• Component Tag Parameter: Ignore Inactive/Disabled items

Right, so you want to output items that are inactive (due to release/expiry dates):

So the parameter could look like:

{% component source: "My Module", ignoreInactive: "true", type: "module" %}

• false being the default (current behaviour - doesn’t output inactive items)
• true outputs inactive items with active items

ignoreInactive: "true|false"

From there you can use liquid to determine if an item is pre-release date or post-expiry date.
But I guess the parameter could be pushed further to include additional values like:

• pending outputs pre-release date items with active items
• expired outputs post-expiry date items with active items

ignoreInactive: "true|false|pending|expired"

The true|false option is probably sufficient, but just putting the idea out there

Similarly, a parameter to ignore ‘disabled’ items:

ignoreDisabled: "true|false"
