Thank you.
I have an idea for this plug-in.
When I using MovableType,
I used combi of MTOnThisDay and MTCollect.
It solves to display the entry list with its img thumbnail.
Do you solve this idea?

i was wondering if this plugin is capable of displaying one post every day on the front page. like, every june 16th it will display the post from june 16th on the homepage without having to do anything. basically to have 365 posts that will rotate on the “home page”

Version 1.4 has been released

An option has been added to hide password protected posts (they were hidden by default before). Non-published posts no longer show up in the list. A ‘Load Default Options’ button has also been added to the options page.

This latest version has been tested with WordPress 2.3, and will still work in previous versions as well.

could you please add an option (or set it default) to list only “published” post ? It shows all posts currently, including draft …

Hi! Thanks!

Is it possible with this plugin, to show: not posts from the “exact” day of a previous year, but instead show the “most recent post to this day each year-previous”. In other words, the whole week 1 year ago, the whole week 2 years ago, ec.

For example, today is May 22, 2007. I want to show posts from May 17-22, 2006+2005+2004+2003.

Hi, just changed to use latest v1.2. I commented off line 222 add_filter(’the_content’, ‘ddtd_generate’); to customize the position where DD-THIS-DAY shows posts. But the change breaks wordpress. When I activated the plugin, WordPress reported an error but the plugin was activated, but from now on my webpage layout was broken. It seems some extra char is inserted. Can you check this? Thanks.
I’m using latest WordPress v2.1.3.

ijliao: Because of the way the database was changed in WordPress 2.1 - I do not like it either It makes it a hassle.

why remove “post_status = ‘publish’” from your sql query ?

Norm: This plugin lists the other posts on the same day as the current post. This is why it can only work on the single post page. It would not know what post to check for on the index, or archives, etc.. pages.

the plugin works great but only seems to work on the posts permalink page, not on the main page of the blog. Is it supposed to work this way? Let me know if you have any ideas on how to fix this.
Thanks!
