Hi there,

On EE 1.6.x Is it possible to create Global Date variable which can be used to check against to determine if a piece of content was published after a specific date?

So you could have something like…

{if "{entry_date format='%m%d%Y'}" > "{change_date format='%m%d%Y'}"}
...
{if:else}
...
{/if}

thanks
Kevin

Hi Kevin,

Perhaps.

You would need to store the date in the Global Variable in the proper format. So the *content* of the variable would be:

05222012

and you would name it change_date. Then your code would look similar to this:

{if "{entry_date format='%m%d%Y'}" > "{change_date}"}
...
{if:else}
...
{/if}

Based on ExpressionEngine’s Parse Order, that should work.

Cheers,

Cheers Dan, I just figured it out…
