## Përshkrim

WordPress already lets you preview a single scheduled post through the editor’s 
Preview button. But that only shows the post on its own — it doesn’t tell you how
your homepage, category archives, search results, or “Recent Posts” widgets will
look once the post actually goes live.

WST Date Simulator fills that gap. Set a base date and time, and scheduled posts
up to that point are shown as published — anywhere your theme normally lists them—
to logged-in users with a chosen permission level. No more guessing what the page
will look like until after it’s published.

#### Key features

 * Set a base date and time; scheduled posts up to that point are shown as published
 * Choose who can view the preview: Administrators only, Editors and above, or Authors
   and above
 * Choose which post types the preview applies to (posts, pages, and custom post
   types are all supported)
 * Automatically disables page caching while previewing, so cached scheduled content
   is never served to regular visitors
 * Shows a banner in both wp-admin and the front end while the preview is active
 * REST API requests are excluded, to avoid unintentional exposure through headless
   setups

#### About permissions

 * Viewing the preview and changing the plugin’s settings each use a separate permission
   check
 * Changing the settings always requires an Administrator (manage_options)
 * Who can view the preview is configurable from the settings screen: Administrators
   only, Editors and above, or Authors and above

## Instalim

 1. Upload the plugin files to `/wp-content/plugins/wst-date-simulator`, or install
    the plugin through the “Plugins > Add New” screen in WordPress.
 2. Activate the plugin through the “Plugins” screen.
 3. Go to the “Date Simulator” menu in wp-admin to set the base date/time, preview 
    permission, and target post types.

## PBR

### How is this different from the WordPress core Preview button?

The core Preview button only shows a single scheduled post on its own page. WST 
Date Simulator shows scheduled posts everywhere your theme normally lists them —
homepage, archives, search results, widgets — not just the post itself.

### Can anyone see the preview?

No. Only logged-in users who have the permission level chosen in the settings (Editors
and above, by default) can see it.

### Does this change the actual post data?

No. The post status in the database is never modified. It is only treated as “published”
in memory while it’s being displayed; the real status stays `future` (WordPress’s
internal name for “scheduled”).

### Does it work with pages and custom post types?

Yes. The “Target post types” setting lets you choose which post types the preview
applies to, individually.
