I am trying to: Calculate age from date field
the code I have used into Toolset -> Settings -> Custom Code

add_shortcode( 'iam-eta', 'wpv_post_age_shortcode');
function wpv_post_age_shortcode( $atts ) {
   global $post;
 $timestamp = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'data-di-nascita', true );
$age = round((time() - $timestamp) / ( 60*60*24* 365 )) ;
return $age;
}

Link to a page where the issue can be seen: versteckter Link

I expected to see: with the shortcode [iam-eta] I expected to see the age

Instead, I got: only the number 49

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Well - if the field "data-di-nascita" is created using Types, all Types custom fields have prefix "wpcf-" when you try to access is directly using core WordPress function.

So, if field "data-di-nascita" is indeed created using Types plugin, then you need to usee the code:

add_shortcode( 'iam-eta', 'wpv_post_age_shortcode');
function wpv_post_age_shortcode( $atts ) {
   global $post;
 $timestamp = get_post_meta( $post->ID, 'wpcf-data-di-nascita', true );
$age = round((time() - $timestamp) / ( 60*60*24* 365 )) ;
return $age;
}

Could you pelase let me know if above solution help you to resolve your issue.

So, one other question:
I'm 37 years old, my birthday is in 9 march 1981, with your code result that my age is 38.
What sould I do to visualize the correct age?
