According to query_posts you could do a filtering function like: function filter_where( $where=”” ) { // where post_date > today $where .= ” AND post_date >= ‘” . date(‘Y-m-d’) . “‘”; return $where; } add_filter( ‘posts_where’, ‘filter_where’ ); And then your query_posts doesn’t need to have post_status

In your template where you see the_title(), you will want to change it to something along the following: echo get_the_title() . ‘, ‘ . ‘posted by ‘ . get_the_author() . ‘, ‘ . human_time_diff( get_the_time( ‘U’ ), current_time( ‘timestamp’ ) ) . ‘ ago’; human_time_diff() is the one doing the part regarding your topic.
