Hi,
I have a button that should only be visible if a customer has created an order “45 mins ago”… the date/time selector only offers 30mins and 1h. is there a way I can do it?
I assume it would be ((1/24)/60)*45 in UNIX time but that doesn’t let me do the “45 mins ago”
thank you
Hi @dilon_perera hope you’re doing well. I’ve looked in the forum but did not find a similar question, maybe you’ve seen this question before?
Hey @axme
Add a hidden input to the screen and a Number parameter called “Timestamp” to the user collection.
Save that timestamp as both a date/time and a number value.
Hidden input should have a custom formula to calculate the 45 minutes.
Custom formula: Timestamp + 0.03125
Then, use the number parameter to compare to the input’s value where “Logged-in user > timestamp # > is greater than > hidden input”.
Hey @axme agreed on Mario’s answer above. You can also use this formula “(current time) + x/1440” where x is 45 mins. You can use this formula for any amount of mins given there are 1440 mins in a day.
Thank you @Flawless and @Emeka, I forgot to explain an important detail:
I need the button to appear again after 45mins.
What happens now: I press the "order " button and create the “timestamp” → button becomes not visible as it should → but after 45 mins it does not show up again.
I’ve been trying many other combinations but I’m not getting the buttons to show up again.
Here’s a video of the setup (for testing purposes I made the button disappear for only 1 min):
Since I know this is costing you time, happy to buy your solution to this on nocodeshare/other platform 
many thank you very much Sir @Flawless ! Brilliant solution
I didn’t add the hidden input: I just save in the user the date/time + 45mins and then show the button if “date/time + 45mins” is before “current time”. Am I leaving a vulnerability by doing that that the hidden input does?
Nope. You’re good.
