# If Statement?

 * Hello,
 * I’m trying to create an if statement to check wether a post has been posted in
   a specific month/year. I’m not that proficient with inbuilt functions :/
 *     ```
       if(in_month(get_the_ID(), $filter['month']) && in_year(get_the_ID(), $filter['year'])) {
            // My code here
       }
       ```
   
 * Obviously, in_month and in_year are fictional wordpress functions, but you get
   the idea of what I’m trying to achieve.
 * Thanks.

       if( get_the_time('n') == $month && get_the_time('Y') == $year ) {
       // your code here
       }
       ```
   
 * define the variables $month and $year before that snippet.

 * Ah, get_the_time() is the function I was looking for 🙂
 *     ```
       if(get_the_time('F') == $filter['month'] && get_the_time('Y') == $filter['year']) {
       	// My code here
       }
       ```
   
 * Worked great.
