Embargo/Expiry Module

Overview

Based on the work by Marcus Nyeholt and Andrew Short for the Advanced Workflow module.

This module adds the ability to schedule publish and unpublish events at a certain date and time. It can be applied to different model classes, but is commonly used with SiteTree.

Features:

• Date and time picker (through SilverStripe CMS, where browsers support it)
• Publish "windows" by setting a publish date with a subsequent unpublish date
• Scheduled publication through queuedjobs
• Respects cascading publish through ownership relations
• Expiry unpublishes the page (leaves it in "draft" mode)
• Optionally lock editing while publication is scheduled
• Add status flags to pages in the tree
• Support for translations in silverstripe/fluent
