Hi all!

I am using  DNN Blog Module6.0 by Peter Donker. I have a post which is a kind of event (i.e. a kind of event-post). This post should have some date in the future. For example some conditions:

1) today 29 sept,

2) I want to announce a some meeting in the 5 oct.

3) I want the post with this meeting have published now

4) I want the post with this meeting will be bind to 5 oct in Calendar template, timeline, etc.

If I will make a post with date of publishing 5 oct, it will look fine in the calendar template, but it will be invisible in the list of posts today.

Decision: I want that posts with attribute ("published"=true) were published in spite of date of publishing. So I can make an "event-post", set  "published"=true, set "publish date"=event date, and...profit!

I understand that I should change default/list.html or default/post.html but I didn't understand how it work. More concretely I want to understand how can I filter collection of “Posts” which will be displayed in list.html.

 Can you help me?

The Blog Calender works as a Archive not as an Event Module.  So it could not work with what you want to do.  I would use the Event Module perhaps with an link to the blog post to consider your Needs.

So, if I understood you right, you offer to use another module - "Event module". It a decision, but I will have to keep two modules - Blog and Event, and there will be two different calenddars (one with events and another with blogs and articles). It will be very inconvinient...

All I need - the  make post visible right now when "published" attribute = True.

 Is it so difficult to make some modifications in code to make future posts visible today? It looks like there is some piece of code where you can delete some words and everything will work properly, isn't it?

Of course you can also change the source code if you are a developer.  But be Aware, that this is then a new module, and future Upgrades want to override your changes if you didn't rename the module and ist code Namespaces.
