 * I am exporting the data but it seems to hide dates that have passed. I need data
   for past dates to export as well so I can give my volunteers credit. Thank you!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fexporting-data-10%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * Please read the documentation here:
 * [Volunteer Sign Up Sheets documentation – Stephen Sherrard Plugins](https://stephensherrardplugins.com/docs/pta-volunteer-sign-up-sheets-documentation/)
 * You want to pay close attention to these two settings in the general settings,
   copied from the documentation:
    - **Show Expired Tasks?** — If you want to save signup info even after the dates
      have expired, check this box. This ONLY affects the signup lists on the ADMIN
      side. The public sign up sheets will never show tasks/signups that have expired.
    - **Automatically clear expired signups?** — Enables the hourly CRON function
      that checks for and deletes expired signups from the database. If you want
      to save your signup data after a task date has passed be sure to uncheck this
      and then check the above option to be able to view the expired tasks/signups
      on the admin side. If later on you want to manually delete all your expired
      signups, use the button on the CRON Functions page. For example, it is useful
      to clear all signups so that you can alter the dates on a sheet and reuse 
      it for the following school year.
