This plugin adds functionality to expire a post on a given date.

This plugin currently only works with the classical editor.

It does this by adding a new “Expires” date field in the Publish box.

By default posts don’t expire, but you can add a date instead.

Once that date is reached, the post is marked as expired and is no longer visible to the end user.

Dev Notes

  • Dev occurs via https://github.com/ivankruchkoff/wp-expiring-posts
  • the new post status is expired
  • a filter called exp_disable_expiration_for_this_post exists to disable this feature on a per-post basis.
