time added to a date format

[carefree]

has anyone worked out how to get the time added to a date format

Shows minuets and hours but when its days changes to actual upload date

[grynmoors]

Are you talking about "uploaded yadda yadda days ago..." rather than 'uploaded on yadda yadda"?

[carefree]

No like this...

Added: 30seconds ago

Added: 30minuets ago

Added: 20 days ago

//Anything above 30 days will go to date format
Added: 1 may 2009

Ok, if I understand you correctly...

You want it to have the number of days and then when it reaches 30 days, it will go to date format?

I'll see what I can find if someone else doesn't post it first.

Figured it out

{insert name=time_range assign=rtime field=addtime IDFR=VID id=$video_id tbl=video}
{if $rtime eq || > 29}

{$show_content[i].adddate|date_format:"%d-%m-%Y"}

{else}

{$rtime}

{/if}

Also a way to get time added to display:

May 10, 2009

Anywhere in videos.tpl put:

 {php}
$new_date = $this->_tpl_vars['video_info'][$this->_sections['i']['index']]['adddate'];
echo date('F j, Y', strtotime($new_date)) ;
{/php}

Tada another nasty hack by me.. :wink:
