Description:
I have created a page variable called BlogDate2 which produces the page's creation time in the format YYYY-MM-DD.
I'm confused by how this page variable works with (:if date:).
Assuming I created the page today:
(:if date yesterday..tomorrow:) this is true.
(:if date "-1 month"..tomorrow:) this is true.
(:if date yesterday..tomorrow {*$BlogDate2}:) this is true.
(:if date "-1 month"..tomorrow {*$BlogDate2}:) this is not true.
BlogDate2:{(ftime when=today fmt="%F")}
* BlogDate2 is "{$:BlogDate2}"
* (:if date yesterday..tomorrow:) true (:else:) %red%false (:ifend:)
* (:if date "-1 month"..tomorrow:) true (:else:) %red%false (:ifend:)
* (:if date yesterday..tomorrow {*$:BlogDate2}:) true (:else:) %red%false
(:ifend:)
* (:if date "-1 month"..tomorrow {*$:BlogDate2}:) true (:else:) %red%false
(:ifend:)
* (:if date "-1month"..tomorrow {*$:BlogDate2}:) true (:else:) %red%false
(:ifend:)

BlogDate2:2013-06-19
- BlogDate2 is "2013-06-19"
- true
- true
- true
- false
- true

Try eliminating the spaces from "-1 month" or using something like "-30days":
BlogDate3:{(ftime today %F)}
* (:if date "-1month"..tomorrow {*$:BlogDate3} :) true (:else:) %red%false
(:ifend:)
* (:if date "-30days"..tomorrow {*$:BlogDate3} :) true (:else:) %red%false
(:ifend:)
