  • Would be wonder to add custom post type support to this. It should read the registered custom post types on the site and allow you to set which ones expirator works for.

  • ditto.

    would be great to have this functionality out the box.

    Thank!

    FYI have managed to get this to work with custom post types.

    Add the following

    /**
     * Add's hooks to get the meta box added to custom page types
     */
    function expirationdate_meta_custom() {
     $custom_post_types = get_post_types();
     foreach ($custom_post_types as $t) {
      add_meta_box('expirationdatediv', __('Post Expirator'), 'expirationdate_meta_box', $t, 'advanced', 'high');
     }
    }

    This worked for me 🙂

    If the developer could add this to the next release, i would be happy 🙂

    Thanks,
    Matt

    Very nice…thanks!

    I don’t think the original developer is working on this anymore. Would be great to see someone new continue with the development.

    ‘IF’ I ever get time…

    I will look to make a branch of this plugin and add this new feature if the developer has truly given up 🙂

    …’IF’

    Best,
    Matt

    That would be great 🙂

    The solution above does not appear to work at all and I am getting a cannot redeclare function error

    Hi qwik3r,

    See below for my entire file. This worked for me.

    Best,
    Matt

    Ahh, that works. Very nice. Now for extra credit….

    Any way to have it work on specific custom post types (instead of all of them)? I’m using a custom post type to manage events, which are basically future posts. The problem is that while my page template for events is coded to display future posts and ignore published posts (good), the events automatically change to ‘publish’ed on the day they occur, therefore disappearing from view (bad). I’d like them to disappear the day after the publish date.

    Extra-extra credit:
    Any way to have this happen automatically, instead of having to set an expiration date at the creation of each post? This probably negates the need for a plugin, I realize

    Hi oneprcnt,

    I am mental busy at present, this is not something I would be able to help with 🙁

    Sorry Bud,
    Best,
    Matt

    After a lot of trial and error, I was able to solve my problem. The solution actually eliminated the need for a plug-in altogether.

    My dashboard breaks when I load this in. Any idea why?

    To add it for a specific post type:

    /**
     * Add's hooks to get the meta box added to custom page types
     */
    function expirationdate_meta_custom() {
     $custom_post_types = get_post_types();
     foreach ($custom_post_types as $t) {
      if ($t == 'events') { // or whatever your post type is called
        add_meta_box('expirationdatediv', __('Post Expirator'), 'expirationdate_meta_box', $t, 'advanced', 'high');
       }
      }
    }
