Header Assignment With DatetimeConditions

Support
#1

Hi,

I have a website with two different headers - a standard header for use from 1st January until 30th November; and a festive header for use from 1st December till 31st December. In each case, they will be assigned to the entire site.

How can I assign the headers based upon the month and day, but ignoring the year, so that the correct header will be automatically assigned throughout the year?

I tried doing the below in the header settings, but it caused the header to revert to the default (non-Cornerstone) header, rather than the correct headers.

CONDITIONS (Festive Header)
Entire site
{{dc:global:date format="m d"}} after Nov 30
{{dc:global:date format="m d"}} before Jan 01

CONDITIONS (Standard Header)
Entire site
{{dc:global:date format="m d"}} after Dec 31
{{dc:global:date format="m d"}} before Dec 01

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Christopher

Hey Christopher,

Thanks for writing in!

Your conditions might be this:

CONDITIONS (Festive Header)
Entire site
{{dc:global:date format="m d"}} after Nov 30
AND
{{dc:global:date format="m d"}} before Jan 01

CONDITIONS (Standard Header)
Entire site
{{dc:global:date format="m d"}} after Dec 31 
OR
{{dc:global:date format="m d"}} before Dec 01

The default header will display if none of the conditions above will be TRUE.

Hope this helps.

Hi @ruenel,

That is what I tried and none of my CS headers display. My question is really, are the conditions in the correct syntax / format?

In either case, both headers should apply to the entire website. However, each year the standard header should display from 1st January 00:00:00 GMT until 30th November 23:59:59 GMT. The festive header should display from 1st December 00:00:00 GMT until 31st December 23:59:59 GMT. This should happen every year without needing to reference the years.

Thanks,
Christopher

Hey Christopher,

Have your condition updated with the correct dynamic content:

CONDITIONS (Festive Header)
Entire site
{{dc:global:date format="M d"}} after Nov 30
AND
{{dc:global:date format="M d"}} before Jan 01

CONDITIONS (Standard Header)
Entire site
{{dc:global:date format="M d"}} after Dec 31 
OR
{{dc:global:date format="M d"}} before Dec 01

Kindly let us know how it goes.
