| Feature | Details |
| Supported Elements | Points, Achievements, Ranks, and specific Requirements. |
| Time Units | Minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, and years. |
| Expiration Types |
Specific Date: A fixed calendar date. Relative Date: X time after the user earns the item. |
| Automation | Automatic removal/revocation of rewards once the timer hits zero. |
| Recalculation | Option to recalculate next-rank expiration if a previous rank is revoked. |
| Notification System | Built-in email triggers for “Before Expiry” and “At Expiry” events. |
Cron Integration: The plugin utilizes a cron event that typically runs every 5 minutes to check for expired items, ensuring high accuracy without overloading the server.
Display Logic:
Frontend: Automatically appends expiration dates to achievement/rank blocks and the “User Earnings” shortcode/widget.
Backend: Adds an “Expiration” column to the User Earnings menu and individual user profiles in the admin area.
Hooks & Filters: Developer-friendly architecture allows for custom triggers or modifications to the expiration logic via standard WordPress filters.
Multisite Support: Fully compatible with WordPress Multisite, supporting centralized data.
GDPR Ready: Does not store unnecessary personal data beyond what is required for the expiration logs.
To prevent logic conflicts, the plugin includes built-in safeguards:
If a user unlocks an achievement, any pending expirations on its individual steps are cancelled.
If a user reaches a new rank, the expiration on the previous rank is automatically cancelled.
