A way to add AND or OR conditionals?

    Hey there!
    I’m trying to set this up where our website will show whether they’re open or close at the time and each day has a differing schedule. So, for each day there is a shortcode like this:

    [time-restrict-repeat type=”weekly” onday=”Saturday” offday=”Saturday” ontime=”10:00:00″ offtime=”23:00:00″ else=”Work sucks, drink beer.”]
    It’s the weekend baby!
    [/time-restrict-repeat]

    [time-restrict-repeat type=”weekly” onday=”Sunday” offday=”Sunday” ontime=”11:00:00″ offtime=”19:00:00″ else=”Work sucks, drink beer.”]
    It’s the weekend baby!
    [/time-restrict-repeat]

    ETC….
    With this setup, it will always output the “else” content, in this case it will repeat the “Work sucks, drink beer.” statement 6 times (one for each day it is not).

    Since the “OFF” statement is the same, is there a way only run one “OFF” statement? Or a conditional like so:

    IF it’s Saturday AND between X and Y
    OR
    it’s Sunday between x and y
    OR
    it’s Monday between x and y
    DO THIS
    ELSE
    DO THIS INSTEAD

    This way it would only produce one ELSE content.
    Thanks!

    There is a way to do this, but you need to not use the else paramter, because as you say, it will always display the else content. You need to add a second shortcode for each shortcode that you currently have, which basically accounts for the time between the previous offtime and the next ontime. So, from your example:

    [time-restrict-repeat type="weekly" onday="Saturday" offday="Saturday" ontime="10:00:00" offtime="23:00:00"]
It’s the weekend baby!
[/time-restrict-repeat]

[time-restrict-repeat type="weekly" onday="Saturday" offday="Sunday" ontime="23:00:00" offtime="11:00:00"]
Work sucks, drink beer.
[/time-restrict-repeat]

[time-restrict-repeat type="weekly" onday="Sunday" offday="Sunday" ontime="11:00:00" offtime="19:00:00"]
It’s the weekend baby!
[/time-restrict-repeat]
