Do we have a hack to auto send a greeting PM/Email to Birthday members daily?
If we do not have a hack, does anyone knows how to do this? Hope to have this feature in the next VB version. Thanks Byron |

I think this would involve running a Cronjob that hits a certain script once every day...
Not sure. |

Yep, this would in fact need a cronjob. However, I guess it would be easier to hack that the popup would appear if the user would visit the forum that day. May you could specify a time frame within the popup appears.

Personally, I would prefer an email to be send to each birthday member on each day. This will help to increase return traffic too.

I agree a birthdya message e-mailed would be a great way to "remind" then of your board! I would also be interested in this!

This code ( a real ugly piece of work) will do it BUT php won't run as a cronjob on my host.
I use a windows scheduler program to hit the script with my browser every day at Midnight. PHP Code:

I planned to revise and enhance this cron simulation feature on its own but noticed that vb3 will integrated the feature by default so dropped the project.. |
