You should really use timestamp. Makes it a lot easier to manipulate.
$cutoff = (cut off time you want it to stop);
$currenttime = time();
if ($cutoff > $currenttime) {
// comments are disabled
}
1) when you save news also save expire date in database.e.g.
<?
$expDate = date('Y-m-d H:i:s', mktime(date("H"), date("i"), date("s"), date("m") , date("d")+7, date("Y"))); // expire after 7days
?>
2) where ever you are showing news in select query filter expire date for fetching news from db.e.g.
<?
$currDate = date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
$sql ="select * from news where expDate<='".$currDate."'";
?>
