Show posts with same day and month as today only

Is there a way I can filter posts on one of the blocks on the homepage so only posts published with day and month matching today are shown? So if today is 29th August 2023, it will show posts from 29th August 2022, 29th August 2021, etc.

Thanks.

Hi,

I feel I must be doing something wrong. I have two test posts, one published 29th August 2023 and one published 29th August 2021. Neither are appearing. Could you clarify the instructions? There are two red arrows in the screenshot but I’m not sure how I achieve the result desired.

Thanks!

It seems the offset posts setting was on 20, so they weren’t showing. I’ve set it to 0 and now posts that were published today are shown. It still doesn’t show posts which have the same day and month, but different years. How can I fix that?

Hello!

Let the offset field be empty with no space, no value, and see the results: https://www.screencast.com/t/peVbVmUDE. Use the “random posts today” sort option.

Thank you!

Is there any way I can have an ‘on this day in history’ function, though? So it shows posts from 30 August 2021, 30 August 2019, etc.

Hello!

Unfortunately, no.

Thank you so much for your understanding!
