ah good im not the only one with this thing not working.

Well I just tested this again and it worked for me using the above method to make it work as I posted.

I cant wait for the next VB update, so this issue can be resolved.

I feel confident that it will work after the fix is published, like it should.

I did your change and set a birthday to occur 2 days after the change and still nothing. I don't think cached data (in this case) had any effect in it NOT working...

:(

The birthday mod finally worked but problem is the time of thread. I set it to -2 as I am central time and want to catch all west coast birthdays. It supposed to place a thread at 2 am but instead posts it at 12.48pm the afternoon of the birthday.

Anyone explain why?? Argh!

I have a unique issue. Because we are picky about silly details, we use classes to color user group names. I didnt like that when you mouse over a name, it uses the default hover link color to underline instead of the username color. Adding classes in the style fixed that.

So, the problem is that when the auto birthday thread is made for a user group that isnt using the default color, it posts color="moderator" instead of the actual color.

How could we fix this and keep the CSS classes for our usergroups?

I ran into the same problem today when I installed it it says

Has anyone figured out a way to fix this.

Remove spaces from usergroup tags.

That's how it shows up in the post.

This is my code in usergroups <span style="color: green;font-weight: bold;"> (just so happened to be someones birthday when I tested it.)

So why would It show like that.

<span style="color: green;font-weight: bold;">
should be:
<span style="color:green;font-weight:bold;">

Just remove extra spaces.

well Ill see when midnight hits on the forums I took every space out I could find in all usergroups.
