Need help with xPDO date arithmetic

I'm using the dob field to time a trial period.

I need to use getCollection() (or getCollectionGraph() ) to get the username, fullname, and email address of users who are more than 14-days old. I'll also need a reference to the user object for those users.

I could just get the modProfiles of users that meet the criteria and get the user objects with getObject(), then pull the fields directly with get(), but I suspect that a single query would be much faster.

Hi Bob

How about some variation of this?

$time = time();  
$datefilter = strtotime(date('Y-m-d', $time).' -2 weeks'); 

$c = $modx->newQuery('modUser');
$c->innerJoin('modUserProfile','Profile');
$c->where(array('Profile.dob:lt' => $datefilter));
$c->select(array('modUser.*, Profile.dob'));

$users = $modx->getCollection('modUser', $c);
