This hack allowed your forum members to send a congratulation email to the other members in there birthdays

I got the idea from Freddie's hack


:)

very nice idea!

Just a couple of typos in the birth.style templates:

in brth_send: "the congratulation ema[high]i[/high]l was sent" (i missing)

in brth_error: "sorry you can't send more th[high]a[/high]n one congratulation email" (should be a, not e).

Cheers,

Bira

good hack :D

Any place we can view this at?

But what if there are several birthdays on one day, and I want to send a congratulation to just that one or two particular persons?

Is there anyway that this email can be sent automatically from the forum and then the individual users will be able to click the link?

I think I may have done something wrong - there seems to be one minor glitch.

When a member receives an email, the subject comes out as: "<!-- BEGIN TEMPLATE: brth_sub --> " and the first 2 lines of the message are:

Happy Birthday!!!
<!-- END TEMPLATE: brth_sub -->

Now in the brth_sub template I only have "Happy Birthday!!!"

Is there a way to correct the subject?

Also, one other thing that I don't know if anyone can help me with. My host's email address comes up as the "from", and not mine. Is there a way to change that to be my address?

Thanks!

I uploaded the original files for birth.php and birth.style and still get the same subject line. :)

Should I uninstall and reinstall br_install.php?

nice :)

installing in a few :)

where would I click the link?
btw LOVE the hack (LOL!)

Great hack. Thanks:)
Running 2.2.1 here.
Anyone else with 2.2.1 may have to go to birth.php

add this:

error_reporting(7);

after this:

<?php

Working great here.

Are my users morons or this hack uses admin email? Some days I get dozens of thank you notes from the same guy. I am assuming that other users are sending him congratulations.

Is there a version for php3. The board I am running was setup with php3.

Thanks,
Netman

I look up Hack, which a user the birthday has automatic PM or E-Mail from the board gets?

Thank you for this nice hack.

I am getting the following error while installing this hack when I ran br_install.php through the browser. Please help me.

Unable to add cookies, header already sent.
File: /usr/home/affprograms/websites/affcommunity.com/affcomm/admincp/br_install.php

FYI, this already is default in 3.0 and beyond, and this hack is for vBulletin 2.

How we can find this hack as default in 3.0?
