WP Event Manager is a great plugin — but it does not automatically expire events when they end. This plugin fixes that.
Auto Expire Events for WP Event Manager sets the _event_expiry_date meta field to 1 day after each event’s _event_end_date. If that date has passed, the event is marked as expired.
You can also retroactively apply this logic to existing events via Tools > Fix Event Expiry Dates.
