Simple Request

[Knoman]

this should be simple for you guys.... but i'm not a php expert.

you see (right under the avatars) where it says Registered: (registration date). how would i change it from when a person registered to the number of days since he/she registered?

[Overgrow]

Didn't test this, may not work the first time :D

find in showthread:

$userjoindate=date($registereddateformat,$userinfo[joindate]+(($timeoffset+$bbtimezoneoffset)*3600));


change to:

$userjoindate=(($timenow - ($userinfo[joindate]+(($timeoffset+$bbtimezoneoffset)*3600))) / 86400)." days";

[Knoman]

cool.... thanks man. :)

[Knoman]

actually.... i cant find that in showthread.... are you sure it's there?

[Overgrow]

It may be slightly different depending on what version you are running. Just search for $userjoindate and that should be the only place you find it.

There was a mistake in that first code, instead replace it with:


$userjoindate=((time() -?($userinfo[joindate]+(($timeoffset+$bbtimezoneoffset)*3600)))?/?86400)."?days";


Still not tested though, just saw an error.

i'm using rc3 and i still cant find it.

[tubedogg]

try $post[joindate] instead ;)

[Overgrow]

Oops forgot my standard disclaimer:

I don't run 2.x, I doubt I will ever run 2.x, I just own the code for reference. Sorry, seems that variable changed in RC3 which I haven't downloaded yet.

thanks td

[Knoman]

thanks for the help..... but how would i use $post[joindate]

[Knoman]

never mind... i've found an alternative. i'v change in post bits

registered: $joindate.........

to

registered: $jointime

i then edited showthread from

$jointime = (time() - $post[joindate]) / 86400;

to

$jointime = round ((time() - $post[joindate]) / 86400, 0);
