How to check if page id is larger than a number

<?php

if (2030>1000 ) {
echo “display something”;
}elseif ( 1 > 2021 ) {
echo “display something more”;
}
?>

@harshithareddy is this a mock?

Hi, @isitegate

You can try this:

<?php if(get_the_ID()>1000){?>
This page/post has an ID > 1000
<?php } ?>

or

<?php if (get_the_date("Y")<2021){?>
This page/post has been published before 2021
<?php } ?>

You can read the documentation on these functions here

Hope this helps,
Kind regards!

@vladytimy thanks a lot.
i tried looking at the documentations but can’t figure out if this is correct? ..
<?php if (get_the_date("l, F j, Y") < Friday, September 24, 2004){
or
<?php if (get_the_date("l, F j, Y") < 'Friday, September 24, 2004'){

or is there another way?

I’m not really sure how comparing dates in php works. (definetely not a php expert here) My first thought was that comparing two strings is not possible, but according to this https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/comparing-two-dates-in-php/
the 2nd code above code should work just fine.

The first one will result in an error – something like Friday is not definded/is not a constant. It’s a string so it needs ” ”

If the above comparation doesn’t work, try using strtotime().
Test it an see what works. ??

I suggest making these changes in a child theme, so it doesn’t get reverted when your theme will update next time.

@vladytimy Thanks a lot, yes i’m using a child theme.
and now i have done it like this.
first checked the timestamp for the day, get_the_date(“U”)
then
<?php if (get_the_date(“U”) < 1611583484){ ?>
display something
<?php } ?>

Thanks again.
