Scheduling a post or letting it expire
Prepare a post now and let it go online automatically, and disappear again when it is no longer relevant.
Scheduling
- Open or create the post.
- Go to the Settings tab and under Publish from enter the date and time when it should go online. Type the date as dd-mm-yyyy (e.g. 05-07-2027; the dashes are added automatically) and the time in the box next to it as hh:mm (e.g. 09:30), or click the calendar or clock icon to choose.
- If you like, enter under Remove after until when it should stay online.
- Click Save draft and then Publish at the top right.
The post will then only appear on your website at the chosen moment, and disappear automatically after the end date. The CMS checks this every 5 minutes, so it may be a few minutes later than the time you set.
Note: a scheduled post also needs to be published. Here, publishing means: ready for the website. The date determines when visitors see it.
After the end date
An expired post is no longer on your website, but it stays saved in the CMS. Want to show it again? Change the date under Remove after or clear the field, and publish.
