I have a question about Extract Field date on K2..

the Field of Date, user select the date and it can show the age.

Do you have any code of it?

If ueser select 10/02/2010, so the result will display " 11 Years OLd and 03 months"

thank..

Run this check in the foreach loop that prints out the extra fields:
<?php if($extraField->type == 'date'): ?>
This is the raw date value to format as you like >> <?php echo $extraField->rawValue; ?>
<?php endif; ?>

Then use PHP date formatting (www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php) to render rawValue; ?> to anything you like.

If you know basic PHP coding, it should not be an issue for you to find the extra fields foreach loop and modify it to get the raw date value. If you need more explaining, then what you ask is beyond the support provided in this forum.

Dear Fotis,
If you don't mind, could you tell me which files that I need to go working on because I don't know files location and files's name that I need to work on them.
It is my first time that I customize the code and I don't know about the files name/location.

I tried to go component/k2 (There are many folders and files here.)

If I want to display age with these link which files and location.. Could you share with me...
khmercdp.org/index.php/component/k2/item/314-khm0060494
khmercdp.org/index.php/component/k2/itemlist/category/6-khm006

thank

Create a set of K2 template overrides inside your current Joomla template. Follow this guide: getk2.org/documentation/tutorials/templating-with-k2-and-the-concepts-of-sub-templates

Then all you have to do is work on the default/item.php file AFTER you've created any relevant extra fields of course (so you have the data to work with).
