  Wordpress Plugin Help

I'm tinkering around with POST-EXPIRE that allows you to set a date for an expirey of a Wordpress blog which is great for discount code sites, however I am trying to create a side bar widget thing that will show the next 5 expiring posts.

How hard is it to create such a sidebar gizmo as there doesn't seem to be one available.

POST-EXPIRE can be found here

I've just read on Paul Wright's blog that Joost de Valk has previously written some plugins. He might be worth contacting?

Hey Frostie,

Not sure about building a stand alone widget but I'm thinking that you could use an existing widget that allows you to run PHP such as PHP Exec. Then all you need to do is run a normal database/mysql query to pull out the last X posts and sort by expiry date?

Cheers
Paul
