Developed to work with The Events Calendar 3.0, this plugin allows for expired events to be automatically vacuumed up rather than leaving them to clutter up your database.

  • Configurable: clean up events almost as soon as they have expired or enforce a buffer period of 1 week upto 6 months
  • Recurring events are intelligently curtailed (the expired instances will be removed, other events remain untouched)

By default, the plugin schedules clean-up tasks to run once a day and limits itself to handling a maximum of 100 events at any one time. This can be adjusted programmatically for special cases.
