Hi, this is my friendly date plugin:

[php:1:6dc9d5a6c2]<?php
function smarty_modifier_friendlydatetime($timestamp) {
$curTimestamp = time();
$difference = $curTimestamp - $timestamp;

switch($difference) {
case ($difference <= 90):
return "1 minute ago";
break;
case ($difference <= 600):
//if the difference is less than 10 minutes
return round($difference / 60, -0.5)." minutes ago";
break;
case ($difference <= 900):
return "A quarter ago";
break;
case ($difference <= 1800):
return round($difference / 60, -0.5)." minutes ago";
break;
case ($difference <= 2700):
return "Half an hour ago";
break;
case ($difference <= 3600):
return "Three quarters ago";
break;
case ($difference <= 86400):
return floor($difference / 3600)." hour and ".floor(($difference - 3600) / 60)." minutes ago";
break;
default:
return date("\A\t d-m-Y \o\n H:i:s",$timestamp);
}
}
[/php:1:6dc9d5a6c2]

C&C Please, hope you like it.

Hi, this is something I use in my scripts, it's a similar to the above, it just displays a bit different:

few seconds ago
4 minutes ago
3 hours ago
...
more than a month ago
