But that only shows the post on its own — it doesn’t tell you how your homepage, category archives, search results, or “Recent Posts” widgets will look once the post actually goes live. WST Date Simulator fills that gap. Set a base date and time, and scheduled posts up to that point are shown as published — anywhere your theme normally lists them— to logged-in users with a chosen permission level. No more guessing what the page will look like until after it’s published. #### Key features * Set a base date and time; scheduled posts up to that point are shown as published * Choose who can view the preview: Administrators only, Editors and above, or Authors and above * Choose which post types the preview applies to (posts, pages, and custom post types are all supported) * Automatically disables page caching while previewing, so cached scheduled content is never served to regular visitors * Shows a banner in both wp-admin and the front end while the preview is active * REST API requests are excluded, to avoid unintentional exposure through headless setups #### About permissions * Viewing the preview and changing the plugin’s settings each use a separate permission check * Changing the settings always requires an Administrator (manage_options) * Who can view the preview is configurable from the settings screen: Administrators only, Editors and above, or Authors and above ## Скріншоти [⌊Settings screen (base date/time, preview permission, target post types)⌉⌊Settings screen (base date/time, preview permission, target post types)⌉[ Settings screen (base date/time, preview permission, target post types) [⌊The front-end banner shown while the preview is active⌉⌊The front-end banner shown while the preview is active⌉[ The front-end banner shown while the preview is active ## Встановлення 1. Upload the plugin files to `/wp-content/plugins/wst-date-simulator`, or install the plugin through the “Plugins > Add New” screen in WordPress. 2. Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” screen. 3. Go to the “Date Simulator” menu in wp-admin to set the base date/time, preview permission, and target post types. ## Часті питання ### How is this different from the WordPress core Preview button? The core Preview button only shows a single scheduled post on its own page. WST Date Simulator shows scheduled posts everywhere your theme normally lists them — homepage, archives, search results, widgets — not just the post itself. ### Can anyone see the preview? No. Only logged-in users who have the permission level chosen in the settings (Editors and above, by default) can see it. ### Does this change the actual post data? No. The post status in the database is never modified. It is only treated as “published” in memory while it’s being displayed; the real status stays `future` (WordPress’s internal name for “scheduled”). ### Does it work with pages and custom post types? Yes. The “Target post types” setting lets you choose which post types the preview applies to, individually. ## Відгуки Для цього плагіна немає відгуків. ## Учасники та розробники “WST Date Simulator” — проект з відкритим вихідним кодом.
