I'd like the ability to automatically unset the 'Promoted to front page' flag on a specified date, as well as unsetting the 'Published' flag on another specified date.

Many of the articles on the site I run are manually submitted by members of our club. All articles are categorized and published to a 'View' page. Some of those articles are also promoted to the front page for a short duration of time. It would be nice not to have to worry about either of those 'unpublish' dates.

Example article: 'Pumas win soccer tournament'. This would be categorized under 'Team News' and would stay on the 'Team News' view for maybe a year. I'd also like to publish it to the front page for a few weeks.

Hi,

I'm wondering if this was ever addressed. Node Expire is a great little module and I'm sure this additional feature would put it over the top for many people.

I'm sorry, but I have not had time to dedicate to this project. I will eventually need to add this functionality and upgrade it for Drupal 6 as well as the other recommendations, but at this point I have no time.

Sorry

Andrew,

i like this idea, thats why im sending this discussion to http://drupal.org/node/207203, which proposes to integrate this module to Action/Trigger modules. It would be possible to perform several other actions with nodes using this.

regards,

massa
