Description
This plugin adds functionality to expire a post on a given date.
This plugin currently only works with the classical editor.
It does this by adding a new “Expires” date field in the Publish box.
By default posts don’t expire, but you can add a date instead.
Once that date is reached, the post is marked as expired and is no longer visible to the end user.

- the new post status is
