Set A Date To Auto Open A Page?

Hi,

I'm unsure if this is already a feature that I am missing or if it's more appropriate to note as a feature request. Is there a way to set a page to auto open / publish on a set date? We set up our pages in advance and don't necessarily start selling anything until a few weeks or couple of months later. So like a gallery expiration date where it auto closes, a page open date saves a little time changing a page to publish instead of going into individual pages to manually change the status. 

Thanks for any help.

Set the page / gallery to Publish status and set the "date" option of the page to the date and time you want it to be available on the site. It will be in the Pending section and not shown on the site until that date and time.

I set a page to Publish and made the date 5/19/23. Saved the changes. I'm still able to go on as a customer using the password though. I'm not logged in as my admin account. Is there something else that I am missing?

The pending won't list it with other galleries on the site, but it can still be accessed via password. Just how it works.

Ok. Our customers use the page password at our main login screen. It appears what we are trying to attempt can be bypassed. We will have to stick with manually changing each page's open / close status then. Could be a nice QoL feature for a future update. Thanks for your feedback.
