«
http://example.com/?cat=7&future=true » or « http://example.com/blog/2013/?future
=true »

Alternatively (and easier in many cases), in the menu editor, select « Display only
future posts » for any category pages in your menu structure.

This displays all future posts in ascending order of date.

  What if I want to display both past and future posts?

On your page call, set the variable ‘future’ to all. For example: « http://example.
com/?cat=7&future=all » or « http://example.com/blog/2013/?future=all »

Alternatively (and easier in many cases), in the menu editor, select « Display both
past and future posts » for any category pages in your menu structure.

This displays all posts (both published and scheduled) in descending order of date.

  What if I want my WordPress calendar widget to display my future/scheduled posts?

This plugin modifies the WordPress calendar widget so it now has a checkbox to «
Include Future Posts. » Simply check this box and the calendar will display all 
posts, including future/scheduled posts.

  I only want future posts from one category to show up in my calendar. How do I
do this?

With this plugin, the WordPress calendar widget also has a dropdown box to select
a single category. You can select a category with or without checking the « Include
Future Posts » option, and the calendar will limit the posts it shows to this category.
