Buddy Birthdays on Calendar · **Released**: 05-07-2002

[ Feature Description ]
For larger boards, it's hard to locate birthdays you really care about on the Calendar. What this hack does is highlight and put a graphical exclamation mark next to all buddy birthdays! Even users on smaller boards will find it useful as it's easy to notice when upcoming buddy birthdays are right from the calendar. This hack adds one simple database query and an string search function so it should not really add any load to your server.

[ What you need to modify/add ]
Files to modify: calendar.php (2 times)
Template to modify: none
Templates to add: none

[ Tested on ]
vBulletin versions 2.2.0 - 2.2.5 (should work fine on 2.2.6)

[ Example ]

The red arrows point to members on my buddy list.

Enjoy and as always, comments are appreciated!

Hey! Nice one. I think this would be very useful for those with large boards.

I may install it later! Thanks for the nice hack!

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
