Hi,

I want to use a mass action in order to add products, which are newer than 3 weeks to the category "new".
I have tried an expression, which somebody mentioned in this forum before: {time}-1814400 (for "3 weeks in seconds") with "product_created <= {time}-1814400".
But all I get is the message "wrong value - 0 results".

>> What expression do I have to insert here?

Unfortunately, I didn't find any helpful hints in the documentation.
Looking forward to any advice.

Hi,

Firstly, I guess it will be "product_created" >= {time}-1814400.
Secondly, you have the edit the file "administrator/components/com_hikashop/classes/massaction.php" and replace the code Code:

if((in_array($filter['operator'],array('<=','>=','<','>')) && !preg_match('/^(?:\d+|\d*\.\d+)$/',$filter['value']))){ echo JText::_('WRONG_VALUE').' - '; return '1 = 2'; }

By Code:

if((in_array($filter['operator'],array('<=','>=','<','>')) && !preg_match('/^(?:\d+|\d*\.\d+)$/',$filter['value']))){ if(strpos($filter['value'],'{time}') !== false){ $query = new HikaShopQuery(); $filter['value'] = $query->_replaceDate($filter['value']); $filter['value'] = strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S',$filter['value']); } else { echo JText::_('WRONG_VALUE').' - '; return '1 = 2'; } }

It will add the support of "{time}" in the global mass action system, not only in the Acymailing integration.

Regards,
