Select results inclusively based on NOW() My query is the following:

SELECT count(db.user_data.page_url) AS total_urls, db.authors.author
FROM db.authors
LEFT JOIN db.user_data ON db.authors.author_id = db.user_data.id
WHERE (db.user_data.date &gt; (now() - INTERVAL 30 MINUTE))
AND db.user_data.domain LIKE '%example.com%'
GROUP BY author;


It returns all results between now() and last 30 minutes, that's fine. But those results are based on period (interval) of 30 minutes starting from current moment (in seconds).

How to select all rows based on now() - INTERVAL 30 MINUTE ,but including all results from the last 30-th minute inclusively? Because now the interval is "moving" by current moment + 30 last minutes.
So each new second I am getting different results, because of "sliding", "moving" interval?
Subtract the seconds part of NOW() from the value of NOW() and you will get the timestamp marking the beginning of the current minute. Now you can subtract your interval to get the beginning of the minute that was 30 minutes ago:

WHERE (date > (NOW() - INTERVAL SECOND(NOW()) SECOND - INTERVAL 30 MINUTE))
