Post Expiration Date

This is a free, lightweight plugin designed to make WordPress posts expire at a set time, on a given date. This was done in the simplest, most expedient manner possible so conflicts should be minimal. Dependencies are minimal as well. WP Cron is not used or required. You can choose from a JQuery datetime picker or the browser’s native option.

How it works: You can set an expiration date (an expiry) for a post by selecting the date and time. This uses local time, not GMT, UTC, etc. When the expiration date and time have been passed the post will be moved from Published to Draft status. Picking a date/time is optional — not all posts require an expiry.

Post Expiration Date plugin is ideal for use with coupons, deals, sales, and any other events where would would want the corresponding WordPress post to be hidden (or in some way changed) at a scheduled time.
