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)?

In next version I'll add an option to adjust this (set +/- x hours from server time).

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...

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

Saviour, check your date settings in vBulletin Options.

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

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

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. :-(
