Hi there,

i want to add a "mute" function so my mods can "mute" a user for like 24 hours and he can not post in that time period. I think that's much better than directly banning a spammer, because i feel some people CAN learn.

So i wanna give my mods a "mute" button, but how can i calculate with dates?


I have added custom fields to the MEMBERS table, so every user has additional colums "Muted" (boolean, standard 0), "MutedUntill" (I thought date, but i have seen snitz uses nvarchar(14)...), "MutedBy" (mod username, probably nvarchar(150)), MutedReason (Nvarchar).

I think i get most stuff done, but i don't understand how to calculate with the dates. How can i make it so it writes "Current date + 24 hours" to the MutedUntill field? And how can i check against that, like if currentdate > muteddate then (allow posting)?

You will need to use the function StrToDate to convert from the snitz format and then use VbScript date functions to add a day and convert back to Snitz format with DateToStr, which is another function also available in our code.
