Grrr, just read through 11 pages hoping that this would be a working hack. Ah well, back to doing it manually and hoping someone makes it automatic (hint hint VB).

I installed this today. Got it all working even if I did have to dig into phrase manager to change a few bits.

Question: How do I get the signature of the automatic member who makes the post to show?

cambridgedaz - can you post what changes you had to make so to get it working?

installed the outlaw621 version works manually - will check the cron job tomorrow

The picardtux version works good but the cron job posts an hour early. I am guessing due to daylight saving time adjustments. Just go into scheduled tasks and add an hour to the time.

Does anyone know how the code in birthdaythread.php could be changed to post in an existing thread rather than creating a new one each time?

This is not to promote my work but to help people who has problem with this hack. You may wish to try Auto Birthday Greeter. It's similar to this one but supported and has no known bugs.

Is there a way to specify it not to posts for certain users? I have some users that have not been on in ages and it's pointless to make a post about them if they hav ebeen inactive for a while

Yeah, in the AdminCP, there's a setting for this:

Any chance for this to happen in latest vBulletin 3.6.8 !!!
