Description
I was under the impression that setting the configuration variable 'request_public_after_due_days' would trigger a visibility change in the FoiRequest model. I don't see a Celery task nor a signal that would handle this case (and it doesn't seem that the function public_date is referenced anywhere).
Is there an implementation that has a background task / signal that would automatically search all FoiRequests that aren't visible to the public, look at its public date, then switch it to publicly visible or was this overlooked / taken out?
