I’d like to add a date based condition to the code I have to reset the counter on every Sunday 00:00:00 but I can’t figure out how to do it.

This is what I have, but it doesn’t reset the counter to 0.

[php]//COUNT PAGEVIEWS  
function wpb\_set\_post\_views($postID) {  
$count\_key = ‘wpb\_post\_views\_count’;  
$count = get\_post\_meta($postID, $count\_key, true);  
$today = date(‘l H:i:s’);  
if($count==’’ || $today == ‘Sunday 00:00:00’) {  
$count = 0;  
delete\_post\_meta($postID, $count\_key);  
add\_post\_meta($postID, $count\_key, ‘0’);  
}else{  
$count++;  
update\_post\_meta($postID, $count\_key, $count);  
}  
}[/php]

Has anyone a clue

Thanks
