   <?php query_posts( 'category_name=av' );
   if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

   Seen above is my current used code, showing one category using the query. Now my question is, how can I display the posts of one month?

   The alternate solution is to show the posts of the current month, but I want to go a little further. I want it to show the posts of the last 30 days, is this possible. If so, please tell me how! =]

   Thanks in advance,
   Flip

   Oke so I have `// Create a new filtering function that will add our where clause to the query
   function filter_where( $where = '' ) {
   // posts for March 1 to March 15, 2010
   $where .= " AND post_date >= '2010-03-01' AND post_date < '2010-03-16'";
   return $where;
   }
   add_filter( 'posts_where', 'filter_where' );

   $query = new WP_Query( $query_string );`

   I am not really an experienced filter user, should I add this function to my functions.php? And then how do I integrate it in my current query_posts?

   to show posts of the last 30 days:
   add this to functions.php of your theme:

   // Create a new filtering function that will add our where clause to the query
   function filter_where( $where = '' ) {
   	// posts in the last 30 days
   	$where .= " AND post_date > '" . date('Y-m-d', strtotime('-30 days')) . "'";
   	return $where;
   }

   then add this before your loop:

   add_filter( 'posts_where', 'filter_where' );
   
   query_posts( $query_string . '&category_name=av');

   to avoid having the 30-day-limit in all queries,
   after your loop, add:

   remove_filter( 'posts_where', 'filter_where' );
