 * Hi!
 * I am dealing with a problem and I need some help. I want users to change the 
   status of the posts from my website. When a user enters my website and reads 
   a post, he can change its status to ‘Draft’ so it does not appear again. I have
   thought of placing a button at the end of the post which changes the post status
   by clicking it. Any idea of how to do this?
 * Any other method or idea is more than welcome!´
 * Thanks 🙂

 * Hello,
 * I’m not sure if this plugin removes the post from the website after a user has
   read it but it allows users to mark posts as read which could be useful: [https://pippinsplugins.com/mark-as-read-for-wordpress/](https://pippinsplugins.com/mark-as-read-for-wordpress/).
