Hello
I have a custom Date Picker field.
I want to compare the custom field with the current date.
example:
$date_now = date('d/m/Y');
$date = get_field('scadenza');
if ($date < $date_now) {
$class_data = 'old-post';
}
else {
$class_data = 'new-post';
}
How can I fix it?
thank you
Hi Simov,
Find my code. Not sur it’s the cleanest way but it works.
I use ‘specials’ CPT and i want display them only is the date is valid.
<?php
$datedeb = get_field('debut-promo', false, false);
$datefin = get_field('fin-promo', false, false);
$today = strtotime(date('Ymd'));
$promoend = strtotime($datefin);
$datedeb = new DateTime($datedeb);
$datefin = new DateTime($datefin);
?>
<?php if ($promoend >=$today): ?>
// your code here
<?php endif; ?>
Hope that will help you.
cheers,
Pierre-Yves
Hi @simow,
@guinnessboy solution should work just fine.
Also you may conisdering filtering your posts by date.
$today = date(“Y-m-d”);
echo $today;
$args = array(
‘post_type’ => ‘post’,
‘posts_per_page’ => -1,
‘meta_key’ => ‘event_date’,
‘orderby’ => ‘meta_value’,
‘order’ => ‘ASC’,
‘meta_query’ => array(
array(
‘key’ => ‘event_date’,
‘value’ => $today,
‘type’ => ‘DATE’,
‘compare’ => ‘>’,
)
)
);
Hope this helps.
