There is a “Post Expirator” menu item under settings.
Hi man,
Thanks for the fast reply, then it must be a bug of some sort i’m having…
Since in my settings i cannot see any “Post Expirator” menu, i’ve fixed the date issue by converting it in PHP to the format for my countdown timer (pic: http://grab.by/ksDe ).
Only bug i found in version 2.0 was if i set the time on 9am for example on submit it changed it to 10am, always one hour later then i selected. Also yesterday it auto set the timer on submit whatever hour i entered to 9pm, but i cannot duplicate it 🙁
I’ve implemented the 2.0 beta version right now, because i couldn’t set “set to draft” in the 1.x.x version (since i cannot acces settings menu), i’ll update it when it goes live 😉
Keep up the good work!
Greetings,
Stephen
What happens if you try loading this URL directly? /wp-admin/options-general.php?page=post-expirator.php
As for the timezone – I spent alot of time testing configurations and DST settings, so I’m surprised your seeing this. What is your wordpress and server/php timezone set to?
This happens: http://grab.by/ksTU it says: ‘You don’t have suficient permissions to acces this page’, i’m on the administrator account…
La hora UTC es 06-03-2013 12:40 La hora local es 06-03-2013 13:40
It’s set on Madrid timezone
The time bug only occurs on 2.0, it works just fine on 1.6 😉
You must be running multisite – I just made a change in the dev version that fixes the setting screen.
Do you actually know what the server time is? Are you hosting your own or using a provider? The above is just what wordpress is reporting.
It works! I can enter the settings now 😉
The server is local so the timesettings are:
date/time support enabled
“Olson” Timezone Database Version 2012.10
Timezone Database internal
Default timezone Europe/Stockholm
Directive Local Value Master Value
date.default_latitude 31.7667 31.7667
date.default_longitude 35.2333 35.2333
date.sunrise_zenith 90.583333 90.583333
date.sunset_zenith 90.583333 90.583333
date.timezone Europe/Berlin Europe/Berlin
It think the bug occurs when submiting the form it does +1 on the hour 😉
Thanks for all the help!

I’m having trouble trying to reproduce this issue. Can you give me an exact example of when this happens? The exact date/time/etc that you are using to set the expired post?
I used the date of yesterday, and 10 o’clock in the morning as hour 🙂
I tried replicating this with your timezones and times on my dev server, but i can’t get the issue to reappear :/ .. are you testing on a development system or is there any way I could see this on your system?
Hey man,
Sorry, can’t grand you acces to the server, due to it’s a commercial project and i’m just an intern, and they won’t let me put the project on my own server for testing purposes :p
I’m using atm Mamp as local server… so maybe that’s it.
I’ve installed a version of WordPress on my server and configured your plugin and i cannot seem to duplicate it…
So it’s maybe localhost related, if they give me green light to deploy everything on their servers, then i’ll test it over there 🙂 as of now i’ll consider this case solved.
Fair enough – works for me!
