Overview of Key Features
- Set Expiry Dates Directly in Post Editor
- When creating or editing a post, page, or any public custom post type, you can set an expiry date using a simple Date/Time picker (the “Expiry Settings” meta box).
- The plugin stores this date (converted to GMT) as post meta (
_content_expiry_date).
- Automatic Drafting of Expired Content
- Content marked as expired is automatically converted to “draft” status, removing it from public view.
- Works for All Public Post Types
- By default, the plugin adds the expiry date meta box to all post types registered with
'public' => true.
- This includes Pages, Posts, and any other custom post types you might have, like “Events” or “Products.”
- No Manual Clean-Up Required
- If you often publish time-sensitive content (events, promotions, announcements), you won’t need to remember to return later and manually remove or hide it.
- This saves time and ensures site visitors won’t see outdated information.
