I’m trying to get an element (a button) to appear after a specific time and date, but I can’t seem to find the correct formatting of the datetime to trigger the automation!
Any help would be appreciated!
I figured this out with the help of this thread: Show an element until a certain date?
The dropdown in the first condition statement box could be a little more clear as to what it should be used for. As you can see, I needed to use two dynamic elements (one for date, and one for time) in that field in order to query the current date and time from my web server, and then I needed to understand the underlying PHP and how it was evaluating the statement.
Two suggestions for improvements to this functionality:
- A date/time picker - This would have helped immensely as I wouldn’t have had to try so hard to figure out formatting
- Documentation!!! The only way that I ended up finding the support thread I mentioned before was because I just happened to use the search string of “date” in the forum
IMO: I think this could be an EXCELLENT topic for one of your videos. Just do a deep dive on this “conditions” functionality
