Question

I am developing an app in Rails 3 and I would like to do a check that the current user is not new (that it has been more than 24 hours since he signed up). How can I do this?

Thankful for all input.

Answer 1

Compare the created_at with 24 hours ago:

current_user = User.first
if current_user.created_at > 1.day.ago
  # user is new
end
