This plugin hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress.

Content Scheduler

Sharraxaad

Content Scheduler lets you control when content automatically expires, what to do with that content when it expires, and optionally provide notification to site contributors when the content expired.

Expiration Options

You control what happens upon expiration, including:

  • Change status to Pending, Draft, or Private
  • Add custom text to beginning or end of Post title
  • Unstick sticky Posts
  • Change Categories
  • Add and remove Tags
  • Move to the Trash

Notification Options

Content Scheduler can also notify you:

  • When expiration occurs

This reminder helps you keep content fresh, providing a reminder that content is out of date and needs updated or replaced. Content Scheduler lets you use notification tools without making any changes to content upon expiration, if you’d like.

Sawir-shaashado

  • The Content Scheduler options screen, where you determine what happens when the expiration date is reached.
  • Content Scheduler can optionally display the expiraton date and status in a column where your Posts and Pages are listed.
  • Scheduling content expiration uses a small, unobtrusive box on your Post and Pages edit screens.

Rakibaad

Extract the zip file and just drop the contents in the wp-content/plugins/ directory of your WordPress installation and then activate the Plugin from Plugins page.

SBI

Does Content Scheduler work with Network / Multisite installations?

Yes. As of Version 2.0.0, Content Scheduler should actually work on WordPress Network Sites.

My content doesn’t seem to be expiring. What should I do?
  1. Check the plugin setting’s “expiration period” and make sure you have waited at least that long before checking your content for expiration.

  2. Make sure you have actually visited a page on your website after the post’s expected expiration date. WordPress only fires off scheduled tasks when people actually visit the site.

  3. Try simply deactivating the plugin and reactivating it, then testing again.

  4. Other plugins that schedule events might handle scheduling incorrectly, thereby removing Content Scheduler’s expiration period. Again, deactivating and reactivating Content Scheduler should re-instate the scheduling.

Sometimes it works, more times it doesn't. Unpredictable.

This sadly appears not to be working. I set it to expire sticky status and to remove a tag, but neither of these things seem to be happening.
