Question

I’ve getting a DATETIME from the database and I need to be able to check to see whether or not that date is within 30 days from now.

$renewal_date = $row['renewal_date'];
$current_time = new DateTime();
$interval = $renewal_date->diff($current_time);

That ain’t workin’ for me.

Answer 1

Try something like this

$renewal_date = new DateTime($row['renewal_date']);
$cutoff= new DateTime('+31 days 00:00');


if ($renewal_date < $cutoff && $renewal_date >= new DateTime)
    echo 'Renewal Time!';
else
    echo 'All OK!';

Remove the && condition if you want to show renewal for dates in the past
