Avoid setting expiry date

Hi @lens2016,

If you go to Jobs ? Settings ? Job Submission (see https://wpjobmanager.com/document/setting-up-wp-job-manager/#section-2) in WP Job Manager and set the “Listing Duration” field to blank/nothing, then WP All Import won’t set an expiry date if you import jobs without one.

Let me know how it goes.

Thanks for your feedback. The problem is that I need the expiry date on jobs that are created manually. For jobs I import via feeds I do not want to set an expiry date as they expire once they are no longer in the feed. Means that some jobs from the feeds may not expire within a year while the manual entered job offers need to expire after 30 days.

Hey @lens2016,

In that case, you could set the expiry date to something in the future, like “2099-01-01” (just type that into the expiration date field). Or, you could use custom code and our API ( https://www.wpallimport.com/documentation/developers/action-reference/ ) to delete the expiration date as the listings are imported, e.g.:

add_action( 'pmxi_saved_post', 'my_delete_expiry', 10, 3 );

function my_delete_expiry( $id, $xml, $update ) {
	delete_post_meta( $id, '_job_expires' );	
}

Thanks :).
