Thanks you Cyb :)

However, i've a litlle problem :

Quote:

2 members are celebrating their birthday on %08/%01/%2008:

-Akan (born in 1984, Age: 24)
-Maria (born in 1985, Age: 23)


Happy Birthday!
The date displays some "%". Any idea ? Thank you ;)

What a wonderful hack! :up:
Especially the service to edit the phrases from the ACP - Addon!
This alone and the easy way to integrate it deserves a huge applause!
Nice work! :up:

Great mod! One question though ...How do I force the mod to check for birthdays (for testing purposes)?

Firstly, Another great mod thanks Cyb..

However, my server is in the US and I'm in Australia. this is what I have set the time to:

Server Time:
September 30, 2007 18:02

Time used by hack:
October 1, 2007 06:02

But it is still 3 hours behind and +12 is as far as the hack will allow. Is it possible to add more time difference setting to help. If this hack post as it is set now people will be seeing the happy birthday thread at 9:00 pm the day before..

Cheers.

Nathan.

I'm having the same time as Nathan.

Server Time:
January 15, 2008 03:29

Time used by hack:
January 15, 2008 15:29

However it's Jan 15 at 21.33 at the moment, so i need more than just the +12 as well.

I have this mod installed on 3.6.8 PL2...

When it creates the thread, this is what's posted:

Quote:

1 member is celebrating birthday on January 16th,2008:

-[color="red"]Saviour[/color] (born in 1958, Age: 50)


Happy Birthday!
Notes:

The line 1 member is celebrating birthday on January 16th,2008 should read: 1 member is celebrating their birthday on January 16, 2008 in order to be grammatically correct. Also note the "th" should be removed and a space inserted after the comma, before the year.

Another thing...notice how the member information was parsed in the above quote...where it included the "-", the BBCode for the color and the member's name? The link to the member's profile was also attached to the BBCode. What I think is happening here is that your coding doesn't take into consideration the Username HTML Markup assigned to specific Usergroups. The result is the opening and closing spans are also hyperlinked with the User Profile link.

Please let me know when and if the above gets addressed...

Thanks!

Update...

Nevermind...I found the phrase and edited it. I also found the post where the same parsing problem was already addressed...my apologies...

Mum 01-16-2008 05:21 PM

Really hoping someone can fix the +hours for me :)

Valter 01-17-2008 12:21 AM

Saviour, check your date settings in vBulletin Options.

GuaRRand 02-15-2008 07:08 AM

could you make a "preview message" option when you edit the message etc..?
Now you only see how it looks when someone is actually celebrating their birthday... and when it looks crap..ur to late :D

caradwyn 02-21-2008 12:49 PM

I have installed this, thank you! Now my users won't get all huffy and upset for my forgetting to post their birthday thread!

atlambros83 02-21-2008 05:52 PM

I forgot about this....I installed it but it never worked. I added it to my forums 2 days before my own birthday (so i could test it, of course lol) and nothing ever happened. :-(

Shazz 02-21-2008 11:09 PM

Your getting more creative cyb :)
<3

BellyBelly 02-29-2008 11:25 AM

I've just had to disable this as it initially was posting several posts, now it's posted around 18.... why would it be posting multiple copies like this?

Would you please let me know what you did to fix the link to the member's profile which is also attached to the BBCode?

militarytuners 03-02-2008 09:44 PM

I'll try out this cool feature

Singularity 03-03-2008 11:42 AM

This seems to work on 3.7.0 beta 5. Though an official version would be appreciated.

jasonuk 04-10-2008 06:28 AM

Hi Cyb,

Firstly, many thanks for this fantastic mod!

I have it installed and it is working fine apart from members who are in a different usergroup from 'Regular Users'. For example my mods birthdays are ignored (no greeting) as well as regular users who are a member of a second usergroup too.

Any advice?

Kind regards,

Jason

roalaik 04-10-2008 07:27 AM

How Can I make this hack appear at the footer of my forum showing all birthdays?

Truestyle 04-22-2008 07:26 AM

Thanks for an easy installable and good working mod :)

*Installed*

princeedward 06-08-2008 07:15 AM

BUMP!

:(

EDIT: Problem Solved!!!


;)

Konstantinos 07-20-2008 06:43 AM

i wonder if we could make this to make a new post into a birthday thread instead of creating a new thread everyday,

gigglegirl 07-29-2008 10:48 PM

Having the same problems some others have mentioned, the birthday mod is posting the same birthday over and over starting upwards of 10 new threads a day.

nandalinnaung 08-19-2008 07:37 AM

cheers for the mod.

CarpHunter 09-14-2008 03:23 PM

This mod is realy awesome but have 1 thing though.

Thread is only created when 1 of the Greeters comes online on the forum.
I run it on vb3.6.10.

Edit:
Seems to work fine now. Only first time it needed the greeter to come online. Now it posted automaticly.

Thnx for the great product.

Peejay 10-26-2008 06:51 AM

I've installed this on my forum running 3.6.8 patch 2 and I'm not getting any results, I've adjusted the settings so that the forum clock and the server are in sync and still nothing?

Any pointers?

EDIT: Never mind, sorted it out now.

Many thanks, great mod :D

cindy helmond 02-09-2010 06:40 PM

hyppa 11-27-2010 10:33 AM
