As a standard feature I would like to have start/end dates for articles this is something I use quite a lot on my Joomla! setups.
For example;
Obviously I would like it to stop displaying automatically at the end of the month.
The default should be an empty date meaning not set or similar.
Thanks,
Larry
For example;
Join now and until the end of the month use coupon 'DISC' and receive $10 off your membership renewal.

Hi Larry,
Check out the special fieldnames here:
http://www.interactivetools.com/docs/cmsbuilder/special_fieldnames.html
You can create fields called: publishDate, removeDate, and neverRemove that do just that.
Hope that helps!

Gotcha this time [;)]
I know I can manually do it .. what I mean is that by default the system handles start/expiry it is something (about all I suppose) that comes in handy with J! when writing the article if I set the dates it just 'appens. If I do it manually and forget to add the check then it no gunna werk.

Hi Larry,
Would it work if neverRemove was checked by default?
If so you can set it to be checked by default in the field editor.
Let me know. Thanks! :)
