 * If you only add NOINDEX meta, without also removing the items from the sitemap,
   you’ll send confusing instructions to a search engine, so you have to do both.
   This is what I came up with. It seems to work.
 *     ```
       /* Modify the WP-SEO plugin's defaults */
       if ( is_plugin_active( 'wordpress-seo/wp-seo.php' ) ) {
   
       	/* add nofollow metatag to header of past events */
       	add_filter("wpseo_robots", function($robots) {
       	  if (! is_singular( 'exhibition' ) && tribe_is_past_event() == true) {
       	    return "noindex,follow";
       	  }
       	  return $robots;
       	});
   
          /* exclude past events from the sitemap */ 
       	function my_find_expired_events( $ids ) {
       		$args = array(
       			'post_type'     => 'tribe_events',
       			'nopaging'      => true,
       			'fields'        => 'ids',
       			'meta_query'    => array(
       				array(
       					'key'       => '_EventEndDate',
       					'value'     => date( 'Y-m-d H:i:s' ),
       					'compare'   => '<',
       					'type'      => 'DATETIME',
       				),
       			),
       		);
       		$expired_events = get_posts( $args );
       		$ids = array_merge( $ids, $expired_events );
       		$ids = array_map( 'absint', $ids );
       		$ids = array_unique( $ids );
       		return $ids;
       	}
       	add_filter( 'wpseo_exclude_from_sitemap_by_post_ids', 'my_find_expired_events' );
   
       }
       ```

 * Did you do step 3 in the installation steps? If so, did it save without an error?
   Getting that to happen helped for me.

 * That setting controls the content that appears in the RSS feed, not on the front-
   end of the website. The solution from [@crouchingbruin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/crouchingbruin/)
   seems the best way to go.

 * Some of the examples on that page demonstrate how to write the short-code, however
   the recurring payment example does not. Could that be revised? It may be useful
   to have that for each of the examples on that page.

 * I would also be curious to know whether this is possible. Ideally, it would be
   nice to have a recurring monthly or yearly option.

 * This should supported. Your other plugin supports this. Why do you have so many
   paypal plugins, anyway? If you combined them into one, it would be less confusing,
   and you would have a more powerful plugin.

 * It is entirely possible that the malware came into the theme’s files after it
   was installed or from another source than the original files. Have you checked
   a fresh download for the same malware code?
