You can write your query for listing scheduled posts as follow : You can see the details here $the_query = new WP_Query(array( ‘post_status’ => ‘future’, ‘posts_per_page’ => 3, ‘orderby’ => ‘date’, ‘order’ => ‘ASC’ )); To show the scheduled post on details page you should do something like this Add code to your theme’s functions.php … Read more
To use a different page’s content on the homepage based on a logged-in user’s role you can do this: In your functions.php file add this code: function wpse_273872_pre_get_posts( $query ) { if ( $query->is_main_query() && is_user_logged_in() ) { //work-around for using is_front_page() in pre_get_posts //known bug in WP tracked by https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/21790 $front_page_id = get_option(‘page_on_front’); $current_page_id … Read more
