   Hi,

   I've tried to find a plugin but haven't been 100% successful.

   Members List will let me see a list of users via the registration date. So the information is in the database to be used.

   Is there anyway of getting notified as the WP Admin when a user reaches the 365th day after they registered -- ie, their one-year anniversary as a member of the site?

   So put simply, something along the lines of:
   

   <?php
   
   function user_anniversary {
   if user = subscriber (& registration date +365 days = today) 
   
   action "notify Admin (via email preferably)" 
   
   }

   As you may guess, I'm not a natural php coder!! ;)

   I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one having requested this, but can't seem to find anything.

   Any pointers gratefully received.

   Cheers,

   Tracy

   Here's a quick, untested, snippet that will hopefully inspire you.

   <?php
   global $current_user;
   get_currentuserinfo();
   
   $registered = $current_user->user_registered;
   $now        = date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
   $diff       = strtotime($now) - strtotime($registered);
   $days       = $diff / (60 * 60 *24);
   $daysround  = round($days);
   
   if( $daysround == 365 ) echo "Happy anniversary";
   ?>

   Don't forget leap years...

   Hi tcbarrett,

   Thanks for this -- looks promising.

   Somehow I need to add an instruction to email Admin in place of the:

   echo "Happy anniversary"

   I found this useful snippet (at http://wp.smashingmagazine.com/2009/08/18/10-useful-wordpress-hook-hacks/) that looks well on the way to getting what I want along with the above code (slighly hacked for this purpose):

   if (!wp_next_scheduled('my_task_hook')) {
      wp_schedule_event( time(), 'daily', 'my_task_hook' );
   }
   
   add_action( 'my_task_hook', 'my_task_function' );
   
   function my_task_function() {
     wp_mail('blogadmin@mysite.com', 'Automatic email', 'User-name has been a member for one year.');
   }

   Basically, a scheduled event happening daily, that will call the function to check if any user has been a member for 365 days.

   I just don't know how to marry the two snippets of code above. As I say, I'm not a programmer so I'm relying heavily on you experts out there.

   Cheers,

   Tracy
