I found this little bloc on a site, you can set a greeting message to display based on the time of day it is.

--------------------------------------------------------
<?php

$hour = date('G');

if($hour >= 0 && $hour <= 7)
{
        echo 'Very early, isnt it?';
}
else if($hour <= 8 && $hour <= 12)
{
        echo 'Good morning!';
}
else if($hour >= 13 && $hour <= 16)
{
        echo 'Good afternoon!';
}
else if($hour >= 17 && $hour <= 23)
{
        echo 'Good evening!';
}

?>

Cool..
been around awhile, used that years ago.

found it kinda neat, and since I know nothing of coding, figure I stick whatever I find up for others...if its something old. I'm sorry its new to me

That was a rather fun snippet

Thanks for sharing your findings 

Thanks for sharing.  I appreciate any kind of snippet since I'm not a coder by any means.

It is an old one, but I stil see it being used all over the net,  so thanks for sharing the snippet.

Is there a way to add this to the User info block? Instead of it saying "Hey user" say Good morning User?

I put this code into a block and added the {$MemberName} code but I cannot get it to work.  I've made sure it was a php block, I've not deleted anything but I cannot for the life of me understand why it will not work.  Does someone have a quick answer they could give me?

Thanks, all the code anyone can give me is great, as I know little of code myself. New or old.

First you need to define the variable you need access to as a global, then you can use it.  To do what you want, add this to the top of your snippet block:
global $user_info;

Then, you can add to the greetings at the end of the echo statement like thus:
echo 'Good evening ' . $user_info['username'] . '!';
That would produce the output with the user's username like:
Good evening Thurnok!
