def prettydate(d):
try:
dt = request.now - d
except:
return ''
if dt.days>=365*2:
return '%s years ago' % int(dt.days/365)
elif dt.days>=365:
return '1 years ago'
elif dt.days>=60:
return '%s months ago' % int(dt.days/30)
elif dt.days>21:
return '1 months ago'
elif dt.days>=14:
return '%s weeks ago' % int(dt.days/7)
elif dt.days>=7:
return '1 week ago'
elif dt.days>=2:
return '%s days ago' % int(dt.days)
elif dt.days==1:
return '1 day ago'
else:
return 'today'
