I've just had to disable this as it initially was posting several posts, now it's posted around 18.... why would it be posting multiple copies like this?

Notes:

The line 1 member is celebrating birthday on January 16th,2008 should read: 1 member is celebrating their birthday on January 16, 2008 in order to be grammatically correct. Also note the "th" should be removed and a space inserted after the comma, before the year.

Another thing...notice how the member information was parsed in the above quote...where it included the "-", the BBCode for the color and the member's name? The link to the member's profile was also attached to the BBCode. What I think is happening here is that your coding doesn't take into consideration the Username HTML Markup assigned to specific Usergroups. The result is the opening and closing spans are also hyperlinked with the User Profile link.

Please let me know when and if the above gets addressed...

Thanks!

Update...

Nevermind...I found the phrase and edited it. I also found the post where the same parsing problem was already addressed...my apologies...
Would you please let me know what you did to fix the link to the member's profile which is also attached to the BBCode?

This seems to work on 3.7.0 beta 5. Though an official version would be appreciated.

Hi Cyb,

Firstly, many thanks for this fantastic mod!

I have it installed and it is working fine apart from members who are in a different usergroup from 'Regular Users'. For example my mods birthdays are ignored (no greeting) as well as regular users who are a member of a second usergroup too.

Any advice?

Kind regards,

Jason

How Can I make this hack appear at the footer of my forum showing all birthdays?
