Hi, i've installed this mods and entered my birthday in my profile.
But it doesn't show it correctly!
I entered October 26 but it shows 25 in my profile?
Hi there:)
I've downloaded this birthday mod,..
but i have no idea in what folder i have to upload it and how to get the mod working wel..
How does this compare to the one by Neils? Does it not have as bad an effect on forum speed?
Code: Select all
## Although Niels Chr. Denmark's ever-popular Birthday Hack already does that
## which this MOD attempts to do, it does have a number of problems that this
## MOD seeks to remedy.
##
## 1. It isn't validated and hasn't been subjected to a security audit by the
## phpBB MOD Team.
## 2. It saves the birthdate by saving the number of seconds that have elapsed
## since January 1, 1970 to the date in question. This is an inefficient use
## of memory and of storage.
## 3. As a consequence of (2), members *must* specify a birth year, thereby
## effectively telling the world how old they are. This will probably
## disuade some members from using the feature when they might have otherwise
## done so.

What about at the bottom of the forum on the main page?

You mean in the memberlist? If so, then nope. My MOD doesn't add anything, there. If enough people want that to be done, though, it's certainly a feature that can be added.

That only shows up if someone has a birthday. You can confirm this by setting your birthday to the current date.

It's not a problem I've encountered, but off hand, I'd guess that it has to do with timezones. I'll try to look into it within the next few days.
