How to expire content (make content Inactive), but not have it deleted

When a piece of content is set to expire, it is not deleted from the website. Although the content is no longer updated, it is still active within the system, but no longer viewed by the world.

To set an expiry date, go to modify your content. Select the Options tab. In the Expiry Date field, select a date, and use the sliders at the bottom of the calendar to set a time. The expiry date must be in the future--even two minutes in the future is sufficient. When viewing your content in the content listings, it will be marked as Expired.

How to un-expire your content and make it active again

If you currently have content marked as expired and you want to reactivate it and use it again, find the content, click on Modify, OK to the message; Update & Approve.
