 * Hi Shahadat,
 * I suggest another feature, implement a default duration for posts. This duration
   could be set in setting panel -> “Default post duration : X months”. When a default
   duration is set, when creating post, the deletion post field in meta box is already
   set to x months in future. (it can be adjust if necessary). This feature would
   be useful for sites with season rotation posts.
   Thanks for attention to this 
   suggest.
 * Best regards, Sylvain

 * Hi Sylvain,
 * Thanks for another great suggestion! A default post duration setting is a really
   smart idea, especially for sites with seasonal or rotating content. I like the
   idea of pre-filling the deletion date meta box automatically (while still letting
   it be adjusted per post) — that would save a lot of manual work.
 * I’ll be working on this feature in the near future.
 * Thanks again for taking the time to share your ideas — really helps shape the
   plugin’s direction!
 * Best regards,
   Shahadat
