yes, I did look into calendar plug-ins but I really didn’t found exactly what I wanted.
Besides, right now my site is quite complicated and I want to keep it as simple as possible.
But the good news is that I am almost there!
I found a snippet that adds a “Date” custom field and then compares it to todays date and displays the posts that have an equal or greater date, so in other words upcoming events.

<?php
// Get today’s date in the right format
$todaysDate = date(‘m/d/Y’);
query_posts(‘showposts=10&meta_key=Date&meta_compare=<=&meta_value=’ . $todaysDate . ‘&orderby=meta_value&order=ASC’); ?>

The only problem is that I only want to show the posts that have a date equal to today’s date. So I tried this (but it is not working):

<?php
// Get today’s date in the right format
$todaysDate = date(‘m/d/Y’);
query_posts(‘showposts=10&meta_key=Date&meta_compare===&meta_value=’ . $todaysDate . ‘&orderby=meta_value&order=ASC’); ?>

As you might notice I am super new to php and would really appreciate some light to this issue.
