Plugin for Making Coupons

    Does anyone know of a plugin that can make a coupon that can have a expiration date set to X number of days from the date they visited the page or printed the coupon. Example you visit site on April 5, 2013 and the coupon would expire in 5 days, Coupon would read “Expires: April 10, 2013“.

    I’ve seen some that I can set the the date, but none to automatically generate the date of expiration base on current date + X number of days.

    I know this code will create the date in the future.

    <?php
$future = mktime(0,0,0,date("m"),date("d")+14,date("Y"));
$mydate = date("F j, Y", $future);
echo $mydate;
?>

    I hope someone out there that enjoys making plugins may be able to help if their are no plugins out yet to do this.

    Thanks you

    I’d suggest that you look through the source code for each of the plugins that you’ve found, because if the plugn is written really well there’s a good chance that the author will have put in a filter that will allow you to change the expiry date. Of course that’s only if the author has thought of it. If they haven’t then I’d think about contacting a couple and see if any of them are willing to make that sort of change. They might because I can see that it’s a pretty good suggestion.
