Display Author Registration Date – WordPress Development Stack Exchange

In author archive, I want to show author registration date in the following format:

January 16, 2021

I have found this code:

$user_ID = $post->post_author;
echo the_author_meta( 'user_registered', $user_ID );

But its output format is:

2021-01-16 10:40:52

How can I strip off time and get my desired format?

I am using date format F j, Y

functions – Edit Woocommerce Subscription Start Date + Frequency at Checkout

I have a Woocommerce site running Woocommerce Subscriptions plugin.

The site only has one simple subscription, limited to one per user. I want to allow the user to set their own start time and subscription frequency, based on selections made in a dropdown box added during the checkout process.

I have added the checkout fields correctly, and they are simple select boxes:

    <select name="frequency" id="choose_frequency">
       <option value="week">Weekly</option>
       <option value="2week">Fortnightly</option>
       <option value="monthly">Monthly</option>
    </select>

    <select name="start-date" id="sub_start_date">
        <option value="22 Apr 2021">Thursday, 22 April 2021</option>
        <option value="29 Apr 2021">Thursday, 29 April 2021</option>
        <option value="6 May 2021">Thursday, 6 May 2021</option>
    </select>

I need to get the value, convert it to the correct meta, and then update the subscription before it has been created.

I’ve tried to update the meta using woocommerce_checkout_update_order_meta:

//Update the order meta with custom fields values
add_action('woocommerce_checkout_update_order_meta', 'customise_checkout_field_update_order_meta');
function customise_checkout_field_update_order_meta($order_id){
    $subscriptions_ids = wcs_get_subscriptions_for_order( $order_id );
    foreach( $subscriptions_ids as $subscription_id => $subscription_obj ){
        update_post_meta($subscription_id, '_schedule_start',date('Y-m-d h:i:s',$_POST('sub_start_date')));
    }
}

and also tried wcs_create_subscription:

// set start subscription date on checkout page
add_action('wcs_create_subscription', 'cc_wcs_create_subscription');
function cc_wcs_create_subscription($subscription){
    $order_id = $subscription->order->id;
    $subscription_id = $subscription->get_id();
    if($subscription_id  && $_POST('sub_start_date')){
                update_post_meta($subscription_id, '_schedule_start',date('Y-m-d h:i:s',$_POST('sub_start_date')));
    }
}

… I’ve even tried updating the frequency with AJAX:

jQuery(document).on('change','select#choose_frequency',function(){
    var cur_val = jQuery(this).val();
    jQuery.ajax({
            type:'post',
            url:woocommerce_params.ajax_url,
            data:{'action':'cc_update_product_subscription','productid':1086,'cur_val':cur_val},
            success:function(result){
                jQuery(document.body).trigger("update_checkout");
            }
    });
});

// update subscription frequency on checkout page
add_action('wp_ajax_cc_update_product_subscription','cc_update_product_subscription');
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_cc_update_product_subscription','cc_update_product_subscription');
function cc_update_product_subscription(){
    if($_POST('cur_val') == 'week'){
        update_post_meta($_POST('productid'),'_billing_interval','1');
        update_post_meta($_POST('productid'),'_billing_period','week');        
    }
    if($_POST('cur_val') == '2week'){
        update_post_meta($_POST('productid'),'_billing_interval','2');
        update_post_meta($_POST('productid'),'_billing_period','week');
    }
    if($_POST('cur_val') == 'monthly'){
        update_post_meta($_POST('productid'),'_billing_interval','1');
        update_post_meta($_POST('productid'),'_billing_period','month');
    }
    
    die();
}

Nothing seems to be working. The checkout is still processing through to completion, but the subscription details are not updated to reflect those selected by the user. What am I doing wrong?

9 – How to add filter criteria by current date in views

I am using Drupal 9 and have a content type with a field “Publish until” (datetime).
I want to add a filter in views that it will compare the date in this field with current date.
I found a solution here for Drupal 8
Views filter criteria date field is greater than current date

However, my screen looks a bit different:
enter image description here

To be more specific, I don’t have a “Value type” which seems to be necessary in my case.
Am I missing any module that should be enabled?
Or is it related to the Drupal 9 itself?

If there is any another approach to solve this problem with filtering I will be glad to know it.

Change Old WordPress Post Date Year

I have old WordPress posts that were published way back in 2017, 2018, and 2019. I would like to republish this content. Basically, what I want is that all content from 2017 to be republished in 2021, 2018 in 2022, and 2019 in 2023. Is there any possible way I can do this without doing some changes to the database? Is it possible to have a function that I can put in my functions.php to achieve this goal?

date – Is there a standard convention for indicating precision in jpeg metadata timestamps?

Exif timestamps have a format of “YYYY:MM:DD HH:MM:SS”, possibly with a timezone at the end.

Is there a general convention for how to handle these timestamps when the known precision is less than to the second?

For instance, for scans of my parent’s wedding photos the timestamps should be only “YYYY:MM:DD” without any time of day (since I’ve no idea what time it was), but that format isn’t allowed.

I have a vacation photo that I know was taken in August 1963, but again, “1963:08” isn’t considered valid.

I can’t be the only one that has scanned old photos and run into this inability to specify precision.

There are obviously many ways around it, such as using one of the description fields and ignoring the date tag, or putting the date in the filename, or … .

I’m wondering if people that frequently work with scanned photos have come up with a standard convention for handling the problem.
