1) There are some other features like this already requested – see http://postexpirator.uservoice.com
2) How are you expiring? If you expire to a different category, the post would still be live.
I’m torn on how to approach this. My goal has always been to have the plugin clean up after itself if someone chooses to deactivate it, which is why you are seeing the current behavior. I think it is best to add this as a feature request: http://postexpirator.uservoice.com
What do you mean by setting a post manually to a category the cron job needs to be updated. Can you give me some more information or step by step to reproduce?
I apologize – I must have misread this the first go around. Since WP does not do categories for pages out of the box, the plugin was coded the same way. What your seeing is an oversight on my part as the category options should not be appearing there.

This is no longer accurate. The current version schedules a cron event for each post, so just setting the meta value will not do anything.
That will never work. With version 2.0, the logic changed on how the plugin works. It now schedules a unique cron event for each post as needed to save on system resources. Just setting the meta will no longer do the trick
Any other plugins you have a that maybe acting up? Thats the first i’ve heard of this issue
Yes – that is one of the options to remove a category on expiration
It sounds like there is something wrong with your core wordpress installation.
add_action is a core wordpress function – so if that’s not running there must be a much larger issue on your end.
I’ve made some adjustments in the development version that will be in the next release.
I do get the idea – i’m just wondering why you have the need to deactivate and reactivate the plugin?
Thanks for the information – this will help me figure this out hopefully!
I cannot reproduce this issue … is this on linux or windows? single install or multi site?
what is the timezone of your server/php install?
Are you willing to change your timezone to a timezone string (instead of UTC -7) and see if the issue is still there?
Is your timezone set correctly for the wordpress install?
