EDIT: Problem Solved!!!

[Konstantinos]

i wonder if we could make this to make a new post into a birthday thread instead of creating a new thread everyday,

[gigglegirl]

Having the same problems some others have mentioned, the birthday mod is posting the same birthday over and over starting upwards of 10 new threads a day.

cheers for the mod.

This mod is realy awesome but have 1 thing though.

Thread is only created when 1 of the Greeters comes online on the forum.
I run it on vb3.6.10.

Edit:
Seems to work fine now. Only first time it needed the greeter to come online. Now it posted automaticly.

Thnx for the great product.

I've installed this on my forum running 3.6.8 patch 2 and I'm not getting any results, I've adjusted the settings so that the forum clock and the server are in sync and still nothing?

Any pointers?

EDIT: Never mind, sorted it out now.

Many thanks, great mod
