Simple Post Expiration

A simple plugin that allows you to set an expiration date on posts. Once a post is expired, “Expired” will be prefixed to the post title.

You can show the expiration status of a post using the [expires] short code.

The [expires] short code accepts 5 optional parameters:

• expires_on – The text to be shown when a post has not yet expired. Default: This item expires on: %s

• expired – The text to be shown when a post is expired. Default: This item expired on: %s

• date_format – The format the expiration date should be displayed in

• class – The class or classes given to the DIV element

• id – The ID given to the DIV element

The %s will be replaced with the expiration date.
