What does '1 day after or equal to in the past' and '1 day before or equal to, in the future' mean in Webflow's date/time field filter? Are there any resources available to help clarify this topic?

The '1 day after or equal to in the past' and '1 day before or equal to in the future' are date/time filters used in Webflow's CMS to filter and display content based on the current date.

  1. '1 day after or equal to in the past': This filter will display content whose date is equal to or occurs after the current date, including today's date. For example, if today is July 15th, this filter will display content with a date of July 15th or any date after July 15th.

  2. '1 day before or equal to in the future': This filter will display content whose date is equal to or occurs before the current date, including today's date. For example, if today is July 15th, this filter will display content with a date of July 15th or any date before July 15th.

These date/time filters are useful when you want to present time-sensitive information to your website visitors. For example, you can use them to display upcoming events, special promotions, or time-limited offers.

Using these filters in Webflow is straightforward. In the CMS collection list settings, you can set a filter on the date/time field using the 'after' and 'before' operators and specifying the number of days relative to the current date.

If you need further assistance or examples, Webflow has a comprehensive documentation section on its website that covers the date/time field filters and provides detailed explanations and examples. The Webflow community forum is also a valuable resource where you can ask specific questions and get help from experienced Webflow users.
