Description

Timed Visibility Block is a powerful wrapper block for the Block Editor (Gutenberg) that allows you to schedule when content is shown or hidden based on various time-based rules.

Key Features:
– Date-Time Range Visibility: Show or hide content between a start and end date-time.
– Daily Schedule Mode: Repeat visibility daily between a set time range (e.g., from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM every day).
– Show/Hide Mode: Decide whether to show or hide content during the selected schedule (inverted logic support).
– Fallback Message: Optionally display a custom message (e.g., “This content is no longer available”) when the content is hidden.
– No Output on Expiry: When hidden, content is not rendered at all, keeping the HTML clean and optimized.

  1. Upload the plugin files to the /wp-content/plugins/timed-visibility-block directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
  2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress

Can I put any kind of block inside the Timed Visibility Block?

Yes, this block is a wrapper block that supports nesting any type of blocks inside.

What happens to the content when it’s hidden? Is it just visually hidden or completely removed?

The content is completely removed from the front-end HTML and will not be rendered, ensuring it’s not visible or accessible.

Can I show a fallback message instead of hiding the content completely?

Yes, you can set a custom fallback message to display in place of the content when it’s hidden.

What time zone does the scheduling use?

The scheduling uses the WordPress site’s configured time zone.

Does exactly what it should! Excellent!

I was searching for a means to show different content after a certain date & time. on specific pages. I tried the "plan feature" built in WordPress, but it hides the complete page as long as the given date & time is not reached. Then I found "content update scheduler" but never managed to get it doing what it should.

Finally I found this tiny pluginn which worked immediately as I intended.
Thank you
