Fancy I see you here. It seems we both are pondering the same thing. Well, I found a solution although I’m having problems with actual date it is interpreting (today is the 21st, but all of sudden it’s declaring itself as tomorrow 22nd).
Anyways, here is what I have to display posts published for “Today”:
// Capture today's date
$today = getdate();
// Set WP Query arguments
$argsT = array(
'cat'=>3,
'year'=>$today["year"],
'monthnum'=>$today["mon"],
'day'=>$today["mday"]
);
// Create a new instance of the object
$todayQuery = new WP_Query($argsT);
// Loop through posts published "Today"
<?php if ($todayQuery->have_posts()) : ?>
<?php while ($todayQuery->have_posts()) : $todayQuery->the_post(); ?>
<a href="<?php echo $link; ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
<?php endwhile; ?>
My only problem is the getdate() function is much faster than what the actual time is….not sure why but I’m still figuring that out.
