Override the postDate for entries so their URL works on the frontend? Is it possible to override/disregard the postDate for all entries in a section so that they are visible on the frontend even if this date is in the future?

I realise I could add a dedicated date field — but keen to avoid this if possible as the fields for this entry are already quite complicated!
You can add status(null) in your ElementQuery in order to fetch all items or you add status(['pending', 'enabled']) to pull all entries, that are not disabled and not expired
