   i am stumped. :-/
   i am trying to add a conditional for my posts stating basically the following:

   if this post was entered more than 2 weeks ago then do nothing.

   if it is newer than 2 weeks ago then echo "new".

   i for the life of me cannot figure it out.
   surely someone can help me with this one?
   i am sure it's basic php.

   here is the code that it will reside in:

   <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
   <div class="thumb">
   "><?php the_excerpt(); ?>
   <span class="thumbClient"><?php the_title(); ?></span>
   <div class="newPost">

   //new post conditional here

   </div>
   </div>
   <?php endwhile; endif; ?>

   Change the "conditional" if statement to:

   if($days_since <= 14) :

   so what would the whole code chunk look like? (i'm not a programmer)

   It's at the end of the link. But... This would go where your "//new post conditional here" is:

   <?php
$days_since = floor((date('U') - get_the_time('U')) / 86400);
if($days_since <= 14) :
?>
~ This displays if post 14 days or newer ~
<?php endif; ?>
