To list down future posts in WordPress

To list down future posts in WordPress, you can use the `WP_Query` class to customize the query and fetch future posts. The future posts are the ones with a post status of “future,” and their publication date is scheduled in the future.

To create a custom shortcode called `[upcoming_posts]` that lists down future posts in WordPress, follow these steps:

**Step 1: Create the Shortcode Function**

Add the following code to your theme’s `functions.php` file or in a custom plugin:

function upcoming_posts_shortcode($atts) {
    $atts = shortcode_atts(array(
        'posts_per_page' => -1,
        'order' => 'ASC',
        'orderby' => 'date',
    ), $atts);

    $args = array(
        'post_status' => 'future',
        'posts_per_page' => $atts['posts_per_page'],
        'order' => $atts['order'],
        'orderby' => $atts['orderby'],
    );

    $future_posts_query = new WP_Query($args);

    ob_start();

    if ($future_posts_query->have_posts()) :
        while ($future_posts_query->have_posts()) :
            $future_posts_query->the_post();
            // Display your future post content here, e.g., title, content, etc.
            echo '<h2>' . get_the_title() . '</h2>';
            echo '<div>' . get_the_content() . '</div>';
        endwhile;
        wp_reset_postdata();
    else :
        echo '<p>No future posts found.</p>';
    endif;

    return ob_get_clean();
}
add_shortcode('upcoming_posts', 'upcoming_posts_shortcode');

 

**Step 2: Use the Shortcode**

Now you can use the `[upcoming_posts]` shortcode in your WordPress posts, pages, or widgets to display the list of future posts.

For example:

[upcoming_posts]

By default, the shortcode will display all future posts ordered by their scheduled date in ascending order. However, you can also customize the shortcode attributes as follows:

– `posts_per_page`: Number of upcoming posts to display. Set to `-1` to display all upcoming posts. Default is `-1`.
– `order`: Post order. Use `’ASC’` for ascending order or `’DESC’` for descending order. Default is `’ASC’`.
– `orderby`: Sort upcoming posts by a specific field. Use `’date’` for scheduled date. Default is `’date’`.

Example usage with custom attributes:

 

[upcoming_posts posts_per_page="5" order="DESC" orderby="date"]

Remember to place the shortcode within the content editor in WordPress to display the future posts on the frontend of your website.

Add same product to cart twice instead of changing quantity in Cart

By default, WooCommerce allows customers to change the quantity of a product in the cart by updating the quantity input field on the cart page. If the quantity is increased, the product will be added to the cart only once with the updated quantity. However, if you want to allow customers to add the same product multiple times as separate items in the cart, you’ll need to customize the cart behavior.
