Problem: My CRED form is set to have a default expiration date, and users are able to override that default date using a field in the CRED form. If no override date is selected, expiration is happening before the expected default expiration date.

Solution: Ensure that the _cred_post_expiration_time meta key is not created for default expiration posts using the CRED API. Use conditional logic in your PHP code that prevents the update_post_meta function call for default values. Otherwise, a null value may be set for default expiration dates. When the CRON runs, this value may be interpreted as a trigger for expiration.
