My CPT have a field of availability which is a date.

when I display that date, I'd like to create a conditional display and display the date if it is in the future, but if the availability date is today or before, I'd like to display a kind of "available now".

How can I compare the dates ?

Thanks for your help.

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

You can use the TODAY() function to compare your custom date field.

For example:

[wpv-conditional if="( '[types field='date-field' output='raw'][/types]' lte 'TODAY()' )"]
available now
[/wpv-conditional]
[wpv-conditional if="( '[types field='date-field' output='raw'][/types]' gte 'TODAY()' )"]
Display your date field
[/wpv-conditional]
