I have installed the plugin local on my laptop and it works very good. Now i have done the same on the server where my website is hosted but it does not work. Can somebody help me?

The only problem is that, after the date and time i entered in the post expirator, the post is always there on the website. But on the localhost, it works very well. * [Aaron Axelsen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/axelseaa/) * (@axelseaa) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-does-not-work-on-my-server/#post-3898148) * This is likely caused by wp-cron being disabled on your webhost.

I have enabled debugging in the plugin. What do you mean with “post debugging log after you have scheduled a post to expire” ? * Thanks again * [Aaron Axelsen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/axelseaa/) * (@axelseaa) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-does-not-work-on-my-server/#post-3898315) * After debugging is enabled, the post expirator plugin will log any attempts to schedule and expire posts. So if you can make a few new posts, and set them to expire then we can see if there is anything in the logs that might help diagnose the problem. * Thread Starter [covoiturage](https://wordpress.org/support/users/covoiturage/) * (@covoiturage) * [12 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-does-not-work-on-my-server/#post-3898316) * Hello, * thanks for replying. now, i understand what you mean.
