Do you have debugging enabled? It’s under the “Diagnostics” link on the settings page. If so, does it show any errors?
thanks for reply
I do not think there are errors

clear, however, that I do not have much experience with wp I’ve always used other cms
I am also having this issue. I attempted to test this plugin on my dev environment yesterday but to no avail. I set some expiration’s of posts all of which did not set said posts to ‘draft’.

Edit: My testing servers are xampp and linux (I tested on both and received the same result). WordPress and plugins: manual installation.
I would contact the plugin’s author for support on this. It seems like there are some issues they need to address.
I installed this plugin on a test development site, with a bunch of diagnostic error checking installed. After installing Post Expirator, there were many errors and warnings that showed up.
I think the support needed is beyond the scope of this forum, so contacting the developer may be the best bet.
