By default, Hugo excludes expired pages when building your site. To include expired pages, use the `--buildExpired` command line flag.
Set the expiry date in front matter:
{{< code-toggle file=content/news/article-1.md fm=true >}}
title = 'Article 1'
expiryDate = 2024-10-19T00:32:13-07:00
{{< /code-toggle >}}
The expiry date is a [time.Time] value. Format and localize the value with the [`time.Format`] function, or use it with any of the [time methods].
```go-html-template
{{ .ExpiryDate | time.Format ":date_medium" }} → Oct 19, 2024
```
In the example above we explicitly set the expiry date in front matter. With Hugo's default configuration, the `ExpiryDate` method returns the front matter value. This behavior is configurable, allowing you to set fallback values if the expiry date is not defined in front matter. See&nbsp;[details].
