iantearle Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Hey everyone, been working on this time_since() for a while, basically want it to have the ability to put phrases instead of just time in days, minutes etc, for example if it was less than 30 seconds ago, i would want it to say, "saved a moment ago" here is what i have so far, works great up until weeks! then it just buggers up and doesnt show it weeks, only days! HELP! /* ------------------------------------------------------------ Time Ago Stamp ============================================================ */ function time_since($mbtime){ /* Current unix time */ $now = time(); $diff = $now - $mbtime; /* Convert PHP time/date to legiable data, to do the math */ $today = date('dmy', $now) === date('dmy', $mbtime) ? true : false; if($today && $diff < 10){ // if less than 10 seconds ago $num = ceil($diff / 60); return 'a moment ago'; } elseif($today && $diff < 60){ // if less than a minute ago $num = ceil($diff / 1); return $num . ' second' . ($num > 1 ? 's' : '') . ' ago'; } elseif($today && $diff < 60 * 1){ // if less than 1 minute ago $num = ceil($diff / 60); return 'about a minute ago'; } elseif($today && $diff < 60 * 60){ // if less than an hour ago $num = ceil($diff / 60); return $num . ' minute' . ($num > 1 ? 's' : '') . ' ago'; } elseif($today && $diff < 60 * 60 * 2){ $num = floor($diff / 60 / 60); // if hours ago return 'a couple of hours ago'; } elseif($today && $diff < 60 * 60 * 24){ $num = floor($diff / 60 / 60); // if hours ago return $num . ' hour' . ($num > 1 ? 's' : '') . ' ago'; } elseif($today){ $num = floor($diff / 60 / 60 / 24 / 7); // if hours ago return $num . ' day' . ($num > 1 ? 's' : '') . ' ago'; } else //($today && $diff < 60 * 60 * 24 * 7) { $thisyear = date('y', $now) === date('y', $mbtime) ? true : false; $daydiff = date('z', $now) - date('z', $mbtime); if($daydiff === 1 && $thisyear){ return 'Yesterday'; } $num = ceil($diff / 60 / 60 / 24 / 7); // if Days ago return $num . ' week' . ($num > 1 ? 's' : '') . ' ago'; } return $mbtime; } Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
