Default Plugin For Birthdays and/or Intro Threads?

Does anyone know of a plugin that recognizes birthdays and sends them a pm or visitor message?

How about one for making a post for new members after they post an intro thread?

Birthday one, https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...light=birthday

Clarify more on this, " How about one for making a post for new members after they post an intro thread? "

Thank you Ozzy, I am truly grateful!

The other plugin we are seeking is to create a reply to an intro thread posted by our members.

For instance, they post a thread introducing themselves, then automatically an autobot account would reply welcoming them to the site, providing a list of links to help them navigate the site, etc. Basically an autobot sending a pre-made post as a reply to the thread in a specific forum.

What are your thoughts?

Thank you.

Why not try a mod like this, https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=305915

That will post a new thread or post, when a new user joins your site.

Hmmm, that does look very interesting, however first thing that comes to mind is how many threads it would generate for the 75 spambots that have been invading us in the middle of the night while we are sleeping? Would it make 75 welcome threads that we need to clean up on top of the spambots?

Thanks for helping me, I am truly grateful.

Like this myself, really need to take a closer look at your plugins, but as you have so many it will take me a while to go over them all
