what wrong with this small code? (using the_post)

  • When I run this code it shows the date of 1970-01-01 for $postdate
    I want to be able to compare the date the post was created vs other dates. If I use the_date() it echos the date everytime, and I don’t want echos. Any help is appreciated.

    if (is_single())
	{
		$postdate = date('Y-m-d',strtotime($post->post_date));
		if ($postdate < date('Y-m-d', strtotime("-7 days")))
		{
			 //return something
		}
	}

  • Test for posts that are so many days old date (in this case 46 days)

    <?php
$mylimit=46 * 86400; //days * seconds per day
//$post_age = date('U') - get_post_time('U');
$post_age = date('U') - mysql2date('U', $post->post_date_gmt); //or use $post->post_date
if ($post_age < $mylimit) {
echo 'this post is within my date limit ';
}
?>
