Tell you what Valter, if you can give us a clue on how to fix this, I would be glad just to modify the mod and not worry about the bundle being upgraded.

(my birthday just passed, and alas, a day early too, so it is hopeful)

Thnx for the great mod.

My current problem is that it's post people birthdays 1 day back
and there is a problem when posting people name if they use alt symbols in there name

Code:
Happy Birthday Jeska<3
1 member is celebrating their birthday on 03-01-2011:

-[color=white">[mFc.]&nbsp]Jeska<3[/color] (born in 1988, Age: 23)


Happy Birthday!
Her name is actualy Jeska<3
I am going to change the HTML markup to Css and get back to you...

This is an awesome mod! The only thing that would make it better would be allowing selection of the Post Icon. On our forums we have special icons for birthday greetings (a cake) and I can't see an option to select that with this mod. Great work though! Will try it out!

Do you use a specifc account to post birthday greetings and if so, is this the only thing that account is used for? If so you could add a conditional to the template so that if a specific user was the poster, then your cake post icon would be used.

Of course it would be nice to have the option added to this mod, but the above is a manual way to get it done in the meantime.
