Add 7 days to delivery date

Question

I want to add delivery data to order emails which will be 7 days after the order is created. Inside Mage_Sales_Model_Order::getCreatedAtFormated() function, following code returns order created date like November 29, 2015 7:04:52 PM IST

Mage::helper('core')->formatDate($this->getCreatedAtStoreDate(), $format, true);

If I'm using Mage::helper('core')->formatDate($this->getCreatedAtStoreDate()+(7*24*60*60), $format, true);, it's not returning correct result.

Answer 1

You can get order date with:

$date = Mage::app()->getLocale()->storeDate(
    $order->getStore(),
    Varien_Date::toTimestamp($order->getCreatedAt()) + (7*24*60*60),
    true,
    $format
);

Where $format is optional.

Assuming that the $order is Mage_Sales_Model_Order instance, the $date is Zend_Date instance which could be easily casted to string.

Answer 2

Need an customer email from the last 7 days through the created date
