Datetime Helper - dimsagara - 10-18-2017

such as "Now", "Yesterday", "Tomorrow", "Last Week", "A few minute ago (like Facebook)" and others, and day counting of two date entries. and generating distance between these 2 dates in units of days, months, years, or even hours.

I think it can help for sorting article by date Entries. Thanks

This is a framework not WordPress.

You can find code to do that all over the web

Already in there, similar to Carbon, etc. But fully localized with the system's timezone and locale and easy to convert between that and the user's timezone/locale.

Unfortunately, it looks like it didn't show up on the list of Libraries in the TOC.

Yes you certainly can. I found a brilliant 'time passed' snippet for my own common functions library in about five minutes. One that lets me set an arbitrary amount of units too, so I can have 2 hours or 2 hours and 3 minutes or 2 hours 3 mins and 27 seconds.

And I had no idea about that one. What a great addition. Thank you for sharing.

Paul.

I agree. PHP own DateTime and DateInterval are all you need.
