This plugin allows you to set expiry dates for user logins. You can set a user to:
<ul>
<li>Never expire (default)</li>
<li>Expire in X days, weeks, moths or years</li>
<li>Expire on a specific date</li>
</ul>
When a user expires you can:
<ul>
<li>Change the role of that user</li>
<li>Replace the user’s password with a randomly generated one</li>
<li>Send an email notification to the user</li>
<li>Send an email notification to the site administrator</li>
<li>Remove expiry details and allow user to continue to login</li>
<li>Perform you own actions using an <a href="https://github.com/benhuson/expire-users/wiki/expire_users_expired" rel="nofollow ugc"><code>expire_users_expired</code></a> hook</li>
</ul>
You can automatically assign expiry details to users who sign up via the register form.
The email notification messages can be configured in the admin settings.
