    I’m wondering if anyone knows of a plugin or something to easily remove expired and/or closed entries from the database?

    Thanks

    The EE Edit Tab allows you to filter entries by Status, so it’s easy to find and delete closed entries with the toggle-box in the top right corner.

    To deal with the expired entries, if you don’t want to fiddle with SQL-queries you could install the Entry Expiration Notification extension and configure it to automatically close expired entries. Then proceed as outlined above.
