Well, for anyone who is interested in at least one way to allow members to modify their Birthdays in their profile, I futzed around and found a way that works, without changing the "Require Birthday" option. Go to AdminCP >> Search In Templates for "Birthday". Then, under the Modify User Options Templates open the "modify profile_birthday" template (in the Master Style if you want all styles fixed). At the very top of that template find:
<vb:if condition="$show['birthday_readonly']">
and change it to <vb:if condition="$show['birthday_notreadonly']"> (which will not be met when they go into their profile page), so they will now be able to change their Birthday. I did this because when I imported from another BB system, the Birthdays did not transfer correctly so now my existing users from the old forum system can update their profiles to correct their birth dates and also new members registering are still required to provide a Birthday.
Hope this is helpful so some.
Basil
