REQ: article posted="today" ???

I wish, that both txp:article and txp:article_custom
would be able to have their posted attribute set to “today”
- regardless of the current hour actually.

Re: REQ: article posted="today" ???

would this work for you?

<txp:variable name="posted-day"><txp:php>echo safe_strftime("%b %d, %Y");</txp:php></txp:variable>
<txp:if_variable name="posted-day" value='<txp:posted format="%b %d, %Y" />'>
<txp:posted />
<txp:else />
Today
</txp:if_variable>

Try also this:

<txp:article month="today" time="%Y-%m-%d" />

Thank you very much, Yannis and etc.

I went with etcs method. It does work here with an article_custom tag.
But why and how exactly?
The txp tag docs don’t give me any clue there…

The docs vaguely mention time and month attributes, awaiting a better description by someone (why not you? :-)
