I sent out a test email for this expiration:
[code:1]$zero = strtotime($today) + 3600;[/code:1]
and my expiration was set to 2010-11-30 07:59:59. (should have been midnight of my test day) When I went to the website at about 11am I was already expired. Should I add 24 hours to that time if I want it to be an expiration of "today"?

**edit**

I think the bigger question is why this date in the backend (2010-11-30 07:59:59) equals 2010-11-29 on frontend. To me that says 8am in the morning of 11-30 but it says I expired on 11-29. What's going on with the time difference?

**edit2**
I just added 24 hours to the "today" code so it looks like this:
[code:1]$zero = strtotime($today) + 24*3600;[/code:1] I think this will work

getting an unexpected error and I cannot find out why. The error

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_LNUMBER, expecting T_VARIABLE or '$' in /home/site/public_html/my_scripts/renew.php on line 18

is talking about this line:
[code:1]$4week = strtotime($today) + 672*3600;[/code:1]

and the full code is:
[code:1]<?php
require ("db_info.php"«»); // grabs the database info
$today=date('Y-m-d');

// Opens a connection to a mySQL server
$connection=mysql_connect ($hostname, $username, $password);
if (!$connection) {
die('Not connected : ' . mysql_error());
}

// Set the active mySQL database
$db_selected = mysql_select_db($database, $connection);
if (!$db_selected) {
die ('Can\'t use db : ' . mysql_error());
}

$4week = strtotime($today) + 672*3600;
$3week = strtotime($today) + 504*3600;
$2week = strtotime($today) + 336*3600;
$1week = strtotime($today) + 168*3600;
$zero = strtotime($today) + 24*3600;

$expire= date('Y-m-d', $4week);
$expire2= date('Y-m-d', $3week);
$expire3= date('Y-m-d', $2week);
$expire4= date('Y-m-d', $1week);
$expire5= date('Y-m-d', $zero);[/code:1]

What's wrong with that code?

*edit* you cannot start a variable with a number - I changed $4week to $week4 and fixed issue

does anyone know of a php snippet that will allow us to throttle emails? This php script could potentially send thousands of emails at one time

Does anyone have the latest version of this script, or is the first one posted still valid?

I guess this feature didn't make it into 1.1.2?

Thanks

Am wondering the same thing in both cases. I sent Rod an email but didn't get a response and am unsure whether this feature made it into 1.1.12 I would really love to be able to give my users a head's up when their membership is about to expire.
