Doesn’t seem to work

It appears to hide the post (somehow) with a status of “Published”. At the scheduled time for expiration, it changes the post to a status of “Draft” – from hidden to hidden. What’s the point?

I was trying to use this plugin to schedule a post for when to appear and then disappear. At first I thought it simply conflicted with built-in scheduler for when to appear. However, after trying for an hour to get this to work, I tried only scheduling the expiration. That’s when I discovered the post never shows when scheduled for expiration.
