 * Hello, this plugin is great and does 99% of what I need. 🙂 However, I’m trying
   to use your filter in the functions.php file to show only future posts and when
   I do that, it shows nothing at all. Any thoughts on this?
 *     ```
       add_filter('dd_carousel_filter_query_args', 'filter_carousel', 10, 2);
       function filter_carousel($args, $carouselID){
           if ($carouselID == 9879){
           $args = array(
               'post_status' => 'future'
               );
           return $args;
           }
       }
       ```

 * Hi Joelle.
 * Please download the updated plugin. This should fix your issue.

 * Hi there. 🙂 Thanks for looking at that so quickly. I ran your upgrade, but nothing
   has changed. It still shows me only published posts. Is there an option that 
   can be worked into the settings, maybe? like a checkbox option or something so
   people can say “show future, published” or “future” only or whatever? Or maybe
   I’m just doing something wrong, but I can’t figure out how to get it to show 
   me the future posts other than the filter you posted before.

 * It does work for me. Maybe you’re doing something wrong? If you’re not logged
   in though, how would a user see the future posts? Either way, the carousel item
   does show, but only a logged in user with view other’s posts would be able to
   see the actual post.
 * Here’s a working version: [https://www.duckdiverllc.com/carousel-test/](https://www.duckdiverllc.com/carousel-test/)
 *     ```
       add_filter('dd_carousel_filter_query_args', 'filter_carousel', 10, 2);
       function filter_carousel($args, $carouselID){
           if ($carouselID == 2139){
           $args = array(
               'post_status' => 'future'
               );
           return $args;
           }
       }
       ```

 * Hmmm… I just copied your snippet posted above and changed it for my carousel 
   and still, it shows nothing. If I remove the snippet, it totally shows all published
   posts. Do I need to check something in the settings? I currently have it set 
   to show latest posts — should I select something else?
 * Lots of sites use future posts to show calendars and they’re not logged in. I
   am logged in and I still don’t see it. We’re showing future posts already on 
   the site using other snippets and plugins. It’s possible it’s a conflict, but
   I can’t imagine with what, we’re just calling a basic query for future posts 
   only. I can email you the link if you want, but you won’t see it. haha!

 * Ah! I needed to set the post_type because it’s not the default. It’s a CPT. That
   worked! Another snippet I’ve got makes it display the nice URL and to everyone,
   regardless of log-in status, so I think were good!
 * Thank you so much for looking at this for me. 🙂
