I am looking to build a template that changes based on the day of the week. Meaning the code would have to look something like: “if Monday, do this. If Tuesday, do that”.

I have no idea if this is possible or where to start looking for solutions.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance.

Sure:
```
{if "{current_time format='%w'}" == "1"} It's Monday!{/if}
```

Alternatively you could use
```
{if "{current_time format='%l'}" == "Monday"} It's Monday!{/if}
```
or
```
{if "{current_time format='%D'}" == "Mon"} It's Monday!{/if}
```
if you wanted your CSS rules to match
