Set unpublish data progamaticly

    Hi,

    I am using WPallimport to import posts.
    I have a the following question.

    After WPallimport imports a post I call a function to get the post date and a certain date. I want to set that date as the expiry date for that post in publishpress.

    So my function will kind of look like this; 

    function my_saved_post( $post_id ) {
   $date = get_the_time('Y-m-d', $post_id); // The publish date is set in the feature and post are already published. We use this date for events that happen in the feature
   $depublishtype = 'draft'; 

    Publish Press function to set the date( $post_id, $depublishtype );

    }

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

    So the variable $date that I am retrieving is an date in the feature. When we reach the day of the event it should be unpublished. That’s why I need a function to set it like this.

    Which of your functions do i need to call?

    The function postexpirator_schedule_event is the one that will schedule the expiration of the post, unpublishing it as draft on the specified date

    So it should be something like this

    <?php

function my_saved_post($post_id)
{
    $timestamp = get_the_time(
        'U',
        $post_id
    ); // The publish date is set in the feature and post are already published. We use this date for events that happen in the feature

    $opts = [
        'expireType' => 'draft',
        'enabled' => true,
    ];

    postexpirator_schedule_event($post_id, $timestamp, $opts);
}

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

    Note: We changed the date format to “U” on your code snippet
