Age field?

Hello,

Yes, you can do it.
I assume you want to add this field to user form for admin reference.

Here is step by step guide:

1. Create new additional field at aMember CP -> Configuration -> Add Fields set Field Type to SQL, SQL field type to String, Field Name to birthday and Display Type to Date
2. Edit site.php (http://www.amember.com/docs/Site.php_file) file and add the following code

PHP:

//bind our function addAgeField to gridUserInitForm event
Am_Di::getInstance()->hook->add('gridUserInitForm', 'addAgeField');
 
function addAgeField(Am_Event $event)
{
    //get grid object from event and retrieve user record and form from it
    $form = $event->getGrid()->getForm();
    $user = $event->getGrid()->getRecord();
 
    //in case user already choose something for birthday
    if ($user->birthday) {
        //create two DateTime objects (now and birthday)
        $birthday = Am_Di::getInstance()->dateTime->setTimestamp(amstrtotime($user->birthday));
        $now = Am_Di::getInstance()->dateTime;
 
        //find the difference
        $diff = $now->diff($birthday);
        $age = $diff->format('%y');
 
        //retrieve comment element from form
        list($el) = $form->getElementsByName('comment');
 
        //create static element (just html output) and set necessary info to it
        $static = HTML_QuickForm2_Factory::createElement('static');
        $static->setLabel(___('Age'))
            ->setContent('<div>' . ___('%d years', $age) . '</div>');
 
        //insert our static element to user form just before comment element
        $el->getContainer()->insertBefore($static, $el);
    }
}


That is all. You should see calculated age in user form in case of user already choose birthday date.

It seems you use old version of PHP that does not support DateTime::setTimestamp() yet.

You can replace code

PHP:

$birthday = Am_Di::getInstance()->dateTime->setTimestamp(amstrtotime($user->birthday));


with

PHP:

$date = getdate(amstrtotime($user->birthday));
$birthday = Am_Di::getInstance()->dateTime->setDate($date['year'], $date['mon'], $date['mday']);


Regarding years in datepicker:
Did you tried to change it in admin interface?

Please add field birthday to profile form
aMember CP -> Configuration -> Forms Editor

and then login as user and try to set date.

You are welcome!

Actually it works but do not include so wide range of years. We will extend it in next release.

Hello,

Yes, of course. You can do it.

1. edit file amember/application/default/views/public/js/admin.js
2. find initialization of datepicker and right after line of code changeYear: true, add the following line yearRange: 'c-90:c+10',
3. save file and refresh page with admin interface in your browser.

Actually you can find changeYear: true, only in one place in this file so just add suggested code right after it.

Yes, there is such issue. Unfortunately date below 1970 is qualified as in 2000. So your 69 is actually 2069.

To fix this issue you need to use locale with 4 digits in year format. For English language you can use British English locale. You can change default locale at aMember CP -> Configuration -> Setup/Configuration -> Languages (Default Locale)

I am sorry I do not familiar with japanese locales. You can tried all available japanese locales. One of them can have year format with 4 digits.

I think it will be better to contact us in helpdesk with this issue I hope we will find some solution for you.

I found one workaround for you. You can edit file amember/application/default/views/public/js/admin.js
find initialization of datepicker and right after line of code changeYear: true, add the following line shortYearCutoff: 30,

You can tune this value (30). Please read more about this param here http://api.jqueryui.com/datepicker/#option-shortYearCutoff

I hope it will solve your issue.

Thank you for your update. I hope this info can be useful for someone else as well.
