Expiration date can be removed or rescheduled at any time. Post expire date for Gutenberg uses wp-cron to schedule the single event, please be sure you have wp-cron active on your installation. You can print the expiration date and time inside a post, using the shortcode [expiration_datetime] inside your post. ## Screenshots * [[ * Sidebar ## Installation 1. Upload the ‘post-expire-date-sidebar’ folder to the ‘/wp-content/plugins/’ directory. 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress 3. Find the sidebar on your Gutenberg block editor ## FAQ ### Does it work only on Gutenberg block editor? Yes, this plugin was specifically made to add a sidebar in block editor. ### Why my post did not expire? It could be for a couple of reason: first you don’t have wp-cron running, please check your wp-cron is running (there are many plugins, like WP-Cron Status Checker); second, the way wp-cron is triggered is by site visit, scheduled events runs when the date they are scheduled is passed AND someone visit the site ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/07e8745ea4b1f6758fe06e9f0bff3aea09825c8da02d06fef5082d875d94a763? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Works great for posts, but…](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-great-for-posts-but/)󠁿 [yositsitsu](https://profiles.wordpress.org/yositsitsu/) August 21, 2020 1 reply Would be great to have pages supported as well!
