    using this filter

    add_filter( 'posts_where', 'filter_where' );

$thisdate = the_date(Y-m-d,'','',false);

function filter_where($where = '') {
	$thisdate = the_date(Y-m-d,'','',false);
    $where .= " AND post_date >= '$thisdate'";
    return $where;
}

    while in a loop of a post….how can i pass the variable $thisdate into the function?

    i tried setting $thisdate to global…no luck…im stumped i dont really understand

    Filter hook functions only get what the originating apply_filters() function decides to pass to it, you can’t add extra parameters.

    Not sure why the global approach didn’t work for you.

    the global approach WORKED

    i was just a dumb ass and used it outside the function instead of within
