Changelog
0.3
- (27 Nov 2012) Changed query so it no longer looks for future posts. Post dates greater than now will show up in the ticker.
- Added filter so announcement custom post types will have the post status of future changed to publish when created or updated. This allows non admin users to see the full text after clicking on the Read All link.
