timeformat

Description

Returns a pretty formatted version of time based on the user's format in $user_info['time_format'].

Syntax

string timeformat (int $time[, bool $show_today])


Parameter $time

Expected type: Integer
Description: A unix timestamp


Parameter $show_today

Expected type: Boolean
Description: Whether or not to force the display based on the "Today" settings. Default is true


Return value

Expected type: String
Description: The formatted time/date with offsets applied


Notes

  • Applies any necessary time offsets to the timestamp.
  • If todayMod is set and show_today was not not specified or true, an alternate format string is used to show the date with something to show it is "today" or "yesterday".
  • Performs localization (more than just strftime would do alone.)
