  • Hey RD101,

    as you already have a plugin to set the date and move posts to a different category, I do not quite see what ACF is supposed to accomplish here.
    In order to change the sorting on the blog page, you have to modify the main query. A quick search did not reveal any plugins to that end, so it seems you will not get around using PHP to hook into it. The plugin defines a meta key _expiration-date that can be used for sorting (cf. https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/post-expirator/trunk/post-expirator.php#L78).

    What theme are you running, is it a so-called child-theme, and do you have any experience with PHP?
