minor change suggestion for our main site

textpattern.com/ states:

Well over a decade of development has been lovingly poured into our CMS.

which is technically correct but shouldn’t it change to

Well over 15 years of development has been lovingly poured into our CMS.

Alternatively we could use <txp:fha_time_diff /> or possibly <txp:evaluate /> using this untested construct which is possibly wrong

<txp:evaluate query='<txp:php>echo safe_strftime("%Y");</txp:php> - 2003' />

Re: minor change suggestion for our main site

Re: minor change suggestion for our main site

I just tested it in an article on the production release demo site and an my latest beta and it works just fine returning 17. Note that in a textiled article you might need to use

==<txp:evaluate query='<txp:php>echo safe_strftime("%Y");</txp:php> - 2003' />==

Re: minor change suggestion for our main site

Probably this will suffice, no need to evaluate:

<txp:php>echo safe_strftime("%Y") - 2003;</txp:php>
