When adding a link, can we use a specific date, like 25 Dec 2009, 7 May 2010, as the expiration instead of choosing the number of days from the drop down list? Additions > Add New Items > Add Link Expiration: 365, 335..... http://www.temp.wsnforum.com/linksadmindemo/sugge... I tried Settings > Switches > Incriment options When I uncheck this, the Expiration for Add Link is still the drop down list. http://www.temp.wsnforum.com/linksadmindemo/admin...

Perhaps because it is merely a demo? It certainly works on my sites and I just enter the expire date.

What format should I enter the date as? Where in the control panel can we see the list of expired listings? Edited by Success on 02/23/08 - 12:08 AM

I use 23 feb 2008 11.59pm I enter the time as the default is 12.00am and I don't want the link to expire until the END of that day TBH I'm not quite sure what situation you would want to see expired listings, but you can see all deleted links (unless they were hard deleted) in the admin > search

I want to use the directory for some coupons related listing. Sometimes the coupons are extended after the expiry date. So if I can see a list of expired listing, I can take action on them, like deleting or extending to a later date.

But so few are extended that I find it is quicker simply to reinput the offer.

So you just let the directory automatically delete the expired listing? Anyway to see the list of expired listings before we take action on them?

Lots of formats work: http://www.gnu.org/software/tar/manual/html_node/... I'll look into adding an option to view expired distinct from hidden/deleted. Edited by Paul on 02/23/08 - 03:30 AM
