Through this code you can set any code for Time Well to show something like: 1 second ago, 5 minutes ago, 3 weeks ago, six months ago or eight years ago.

Date and time format of the jet should thus: 2016-08-28 15:47:01

Date&Time Format For PHP: date("Y-m-d h:i:sa");

File: timeago.php

Code:
<?php
 function time_stamp($time_ago)
 { 
 $cur_time=time();
 $time_elapsed = $cur_time - $time_ago; 
 $seconds = $time_elapsed ; 
 $minutes = round($time_elapsed / 60 );
 $hours = round($time_elapsed / 3600); 
 $days = round($time_elapsed / 86400 ); 
 $weeks = round($time_elapsed / 604800); 
 $months = round($time_elapsed / 2600640 ); 
 $years = round($time_elapsed / 31207680 ); 
 // Seconds
 if($seconds <= 60)
 {
 echo "$seconds seconds ago"; 
 }
 //Minutes
 else if($minutes <=60)
 {
 
   if($minutes==1)
   {
   echo "one minute ago"; 
   }
   else
   {
    echo "$minutes minutes ago"; 
   }
 
 }
 //Hours
 else if($hours <=24)
 {
 
   if($hours==1)
   {
   echo "an hour ago";
   }
   else
   {
   echo "$hours hours ago";
   }
 
 }
 //Days
 else if($days <= 7)
 {
 
 if($days==1)
   {
   echo "yesterday";
   }

   {
   echo "$weeks weeks ago";
   }
 
 }
 //Months

 {
 
   if($months==1)
   {
   echo "a month ago";
   }
   else
   {
   echo "$months months ago";
   }
 
 }

As a PHP noob, I was just about to post a thread asking if you could get a result returned from another php script, but your post has answered the question without me having to post. Thanks very much.
