Expiring Posts

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 100% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Modeled within the band wp.org reports; tightens as we track daily.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   Ótimo plugin, obrigado. Gostaria de saber como faço habilitar em somente um tipo de postagem especifica? <font style=”vertical-align: inherit;”><font style=”vertical-align: inherit;”>Outra dúvida é como faço para já deixar demarcado o campo “nunca expira” como padrão ? Pois a expiração é um requisito da minha publicação e não pode ser esquecido(site de vagas de emprego).</font></font> Edit: Sou Leigo em programação mas a questão da checkbox já ficar desmarcada como padrão eu consegui resolver alterando a linha 342 para: <input type="checkbox" name="exp-enable" <?php checked( false ); ?> id="exp-enable" value="never" /> Agora só preciso fazer com que a expiração seja habilitada somente em uma tipo de postagem específica.

   Thank you for the plugin. Why it is not working when we choose a time like 10 min. later? Ex. Current time Nov 4 2019 15:00 and set to expire Nov 4 2019 15:10 Post expires right away without waiting for 10 min. 2. question is there a shortcode to echo expiration date on the post?
