I want to use this to delete both posts and the images that are included in that post. I'm not sure if WordPress gives this level of granularity but if it was possible that would be fantastic.

The 410 (Gone) status code SHOULD be used if the server knows, through some internally configurable mechanism, that an old resource is permanently unavailable and has no forwarding address.

This would be the correct procedure for SEO purposes, rather than returning a 404 error code.

be able to auto expire (by category?) posts from the home page but still be available on site via category searches.

Instead of Wednesday May 29th, 2013 10:42pm (let's say), could you make it 3 days 5 hours, 3 minutes until post expires? (think daily deals timers).
Cheers, good jobs with the plugin

I hold current articles on the front page with the sticky tag and would like to remove it at a certain point in time.

change multiple entries in bulk edit and/or have a quick edit possibility in the columns view of entries - esp. useful for autoblogs

Of the 7 custom post types I'm using on this site only one should have the option to be expired. I'd like a filter to control which CPTs show the Expirator metabox.

Bonus points for adding a UI to control which CPTs it shows up on.

Currently, when you have "Auto-Enable" turned on in the general plug-in settings, when users begins to create a new post, they have the ability to turn off the expirator.

It would be great if you could limit this option to certain users or roles, so they don't have the ability to remove the expirator from their new post.

Only should administrators and other granted roles should have the ability to alter these settings.

Please make your plugin nearly perfect by
1-Adding "EXPIRED" or any other custom word in Post title or heading after post exipre.For example, after post expiration change title from " Get 50% discount on Plugin" to "Get 50% discount on Plugin-EXPIRED"
2-After post expiration, cahnge footer from "Post expires at 10:38am on Sunday September 29th, 2013" to "Post has been EXPIRED at 10:38am on Sunday September 29th, 2013"
Both things will improve the quality of contents and less annoy the visitors.
Thanks

First of all thx for gr8 plugin!
Options to set default time for post expiration (to 23:59 or any other time and disable time from posts edit screen) so users would just have to specify date (of event) would be a great feature.

To make it possible for the community to contribute go with GitHub so we can send you pull requests.

I would love to contribute to the development just give us the easy way for you and us.

I suggest that after expiration a post's content would be striked, instead of deleting the entire post, thus getting less 404s.

Really wish the plugin have an error checking if when the expiration date is after the post schedule indicated by the user.

I need to read an expiration date or number from a custom post type

Hi there,
I have a couple of short stories. I only want 3 of them online at the same time. So I'd like to put a start and end-date to that post and need an option to repeat that every 5 weeks or so
