Description
Scheduled rules are only effective at blocking new connections, they do not terminate any active states.

System > Advanced, Misc tab, uncheck Schedule States, if that doesn't work, discuss on the forum for confirmation before opening a bug report.
Also you may need to use a pass rule with an opposite schedule not a block rule that otherwise passes.
I have been reading the forums for days to try and fix this issue that has seemingly gone on for years. This images show that I have the option unchecked and that the rules are as you say. This is why I have reported the bug. I have done my research.
Do you have a forum thread that you started to discuss the issue? Did others confirm the issue there? If you have a thread, post the link here. If not, please start one there. This ticket system is not intended to be a support system so we need to have things discussed and confirmed first.
I don't think this has ever worked properly when you schedule block rules. What works is blocking by default and scheduling allow rules. https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/3558 and literally tons of threads on the forums.
As shown in the screenshots, my rules are set in pairs, the allow rule with the schedule, then a block all for the same alias directly after it. Is that incorrect? I am on the forum and everyone is either ignoring it or has replied with the same thing, but I believe that's what I have done.
