you need to edit the register.php file
(please make a backup before you do any changes)

FIND IN register.php:

Code:

if ($day == -1 OR $month == -1)

REPLACE WITH:

Code:

if ($day == -1 OR $month == -1 OR $year == '')

I'm guessing that should work ... not tested..

What file would this be in for users editing their profiles? I have a lot of users who did not enter their year, or will remove the year.

The only drawback about requiring a year, is that most users will lie about the year if they don't want it entered. Kind of defeats the purpose, I guess. ;)

I tried that, but was unable to locate the code to replace it?

but found it as:

Code:

                (bitwise(REGOPTION_REQBIRTHDAY, $vboptions['defaultregoptions']) AND ($day == -1 OR $month == -1))

and changed it to:

Code:

                (bitwise(REGOPTION_REQBIRTHDAY, $vboptions['defaultregoptions']) AND ($day == -1 OR $month == -1 OR $year == ''))

worked for me :)

... as for lying, that will happen anyways... if they enter a year or not.. what ya gonna do?.. if only we could verify for proof of age with a CC.

thanks for your help :)
