 * The plugin has started expiring posts randomly. It unpublished several posts 
   today which were due to expire tomorrow. I have it sending an email and the time
   of the email does not correspond with the unpublished time.
    Some posts get unpublished
   and then the expiry time is set to Never. Some posts that were unpublished a 
   long time ago, we are receiving unpublished email notifications for now. I have
   rolled back to version 2.6.3 when the plugin was working correctly but there 
   still seems to be a problem – I’m unsure at this stage if it relates to new posts.
   The only change to the website I believe is the installation of WP Rocket – which
   I have since disabled.

 * Hi [@powerj9](https://wordpress.org/support/users/powerj9/)
 * We did not experience this issue and did not receive such a report recently. 
   I’m afraid that this issue is related to third-party plugin.
 * Try disabling the recent installed plugin and if the issue persists, try disabling
   one by one of your plugins.

 * This problem relates to Yoast Duplicate Post.
 * To replicate, install Yoast Duplicate Post. Clone a post that has already expired(
   ie at 9am) and change to expire at a future time (ie 10am). The post will give
   you an email notification immediately saying that the post has expired, but it
   won’t have – and then at 10am it doesn’t expire as would expect it to.

 * Thanks [@powerj9](https://wordpress.org/support/users/powerj9/).
 * That makes sense. We also run a plugin that is very similar to Yoast Duplicate
   Post: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/revisionary/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/revisionary/).
   When copying a post, it’s common to lose extra settings. Plugins such as Yoast
   Duplicate Post need to build in extra support for other plugins.
 * Yoast Duplicate Post would need to build support for PublishPress Future.
