[Peter]

Library: www.proboards.com/library/plugins/item/60


Now includes an option to populate an element that you add in your template.  The class for the element needs to be called "forum-age".

Very nice, dear!

Thanks Peter - installed and working.

Works great although it does show the wrong number in the day for me, can it have something to do with the extra day in February that is causing this?
(no idea what it is called in English but this year we had 29 days instead of 28 in February)

Also noticed that the numer 24 is missing on the day list 23->25...

Edit: iron-of-el.freemessageboards.com/ Have 23 September 2010 in the plugin, our regular board is 2-2-14 V5 says 2-2-13

For you, it should only be a couple of days off, as your real age is "2 years, 2 months, 11 days".  It's actually more accurate than the v4 date.

Leap years, yeah, couldn't be bothered to work it out

Thanks, will put out an update later today.

Since it was a quick fix, I done it now...

Thanks for letting me know.

Hey, thanks for this, but the date is still 2 days out?

[Peter]

The plugin gives you the approximate age.  So yeah, it may be a couple of days out, but does that really matter?

The plugin was wrote up really quickly last night, I didn't want to sit here working out leap years and do exact calculations.

It matters if you want to celebrate your forum's birthday Peter.

Hello Peter...

Great plugin, but it seems that I have two User Legend in Info Center by Paul (Template Modifications) now showing:

As much as I appreciate the plug in, it does matter a lot to our board, yes, otherwise it's sort of pointless

[Peter]

Ok, try this, now includes leap years and should be spot on. Though please don't base the age created by my plugin compared to other plugins, use something like this (include end date) to workout what it really should be.  That way you can check if my plugin is correct...

Can you link me to your forum, that way I can write a fix for it on the fly and then apply it.

[aRMY83]

No problem Peter...
