Hi ,
I make a product template like groupon with coupons.
now i have make in database a field service_till
This field numeric and present the coupon till date in Months 1-12

Now i try to put it out the order.date + this value
i assing this field with

{assign var="stm" value=strtotime("+`$oi.extra.service_till` months")}

how i can add this to {$order_info.timestamp} for a correct output ?

You woudln't do it in the template, you would do it in a PHP PRE controller. However, I would NOT recommend adjusting the timestamp of the order based on a coupon or other external factor. You should use a completely different field and I would suggest NOT modifying your database, but to use the $order_info.extras array instead.

Hi thanks for answer.
i not adjust the $order_info.timestamp i need it for make a calculation for the expired date of the coupon that show in the invoice.tpl.
i have this solution whit the unix based calculation

{$order_info.timestamp+60*60*24*30*$oi.extra.service_till|date_format:"%e. %B %Y"}

bit this whit 30 day.
i would like a correct solution.

You should use the 'math' function and assign the result to a variable for comparison.
If you are doing a comparison for validity, why are you formatting the result as a date rather than just comparing whether one timestamp is greater than the other?

strange local the code works on the server dont works.
Jes have now assign the math. Works is Oke
i dont understand the comparing of the the timestamp.

I leave it so is okey. Thank you for help

{math equation="order_date + 60 * 60 * 24 * 30 * how_many_months_are_valid" order_date=$order_info.timestamp how_many_months_are_valid=$oi.extra.service_till assign="coupon_valid_till"}

{$coupon_valid_till|date_format:"%e. %B %Y"}
