<p>WordPress lacks the ability to schedule content updates. Keeping your posts and pages up to date manually can often be a waste of valuable time, especially when you know you’ll need to update the same page again soon.</p>
<h3>Use Cases</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Promotions:</strong> Automatically publish versions of your pages that contain temporary promotions and schedule content updates that remove these promotions once they expire.</li>
<li><strong>Events:</strong> Schedule content updates for pages that list events. Automatically publish an updated version of the page after an event ends.</li>
<li><strong>SEO:</strong> Schedule series of content updates to keep your pages and publishing dates current and satisfy the freshness algorithm.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Key Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Updates page content and publishing date</li>
<li>Compatible with any post type</li>
<li>Compatible with Elementor and Oxygen Builder</li>
<li>Nested content updates (multiple updates of the same page scheduled in a row)</li>
<li>Lightweight code</li>
</ul>

Content Update Scheduler

I like my plugin.

Schedule content updates for any WordPress page or post type.

<p>When running wordpress for short term projects it can be useful to be able to count down to<br />
the end point of the project. And often you’ll want to close comments after that point.</p>
<p>This plugin will allow you to do that, providing a hook to close comments and a helper to<br />
show the countdown (in days) on your site.</p>
<p>To show the countdown add the following to your theme:</p>
<p>Please Note: This plugin is only tested on PHP5 and may not work on earlier versions.</p>
<h3>To Do</h3>
<ul>
<li>Add automated tests</li>
<li>Solicit user feedback on further options</li>
</ul>


WP Countdown To

Provide a count down to a set date and optionally close comments after that date.
