This plugin provides a BBcode that hides or shows text depending on the date. If you are using the rich text (not WYSIWYG) editor you will be provided with two simple buttons that will insert the BBcode into your post.
The bbcode looks like: ‘[hide_until="Year-Month-Day Hour:Minute:Second".]Some text here[\hide_until]” or ‘[show_until="Year-Month-Day Hour:Minute:Second".]Some text here[\show_until]”.
A couple notes:
Installation:
- Upload to your plugins folder.
- Activate in the WP admin panel.
Some possible uses:
- Announce the results of a contest in the original post.
- Update the instructions for a plugin before you release it without having to re-edit the post later.
- Change the content of a time sensitive post.
- Write a post all at once, and then have the content released in parts without a lot of different posts.
- Write a post series with the future post option, and have links in all of the posts to the entire series without having dead links before future parts are released or have to edit posts later.
- Use the future post to add a new plugin and have the old post point to it at the right time.
- Easter eggs in your posts for early/late readers.
- A warning system for older posts

Thanks a lot I will take a look at this as I need to slow releases some content.
hi, on my site it doesnt work. are you sure, this is the right synthax? i think the right synthax should be something like that:
[hide_until="Year-Month-Day Hour:Minute:Second"]Some text here[/hide_until]
but also in that way, it doesnt work on my 2.7 wordpress. can you help me?
I’ve recently started a blog, the info you provide on this web site has helped me greatly. Thank you for all of your time & work.
