TL;DR

AI summary of the plugin's readme

This plugin is for WordPress site owners and administrators managing posts, pages, or custom post types that aren't meant to stay evergreen. It lets them archive content by hiding or removing it from the main loop, feed, or public view without deleting it, while optionally showing a label and outdated-content message.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about LH Archived Post Status

Actually, no, they are not the same thing. The Draft status is a "pre-published" status that is reserved for content that is still being worked on. You can still make changes to content marked as Draft, and you can preview your changes. The Private status is a special kind of published status. It means the content is only available to certain logged in users. The Archived post status, on the other hand, is meant to be a "post-published" status. Once a post has been set to Archived the content is either hidden entirely from non logged in viewers or removed from the front page and feed (but still available on singular pages). This behaviour is controlled in the settings screen.

Actually it does more! Unlike the other plugin content archived with this plugin can still be available to non logged in visitors (depends on plugin settings) and just removed from the front page and xml feeds (with a custom message can also be added to flag to visitors that the content is no longer up too date). Alternately it can be hidden entirely (to non logged in viewers).

Yes, there is nothing wrong with trashing old content. However it will be hidden from non logged in viewers.

This is what makes the Archived post status handy. You can unpublish content without having to delete it forever.

This not not part of my plugin per se but it is easily done. The easiest way would be to install a plugin that allows you to query by post_status eg: https://wordpress.org/plugins/display-posts-shortcode/ and input the shortcode with the post_status of archive:, eg [display-posts post_status=”archive”] If you want to customise the display that shortcode has plenty of arguments. There are also other shortcodes tha can do this (just search the repository).

The reason is that wordpress no longer recognises them, but they are still in the database. If you no longer need the plugin, just reactivate it, switch all the archived posts/pages/cpts to a native post status and THEN deactivate the plugin.

LH Archived Post Status, and all https://lhero.org plugins are made to WordPress standards. Therefore they should work with all well coded plugins and themes. However not all plugins and themes are well coded (and this includes many popular ones). If something does not work properly, firstly deactivate ALL other plugins and switch to one of the themes that come with core, e.g. twentyfifeen, twentysixteen etc. If the problem persists please leave a post in the support forum: https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/lh-archived-post-status/. I look there regularly and resolve most queries.

The issue is likely is likely with the other plugin, all my lugins follw standards but may do not. Feel free to add a support issue and if I identify a bug I will fix it. But if its not a bug and you need my plugin to be compatible with another then contact outside teh forum for an enahncement.

Yes the plugin defines the function archive_post_link which acts almost identically to the wordpress native function edit_post_link. That is clicking it will archive the relevant post is the current user has the edit_post capability. You can add it to you theme.
