and right now also, when the week is over, the module stops displaying anything at all.

Hi tokenring,

First up, Sunday is day 0, not day 7. That's why your rule seemed to fail on Sunday

There are a number of ways to do the time of day thing. I'll show you how to do it with a combination of the day of week constants and the JomGenius time period support.

if ( MM_DAY_OF_WEEK == 1 ) {
  if ( $core_genius->inTimeSpan("00:00 - 05:59:59") ) return 1;
  if ( $core_genius->inTimeSpan("06:00 - 11:59:59") ) return 2;
  if ( $core_genius->inTimeSpan("12:00 - 17:59:59") ) return 3;
  if ( $core_genius->inTimeSpan("18:00 - 23:59:59") ) return 4;
}

if ( MM_DAY_OF_WEEK == 2 ) {
  if ( $core_genius->inTimeSpan("00:00 - 05:59:59") ) return 5;
  if ( $core_genius->inTimeSpan("06:00 - 11:59:59") ) return 6;
  if ( $core_genius->inTimeSpan("12:00 - 17:59:59") ) return 7;
  if ( $core_genius->inTimeSpan("18:00 - 23:59:59") ) return 8;
}
// ... etc.

You can learn more about JomGenius inTimeSpan here: http://www.metamodpro.com/jomgenius/parameters
Finally, yes you can use elif, but there's no gain in doing so here, since the code is doing a "return" and doesn't even make it to the next line.

Hope that helps,
Stephen

thanks stephen!  not sure how I got the days mixed up when all other modules seemed to show up on their correct day.  this is an excellent module and I might just upgrade.

Hi Bharath,

I think it's probably a basic setup issue. Please ensure the MetaMod is published, in a valid module position for your template, and set to display on some or all pages. If that doesn't work, turn on MetaMod debug mode and ensure that you see some output on every page that the MetaMod is assigned to.

Your PHP code seems fine. Please write back if you need any help with the other time constraints (though if you know PHP it's fairly simple).

Best regards,
Stephen
