Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Dynamic Dates

Dynamic Dates uses PHP's strtotime() function to parse natural language into relative timestamps. For example, two years from now is "+2 year" and Canadian Thanksgiving is the "second monday of october" . Browse the full strtotime() reference to find other possibilities.
Use one of the built-in shortcodes: [now], [yesterday], [today], [tomorrow], [last-month], [this-month], [next-month], [last-year], [this-year], [next-year] See live examples at my website.
This is a very powerful feature. Use any shortcode, or the generic [date] shortcode, and extend it with the following attributes, each of which is optional: format - a pattern to format the date or time. Browse the different formatting codes for English mode and International mode. time - the date or time specified with natural language relative_to - a date or time that the first time is "relative to", also specified with natural language timezone - a timezone to display (the default is set in the WordPress settings (requires PHP 5.2 or higher) language - a language to use (requires PHP 5.3 or higher) 'English Mode' advanced examples: It's Sunday 15:58:47 in Paris, France [date format="l H:i:s" timezone="Europe/Paris"]
[date format="F jS" time="second monday of october"] [date format="F jS" time="second monday of october" relative_to="next year"] 'International Mode' advanced examples: Voy a la fiesta el viernes 22 de marzo `[date format="d de MMMM" "time="friday" language="es_CL"]` See live examples at my website.
