Expiring content from the Suggested Post Library removes posts from the end user Post Library. You can expire posts manually, or you can schedule posts to expire by a certain date. By default, all posts expire 90 days after they're released to the Post Library, but the default expiration time can be configured in the Suggested Content Expiration admin setting. Anytime an individual post is expired manually or scheduled to expire on a certain date, that expiration overrides the Suggested Content Expiration setting.
