This module adds auto archiving functionality to selected content types. Archive status based on a new date field, not the "publishing date" and "time".

Requirements:

  1. DatePopup
  2. Views 3

After enabling the functionality at admin interface, when a user submit a node, there will be a new block, in which she/he can select the archiving options.

There are two options available:

  1. Manual archiving: there are only two radio button,labelled "Active" and "Archive"
    Screenshot: manual archiving
  2. Auto archiving: user must input a date, till the node must remain "Active". On the selected date, from the first run of cron, the node will became "Archive"

The module also supplies a bulk operation function for nodes, which could be triggered from the admin/content/node page.
