If there’s not enough demand for this feature, I certainly don’t want to bloat up your code.

My request just comes down to accuracy. Like if a business started on Dec 15, 2022 for example, as soon as Jan 1, 2024 came along, the plugin in its current form would display “2 years”, which isn’t that accurate given that the business had only been in business for 1 year and 16 days at that point.

For my particular use case, I would add the whole date for the purpose of calculation, and then simply display the year only. I personally wouldn’t get use out of hiding just the day and showing the year / month. However I think your solution would work for either case.

Like I said though, I appreciate you even considering it and brainstorming out some solutions. No hard feelings if it bloats up your code too much and you decide not to move forward with it.

Sure thing. Will do. Thanks.

Jumping onto this thread with a relevant question…

I’d like to add the Year, Month, Date for the purpose of calculation, but only display the Year.

For example, if the business started on Nov 15, 2020, I’d like to say that it’s been around “3 years” up until Nov 15, 2024, when it switches to “4 years”.

However if I put: [years-since y=2020 m=11 d=15] it displays as “3 years, 5 months, 2 days” — whereas I’d like it to just say “3 years”.

Is this possible? To enter the full day for the calculation, but only display the year? Thank you

Hi @pauldrecksler

You’re 100% right. All our plans require a credit card to start; even the free plan and some features are only available on certain plan levels.

However, you can control when and if your card on file is used within your account settings. You can read more about those settings here – https://optinmonster.com/docs/pageview-and-upgrade-preferences/. And you can always upgrade at any time to access the features you’d like.

We’re sorry OptinMonster didn’t work out for you, and thank you for trying OptinMonster out. Good luck with your future endeavors!

LOL

@mediavine thanks very much for the prompt reply and letting me know. I must have missed that in your documentation. I had attempted to use a standard A HREF link in the bulk editing of the ingredients, and it was stripped away after I hit publish, which is why I assumed it was not possible. I see now that it’s possible with your markup thanks to your reply. I just tested it and see that the link is nofollow and opens in a new tab by default which is what I needed — great work. Thanks for the clarification.
