Zodiac Sign based on the date

@roberton1973

It’s not clear how you have setup your meta_key “sign”.

I used the “birth_date” meta_key and made a shortcode “[um_user_zodiac]” for the zodiac display and changed the decoding of the date in your function as my “birth_date” meta_value is YYYY/MM/DD

add_shortcode( 'um_user_zodiac', 'um_user_zodiac' );

function um_user_zodiac() {
	
    um_fetch_user( um_profile_id() );
 
    return segno_zodiacale( um_user( 'birth_date' ));
}

function segno_zodiacale($data){

    list($anno,$mese,$giorno) = explode('/',$data);
    
    if(($mese==1 && $giorno>20)||($mese==2 && $giorno<20)){
    return 'Acquario';
    }else if(
    ($mese==2 && $giorno>18 )||($mese==3 && $giorno<21)){
    return 'Pesci';
    }else if(
    ($mese==3 && $giorno>20)||($mese==4 && $giorno<21)){
    return 'Ariete';
    }else if(
    ($mese==4 && $giorno>20)||($mese==5 && $giorno<22)){
    return 'Toro';
    }else if(
    ($mese==5 && $giorno>21)||($mese==6 && $giorno<22)){
    return 'Gemelli';
    }else if(
    ($mese==6 && $giorno>21)||($mese==7 && $giorno<24)){
    return 'Cancro';
    }else if(
    ($mese==7 && $giorno>23)||($mese==8 && $giorno<24)){
    return 'Leone';
    }else if(
    ($mese==8 && $giorno>23)||($mese==9 && $giorno<24)){
    return 'Vergine';
    }else if( 
    ($mese==9 && $giorno>23)||($mese==10 && $giorno<24)){
    return 'Bilancia';
    }else if(
    ($mese==10 && $giorno>23)||($mese==11 && $giorno<23)){
    return 'Scorpione';
    }else if(
    ($mese==11 && $giorno>22)||($mese==12 && $giorno<23)){
    return 'Sagittariuo';
    }else if(
    ($mese==12 && $giorno>22)||($mese==1 && $giorno<21)){
    return 'Capricorno';
    }
} 

Add the code snippet to your child-theme functions.php file
or add to the “Code Snippets” plugin.

Hi.

Thank You for you fast solution. The code basically work, just that if I put on the “Shortcode tool”, instead for example of a textbox, It gaves me a different name of what i gave in the shortcode title. It tell me simply “Test”, but i don’t know where it coming from that word, because is not in the code. If Is possible doing with the shortcode how to add also an icon beside the title?

If i try to put the shortcode in a simple text box, it appears only when i go to edit mode and confirm it, even if i set that must be viewed on both mode.

I tried different configuration, but nothing seem to change.

You can use the UM Forms designer to add the shortcode to profile pages.

UM Forms designer – Fields Manager – Setup New Field – Shortcode.

@roberton1973

You can add Zodiac icons via a free icon site and usually there are instructions for adding the icons.

Add each icon HTML to your Return statements.

Sorry, I don’t understand wha you meaning. What is “UM Forms designer”? is an extension of UM? If Yes, where i get It? I only have installed Ultimate Member and in the menu I have:

Dashboard, Settings forms, user roles and member directory. Thanks

@roberton1973

Yes, UM Forms and you add a field to a profile page
in this case the field is a shortcode.

Oh ok. The it is what I already done, but not a title. is simply empty. and then I have the name of the sign.

For example instead ot Have something like

Horoscope sign

Aries

I have only “Aries”

the shortcode i use is [um_user_zodiac] Maybe there is something more to add

@roberton1973

Yes, you can add the title in the Return statement of the shortcode like this:

return 'Horoscope sign ' . segno_zodiacale( um_user( 'birth_date' ));

Thank You so much. It works now ??

I have added the HTML Zodiac icons to your function.
The icons display with the size of 20 px and you may change the size.

add_shortcode( 'um_user_zodiac', 'um_user_zodiac' );

function um_user_zodiac() {
	
    um_fetch_user( um_profile_id() );
 
    return 'Horoscope sign ' . segno_zodiacale( um_user( 'birth_date' ));
}

function segno_zodiacale($data){

    list($anno,$mese,$giorno) = explode('/',$data);
    
    if(($mese==1 && $giorno>20)||($mese==2 && $giorno<20)){
    return '<span style="font-size: 20px">♒</span> Acquario';
    }else if(
    ($mese==2 && $giorno>18 )||($mese==3 && $giorno<21)){
    return '<span style="font-size: 20px">♓</span> Pesci';
    }else if(
    ($mese==3 && $giorno>20)||($mese==4 && $giorno<21)){
    return '<span style="font-size: 20px">♈</span> Ariete';
    }else if(
    ($mese==4 && $giorno>20)||($mese==5 && $giorno<22)){
    return '<span style="font-size: 20px">♉</span> Toro';
    }else if(
    ($mese==5 && $giorno>21)||($mese==6 && $giorno<22)){
    return '<span style="font-size: 20px">♊</span> Gemelli';
    }else if(
    ($mese==6 && $giorno>21)||($mese==7 && $giorno<24)){
    return '<span style="font-size: 20px">♋</span> Cancro';
    }else if(
    ($mese==7 && $giorno>23)||($mese==8 && $giorno<24)){
    return '<span style="font-size: 20px">♌</span> Leone';
    }else if(
    ($mese==8 && $giorno>23)||($mese==9 && $giorno<24)){
    return '<span style="font-size: 20px">♍</span> Vergine';
    }else if( 
    ($mese==9 && $giorno>23)||($mese==10 && $giorno<24)){
    return '<span style="font-size: 20px">♎</span> Bilancia';
    }else if(
    ($mese==10 && $giorno>23)||($mese==11 && $giorno<23)){
    return '<span style="font-size: 20px">♏</span> Scorpione';
    }else if(
    ($mese==11 && $giorno>22)||($mese==12 && $giorno<23)){
    return '<span style="font-size: 20px">♐</span> Sagittariuo';
    }else if(
    ($mese==12 && $giorno>22)||($mese==1 && $giorno<21)){
    return '<span style="font-size: 20px">♑</span> Capricorno';
    }
}
