What It Does

The Timed Content plugin allows users to specify that a portion of a Page or Post should appear or disappear based on given time characteristics. You can make portions of a Post or Page visible at certain dates and times, and even set up a schedule.

This plugin adds a client-side shortcode for marking content to appear or disappear after a given time interval, with a fade effect included. Additionally, it provides server-side shortcodes to ensure content is only visible during specified date/time intervals, offering a secure method of hiding content.

A TinyMCE dialog is included to help users build the shortcodes easily. The plugin is designed to enhance user engagement by allowing dynamic content visibility based on time.

FAQ

Since it makes no sense to get all values of the past, the projected dates/times will not display all available dates but will limit the start date to the current date minus a certain value depending on the interval.

For hourly intervals: start at current date minus 1 day
For daily intervals: start at current date minus 7 days
For weekly intervals: start at current date minus 21 days
For monthly intervals: start at current date minus 80 days
For yearly intervals: start at current date minus 380 days

Example: you set a rule to start on January 1, 2013 with daily repetetion. To get all the possible dates for that rule until today and a few weeks in the future this would mean to calculate more than ten(!) years or 3650 values until today. But most likely you don’t want to see the dates from 10 years ago but the values how they will be now and some repetitions into the future.
