I have a query loop and inside I have a headline block with the class of
new-article. I have written some code to hide that block when the post associated with that block is more than 24 hours:add_filter('render_block', function ($block_content, $block) { // Check if the block has the class "new-article" if (!is_admin() && !empty($block['attrs']['className']) && strpos($block['attrs']['className'], 'new-article') !== false) { // Check if 'data' and 'postId' keys exist // Get the post ID associated with the block $post_id = $block['attrs']['data']['postId']; // Check if the post is older than 24 hours $post_date = get_the_time('U', $post_id); $current_time = current_time('timestamp'); $time_difference = $current_time - $post_date; // If the post is older than 24 hours, hide the block if ($time_difference >= 86400) { // 86400 seconds = 24 hours return ''; } } return $block_content; }, 10, 2);It works, but I get a PHP warning:
Warning: Undefined array key "data" in /home/[sitename]/[siteURL]/wp-content/themes/theme-name/functions.php on line 149Line 149 is:
$post_id = $block['attrs']['data']['postId'];I tried adding a check:
add_filter('render_block', function ($block_content, $block) { // Check if the block has the class "new-article" if (!is_admin() && !empty($block['attrs']['className']) && strpos($block['attrs']['className'], 'new-article') !== false) { // Check if 'data' and 'postId' keys exist if (isset($block['attrs']['data']) && isset($block['attrs']['data']['postId'])) { // Get the post ID associated with the block $post_id = $block['attrs']['data']['postId']; // Check if the post is older than 24 hours $post_date = get_the_time('U', $post_id); $current_time = current_time('timestamp'); $time_difference = $current_time - $post_date; // If the post is older than 24 hours, hide the block if ($time_difference >= 86400) { // 86400 seconds = 24 hours return ''; } } } return $block_content; }, 10, 2);But now the headline block always shows. What am I doing wrong?

Hi George,
Why not use
$post_id = get_theID();instead of$post_id = $block['attrs']['data']['postId'];? -
Doing that is not working as intended because the headline block always shows.
Sorry, thread title should have been:
Show/hide block according to post date! -
It should not, i just tested on my site and it works.

I get
Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function get_theID() in wp-content/themes/theme_name/functions.php:152 -
Hi George,
Sorry, there was a typo in Ying’s code. It should be
get_the_ID().Can you try that instead?

Here is my code so far:
add_filter('render_block', function ($block_content, $block) { // Check if the block has the class "new-article" if (!is_admin() && !empty($block['attrs']['className']) && strpos($block['attrs']['className'], 'new-article') !== false) { // Check if 'data' and 'postId' keys exist if (isset($block['attrs']['data']) && isset($block['attrs']['data']['postId'])) { // Get the post ID associated with the block $post_id = get_the_ID(); // Check if the post is older than 24 hours $post_date = get_the_time('U', $post_id); $current_time = current_time('timestamp'); $time_difference = $current_time - $post_date; // If the post is older than 24 hours, hide the block if ($time_difference >= 86400) { // 86400 seconds = 24 hours return ''; } } } return $block_content; }, 10, 2);The block is always visible, though.

Hi there,
i think this is what Ying meant:
add_filter('render_block', function ($block_content, $block) { // Check if the block has the class "new-article" if ( !is_admin() && !empty($block['attrs']['className']) && strpos($block['attrs']['className'], 'new-article') !== false ) { // Get the post ID associated with the block $post_id = get_the_ID(); // Check if the post is older than 24 hours $post_date = get_the_time('U', $post_id); $current_time = current_time('timestamp'); $time_difference = $current_time - $post_date; // If the post is older than 24 hours, hide the block if ($time_difference >= 86400) { // 86400 seconds = 24 hours return ''; } } return $block_content; }, 10, 2); -
Yes, I see, it works, thanks!
