Sign error for "days ago"
[edit]The code
{{plural:{{Days Left|{{{end}}}}}|day|days}} {{#ifexpr:{{Days Left|{{{end}}} }} < 0|ago|left}} does not properly display when the date is in the past. It will say e.g. -2 days ago
. I think the if statement should wrap a negation of Days Left in the case where it is <0. ☆ Bri (talk) 17:20, 20 October 2025 (UTC)
- What I think is correct code is at Template:Signpost/DateCountdown/sandbox. ☆ Bri (talk) 17:34, 20 October 2025 (UTC)
