I wasn't entering the time properly at the end of it. I managed it with using a modified version of the code you guys provided here <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_post_dat" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_post_data</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gravity-forms-content-scheduler-auto-post-expiration#post-109076 Thu, 27 Dec 2012 10:46:53 +0000 Chris Hajer 109076@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I doubt that it is anything in the plugin blocking your entry. You just need to get the data in exactly the right format, with the exact meta key name. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gravity-forms-content-scheduler-auto-post-expiration#post-108764 Thu, 27 Dec 2012 01:15:08 +0000 jojobo 108764@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Ok, just a small update. I can get the "_cs-expire-schedule" radio button enabled by default without a problem.</p> <p>_cs-expire-date is being a pain. No method of dynamically populating it works (even if I reuse something I know works elsewhere on the form) but merge tags and default values will show up. </p> <p>I'm starting to think it's something in the coding of the plugin blocking the entry because unless I enter a default value or merge tag then it doesn't show up for the post meta of the database at all. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gravity-forms-content-scheduler-auto-post-expiration#post-108634 Wed, 26 Dec 2012 21:29:36 +0000 jojobo 108634@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hm. Sorta? </p> <p>Ok, when I check the post in the database it lists this:</p> <p>wpfc-post_expiration_date 12/23/2012</p> <p>which is correct and what I entered on the form front-end, so yeah, that part is working. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gravity-forms-content-scheduler-auto-post-expiration#post-108550 Wed, 26 Dec 2012 18:28:48 +0000 Chris Hajer 108550@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I don't have any experience with ACF. As long as the data is being stored properly in a custom field, I would not worry about the admin interface and meta box. That is just an interface to making the custom fields easier to use. Does the data exist in the database in the correct format, with the correct meta key name? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gravity-forms-content-scheduler-auto-post-expiration#post-108544 Wed, 26 Dec 2012 18:14:11 +0000 jojobo 108544@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Well, I have a question. I'm using ACF to create my fields. All of the other fields store the entered data in the appropriate MetaBox, but wpcf-post_expire doesn't (but it does show listed under the "custom fields" MetaBox. Is that due to it being a datepicker or is there something else going on here? </p> <p>Provided that doesn't mean something is screwy and it is in fact different because of being a date picker, then I need to figure out the last part which has nothing to do with your plugin so I can try to go bug someone else. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gravity-forms-content-scheduler-auto-post-expiration#post-108541 Wed, 26 Dec 2012 18:07:20 +0000 Chris Hajer 108541@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>OK. What sort of help do you need with that? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gravity-forms-content-scheduler-auto-post-expiration#post-108538 Wed, 26 Dec 2012 17:55:10 +0000 jojobo 108538@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hm, it's not. I'm rethinking my approach a bit and would rather avoid the plugin all together. Here's my goal:</p> <p>Custom date field "wpcf-post_expire". Once that date has passed then add the post_tag "expired" to the post. That's it. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gravity-forms-content-scheduler-auto-post-expiration#post-108533 Wed, 26 Dec 2012 17:30:18 +0000 Chris Hajer 108533@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Is _cs-expire-shcedule working correctly at this point? </p>
