smarty and date

Question

i get date with: {$smarty.now|date_format:'%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'}

But how get 20 day after?

If now: 2010 05 05 12:12:12, I wish to show 2010 25 05 12:12:12

Answer 1

Use the strtotime() php function and assign your variable to smarty. Something like this:

<?php
$later = strtotime('+20 day');
$smarty->assign('later', $later);
?>

Then in the template:

{ $later|date_format:'%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'}
