I noticed something strange with this hack and my current install of 3.5.3:
I disabled it in my AdminCP for a day... but noticed that it still posted Birthday threads.
I suspect that the Cron/scheduled task kicks in regardless, and since there's no way to "temporarily deactivate" a task (short of editing it's frequency, or deleting the task and adding it back later)... there's no way to temporarily disable this hack from doing it's job.
What I'll do now in the meantime is re-direct the posts to a hidden forum the few times I don't want it posting publicly.
But it would be nice if disabling the plug-in actually turned it off. Or if there was an on/off toggle in the setup/prefs for the add-on itself.
Has anyone else experienced this?
