Hiding a record on a specific date

I have done this on coupons by using -1 day as the expiration text.

<?php echo "Offer Exipres ".date('D, M jS, Y', strtotime('-1 day', strtotime($record['removalDate']))) ?>

Thanks for the reply, Ron. Please can you tell me where I should place your suggested code?

This is my code on the index page:

<table width="100" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
        <tr>
          <?php foreach ($record['logo'] as $index => $upload): ?>
          <td class="tdOffersIndexLogoCell">
            <a href="<?php echo $record['_link'] ?>">
              <img src="<?php echo $upload['thumbUrlPath'] ?>" width="<?php echo $upload['thumbWidth'] ?>" height="<?php echo $upload['thumbHeight'] ?>" border="0">
              </a>
            </td>
          <?php endforeach ?>
          <td><img src="images/single-pixel.gif" width="13" height="160" /></td>
          </tr>
        <tr>
          <td><img src="images/single-pixel.gif" width="162" height="1" /></td>
          <td><img src="images/single-pixel.gif" width="6" height="1" /></td>
          </tr>
        <tr>
          <td><p class="pBigLabel" align="center"><strong><a href="<?php echo $record['_link'] ?>">
            <?php echo htmlencode($record['offer_headline']) ?>
            </a></strong></p>
            <p align="center" class="pCaptionNoPad"><em>Offer expires&nbsp;<?php echo date("l, F jS, Y", strtotime($record['removeDate'])) ?>.</em></p></td>
          <td>&nbsp;</td>
          </tr>
        </table>

Thanks!

You need to modify the Offer Expires line where you are echoing the remove Date.

Replace this:
<?php echo date("l, F jS, Y", strtotime($record['removeDate'])) ?>

with this:

<?php echo date("l, F jS, Y", strtotime('-1 day', strtotime($record['removeDate']))) ?>

The line would then be:

<p align="center" class="pCaptionNoPad"><em>Offer expires&nbsp;<?php echo date("l, F jS, Y", strtotime('-1 day', strtotime($record['removeDate']))) ?>.</em></p></td>

Hope that solves it for you.

Well, the date you should be entering is the REMOVAL DATE (May 1) and not the expiration date of April 30.  As long as the administrator understands that the expiration date that is published is calculated from the removal date it works fine.  I always put a note above the removal date field as a reminder and have never had a problem.

I feel like such a knucklehead - your solution seems so obvious to me now that you pointed that out!

Thanks for your suggestions and patience.

No need to apologize ... we all do that on occasion.... glad to be of assistance.
