Join Date on Custom Template

[evenmonkeys]

I've read through a countless number of threads concerning this, but I am just not understanding how to do it. How would I get the correct join date to show up? It says 1139173588, and I can't get it to convert over.

Plugins / products only if possible. Please help. >_<;

Help meeeee.

I'm not an expert...but That is a unix timestamp.

Google "UNIX timestamp to System.DateTime" and you should find what you are looking for.

That's not going to help with with vBulletin though. Everything's done different within vBulletin. There's got to be an easy way to do this.

Use this:

PHP Code:

$joindate = vbdate($vbulletin->options['dateformat'], $unixtimestamp);

Hmmm... I still can't get it to work...

I'm using this to call for it: $bbuserinfo[joindate]
This is what I have in my plugin...

// JOIN DATE & POSTS PER DAY
$vbulletin->userinfo['datejoined'] = vbdate($vbulletin->options['registereddateformat'], $unixtimestamp);
$jointime = (TIMENOW - $vbulletin->userinfo['joindate']) / 86400;

How can I make it work? >_<

You have to change things to suit your needs...

The code below will work on any vbulletin .php file or hook location:

PHP Code:

$joindate = vbdate($vbulletin->options['dateformat'], $vbulletin->userinfo['joindate']);
$jointime = (TIMENOW - $vbulletin->userinfo['joindate']) / 86400;

I have no idea what I did... but I'm not going to touch it ever again. I got it working, but it was slightly different than what you gave me. In any case, I appreciate you pushing me in the right direction, Brad.
