Im trying to make a query where time() is between date_start and date_end
i tried:

date_start > CURRENT_TIMESTAMP AND date_end < CURRENT_TIMESTAMP

and

WHERE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP BETWEEN date_start AND date_end

Still it does not workout for me. Tried CURRENT_TIMESTAMP() too.

Mysql

id  item_id percentage  rabatcode   date_start  date_end

    Compare NOW() against the values via FROM_UNIXTIME():

    WHERE NOW() BETWEEN FROM_UNIXTIME(date_start) AND FROM_UNIXTIME(date_end)

    Ideally, if it is possible for you to modify your database structure, it is usually much better to store dates as MySQL’s native DATETIME type, owing to the fact that MySQL’s date processing functions work with the date types without conversion.
