Laravel Carbon subtract days from current date

You can always use strtotime to minus the number of days from the current date:

$users = Users::where('status_id', 'active')
           ->where( 'created_at', '>', date('Y-m-d', strtotime("-30 days"))
           ->get();

From Laravel 5.6 you can use whereDate:

$users = Users::where('status_id', 'active')
       ->whereDate( 'created_at', '>', now()->subDays(30))
       ->get();

You also have whereMonth / whereDay / whereYear / whereTime


Use subDays() method:

$users = Users::where('status_id', 'active')
           ->where( 'created_at', '>', Carbon::now()->subDays(30))
           ->get();
