    Firstly many thanks for a great plugin!

    This is more of a feature idea/request rather than a support issue. With the expiry date on ads, would it be possible to have the ad expiry date show up in the admin column so you could order it and see which one’s have expired, or alternatively have all ads that have expired moved to a separate area/link so you can see them at a glance.

    The other thought was adding the time to the expiry as well.

    Thanks again, appreciate the plugin and the work you’ve already done. It’s really very helpful.

    Hi,
    thank you for your suggestions.

    I have thought about your first idea as well.
    I find having an extra column with just the expiry date (only then one can sort the column by it) to bee too much, especially since many people wouldn’t need it.
    It might be possible to place some filter options above the table. Since I like to work with WordPress features, moving an expired ad to the trash or giving it the “pending” state would be one of my first choices. What do you think?

    Adding the time for the expiry date is already on one of my todo lists.

    I think your idea is absolutely fine, it’s just some way of being able to isolate them. Hope you don’t mind the input, as I said previously appreciative of you offering this plugin in the first place!

    I am very grateful for the input, because there are still many things I probably didn’t think about and getting your feedback helps a lot.

    Thanks

    No worries! Out of interest could you direct me to where the code is in the plugin for the date? Thanks again.

    I am not sure what you want to change, but pleaes check these files

    * admin/class-advanced-ads-admin.php => function add_submit_box_meta()
    * admin/views/ad-submitbox-meta.php

    There you will find the setup and view of the field.
