The Scheduling End Date page field on a SharePoint Server 2007 Web site displays Immediately instead of Never

SYMPTOMS

Consider the following scenario. You create a new page layout for Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 by using Microsoft SharePoint Designer. The new page layout includes the Scheduling End Date page field and the Scheduling Start Date page field. You create a new Web page in SharePoint Server 2007, and then you add the new page layout to the Web page. In this scenario, the Scheduling End Date fields display Immediately instead of Never when you visit the Web site.

WORKAROUND

To work around this issue, you can enable content approval and item scheduling for the SharePoint Server Web site. To do this, follow these steps:
  1. Locate the SharePoint Server Web site on which you want to enable content approval and item scheduling.
  2. Click Site Actions, click Site Settings, and then click Modify Pages Library Settings.
  3. Under General Settings, click Versioning Settings.
  4. Click Yes next to Content Approval, and then click OK.
  5. Click Manage item scheduling.
  6. Click to enable the Enable scheduling of items in this list check box, and then click OK.

When you visit the SharePoint Server Web page, the Publication Start Date is displayed on the top of the page. You can click the start date next to Publication Start Date to modify the schedule.

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry edits), please consult a professional.
