post_password_expires

Filters the life span of the post password cookie.

Description

apply_filters( 'post_password_expires', (int) $time ); 

By default, the cookie expires 10 days from creation. To turn this into a session cookie, return 0.

Parameters (1)

0. $time (int) => time() + 10 * DAY_IN_SECONDS

The expiry time, as passed to setcookie(…).

Usage

To run the hook, copy the example below.

$time = apply_filters( 'post_password_expires', $time ); 
                         
if ( !empty( $time ) ) { 
                         
   // everything has led up to this point... 
                         
} 
  

The following example is for adding a hook callback.

// define the post_password_expires callback 
function filter_post_password_expires( $time ) { 
    // make filter magic happen here... 
    return $time; 
}; 
         
// add the filter 
add_filter( 'post_password_expires', 'filter_post_password_expires', 10, 1 ); 

To remove a hook callback, use the example below.

// remove the filter 
remove_filter( 'post_password_expires', 'filter_post_password_expires', 10, 1 );
