I have this working code that gets the last 30 days.
<?php
echo date('Y-m-d').' - '.date('Y-m-d', strtotime('today - 30 days'));
?>
I wanted to also to make it more dynamic such as:
`date('Y-m-d', strtotime('from today to 3 months'));`
`date('Y-m-d', strtotime('from today to 7 weeks'));`
`date('Y-m-d', strtotime('from today to 2 years'));`
echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime('- 3 months')).'<br>';
echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime('- 7 weeks')).'<br>';
echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime('- 2 years'));
It's not necessary to specify today inside the strtotime() function.
To make it dynamic use variables, for example:
$amount = 5;
$field = 'months'; // or 'days' or 'years'...
echo date('Y-m-d', strtotime("- $amount $field")).'<br>';
Your current code looks just fine, but you can omit the 'today' part and just do:
date('Y-m-d', strtotime('-3 months'));
date('Y-m-d', strtotime('-7 weeks'));
date('Y-m-d', strtotime('-2 years'));
Please check this answer to get last dates from today :
<?php
$today = date('Y-m-d');
echo $lastthereemonth = date('Y-m-d',strtotime('-3 month',strtotime($today))); echo "<br/>";
echo $lastthereeweeks = date('Y-m-d',strtotime('-3 weeks',strtotime($today)));echo "<br/>";
echo $lastthereedays = date('Y-m-d',strtotime('-3 day',strtotime($today)));
?>
