    Hello, I’m currently running a website on EE2 v2.5.2. Now, it’s possible that this is a bug that has been corrected in newer versions but I’ll have to wait until summer to upgrade.

    To keep it brief, I created an ‘events’ channel which includes the expiry date field with the intention of removing an event from the website when the specified date is reached. So ideally, our client adds an event set to expire November 20, and with show_expired=“no” included in my code, the event will automatically remove itself from the page come that day.

    Instead, expired events remain on the page until I log in and either edit one random event entry (just open it and hit ‘submit’) or create a new entry. Then, all expired entries will remove themselves. Not exactly what I had in mind. So clearly show_expired=“no” is working, however it needs to be triggered that way.

    Is there a trick to it, or is it simply a bug that has been since corrected?
