This WordPress plug-in isn’t for everyone, but it is a great add-on for people looking for this kind of functionality. Normally, when you schedule blog posts for future publishing (“time-stamp”), these blog posts are completely hidden from the public eye until your chosen publishing date and time. What if you want to give them a sneak peek?

To accommodate this very specific need, the WP-Comsoon plug-in was created. In short, it allows you to display the titles of upcoming scheduled posts without actually revealing the posts themselves. It can be inserted in your sidebar as a widget.

Using the configuration panel after installation, you can adjust WP-Comsoon to suit your particularly preferences. This includes defining a custom message if no posts are scheduled, defining how many posts are shown in the widget, and determining whether or not the scheduled date/time is shown along with the post title.
