Birthday, User Age and Zodiac Hack v1.2 (Working Version)

Birthday, User Age and Zodiac Hack (Working Version)
Version 1.2 by Boofo (and Logician)

A very big Thank You goes out to Logician for helping to make this hack a reality. Without his expert coding and guidance, it would never have been. And a thank you also goes out to Slynderdale for giving me the idea to make this hack. Although I could never get his hack to work, it gave me some general ideas of where to start from.

What this hack does:

This will allow you to have the user's age, zodiac sign and chinese zodiac sign in the profile. It will also allow you to have the variable filled in instead of showing nothing if no information was entered.

(NOTE: This birthday code will also fix the problem that some people have encountered with the birthdate not displaying the correct date if the users birthday was before December 31, 1969. This was only reported to happen on a few installations on certain servers.)

Version 1.0 - Originally written for vBulletin 2.2.5 without the images showing.
Version 1.1 - Updated to work with vBulletin 2.2.9 and added images for the zodiac signs.
Version 1.2 - Updated the instruction file to avoid anyone changing the wrong birthday code.

This hack has been tested on version 2.2.9.

Files to edit: 1 (root/member.php)
Files to upload: 12 (zodiac image files)
Templates to Edit: 1 (getinfo)

Plus theres alot less code, heres an example:

PHP Code:

  if (!isset($bday) or !$bday) $bday = explode("-",$post[birthday]);
  if (date("Y")>$bday[0] and $bday[0]>1901 && $bday[0]!='0000') {
    $userage= date("Y") - ($bday[0]+1); 
    if ((date("m")==$bday[1] and $bday[2]<=date("d")) or date("m")>$bday[1])
      $userage=$userage+1; 
    $zodiac_chinese_array = array("Rooster","Dog","Pig","Rat","Ox","Tiger","Hare","Dragon","Snake","Horse","Goat","Monkey");
    $zodiacbit=$bday[0]%12;
    eval("\$zodiac[chinese] = \"".gettemplate("zodiac_chinese_".strtolower(trim($zodiac_chinese_array[$zodiacbit-1])))."\";");
  }
  if ($bday[1]!='00' and $bday[1]>0 and $bday[2]!='00' and $bday[2]>0) {
      $zodiac_astro_array = array("Aries","Taurus","Gemini","Cancer","Leo","Virgo","Libra","Scorpio","Sagittarius","Capricorn","Aquarius","Pisces");
      $zodiac_month = array(
        start => array("3","4","5","6","7","8","9","10","11","12","1","2"),
        end => array("4","5","6","7","8","9","10","11","12","1","2","3")
      );
      $zodiac_day = array(
        start => array("21","20","21","22","23","23","23","23","22","22","20","19"),
        end => array("19","20","21","22","22","22","22","21","21","19","18","20")
      );
      for($i=0;$i<12;$i++) { 
        $month['start'] = $zodiac_month['start'][$i];
        $month['end'] = $zodiac_month['end'][$i];
        $day['start'] = $zodiac_day['start'][$i];
        $day['end'] = $zodiac_day['end'][$i];
        if($bday[1] == $month['start'] and $bday[2] >= $day['start'] or $bday[1] == $month['end'] and $bday[2] <= $day['end']) {
        eval("\$zodiac[astro] = \"".gettemplate("zodiac_astro_".strtolower(trim($zodiac_astro_array[$i])))."\";");
        break;
        }
      }
  } 


It works too, this hack boofo release was version 1.o of my code after he made small edits to it, the code was almost identicle though, So you can use Boofo's fix of version 1.0 of my code or mu version 2.0 code. Both work.

hi
I changed it but nothing appaer now !

[Boofo]

If they don't enter a birth year, there won't be an age. Check to see if they have entered their birth year.

Are you trying to put the age in the postbit or getinfo template?

[SmartGnome]

Looks good boofo. Will try to install it later

[Boofo]

Ok, I guess I'm not understanding you here. In order for the age to show up, they must ALSO enter a year of birth, not just the date. Have they done that? Can you attach a picture of what it looks like here?

Boofo the same with me. Birthday is entered, images are in images/zodiac

No zodiac img, no zodiac names and no age displayed.

Did I forgot something ??? Update a counter fi
