Using Wp User query the metafield part is working but still im trying to make the time function working. Seems the Math is not taken in account.

I am using the following:

$now = time(); // right now
	$postdate = strtotime(get_the_date()); // the post date
	$datediff = $now - $postdate; // math 
	$daysdiff = floor($datediff / (60 * 60 * 24)); // rounding down 
 if($daysdiff >= 4 ){ // if the post is older than 4 days
	comment_form();

}

The comment box is displaying no matter what although the post is not older than 4 days.

Also I just realized that the post is in “Fixing WordPress” instead of “Developing with wordpress” … Maybe you can move it to?

Thank you.

I did the math using echo on variables. $now = time(); was not giving anything.
So i used $now = date( 'Y-m-d H:i:s', current_time( 'timestamp', 0 ) ); to get current time. I also did some changed in the code. Im sharing the following working code:

   $now = date( 'Y-m-d H:i:s', current_time( 'timestamp', 0 ) ); // right now
	$ts1 = strtotime($now);
    $ts2 = strtotime(get_the_date('Y-m-d H:i:s'));
	$datediff = $ts1 - $ts2;
	$daydiff = floor($datediff / 86400);
 	if($daydiff >= 4 ){ // if the post is older than 4 days
	comment_form();

} else {
    echo "Post is not old enuf";
	}

If anyone want help on how to setup restrict content with user meta field please feel free to ask.

Cheers
