Single Site… nothing else out of the ordinary that I can think of. I didn’t check the debug logs, but after very very carefully reviewing the plugin notes/etc, I believe i may have accidentally caused my own issue. Perhaps a wording change on the interface or an alternate checkbox might keep others from having this problem. I believe that in the posts that didn’t expire, I had checked a category even though i had no memory of doing such. I found that the posts that didn’t expire had a category checked and those that did expire had no category.

I never checked a category listing, so not sure if a category check is default. My suggestion might be to add another checkbox that says expire post OR (and then the category listings) whereby checking the expire could uncheck all the ones below. If that had been the case I don’t think i would have missed it.

In the meantime i disabled the “expire to category” option so now there is just a date. In doing so i might have unintentionally revealed a bug or other oddity. If the option to default expiration is set to on for new posts, if i have the checkbox UNCHECKED to expire, when i save the post, the box is checked with the current date/time and the post is immediately expired. Just wouldn’t expect having the checkbox UNCHECKED to expire the post AFTER i click update. That may be a seperate issue, so feel free to move/copy this post to another category/etc.
