Yes, it has a tag <txp:expires /> which clones <txp:posted /> in all aspects. Plus, there’s a conditional <txp:if_expires>, which checks for the presence of an expiry date to produce output depending on that fact.

Robert, this looks very interesting!… I’m really looking forward to it!
So what happens if an article is ‘expired’?
Does it change its status?
Can you provide us with a coupe of examples?

Re: Expiry Date for articles for basic event management?

Similar to ‘posted’, really. An article doesn’t change status when the ‘posted’ date is reached nor does it change status when the ‘expired’ date is reached. Both dates are just used as restrictions on which articles to show: show articles with status = live and posted < now and expired > now
