Adriano Faria Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 File Name: Enhanced Birthday Listing File Submitter: Adriano Faria File Submitted: 13 Jan 2013 File Category: User and Social Engagement Supported Versions: IP.Board 3.4.x, IP.Calendar 3.3.x This hook will give more control to board's administrator in birthday listing (board index sidebar hook and calendar). Now admin can: Choose Birthday List position: Sidebar (default IPS Hook) or below Board Index Online Users list Choose if wants to show member's age in birthday list Choose if he wants to show group color on user links Specify the number of birthday users to show on Sidebar Specify the limit (in days) to prevent inactive members (based in member's last activity) from being listed in birthday list Choose which user groups can appear in birthday list here to download this file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy Shelton Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 I just installed this and I'm having a couple problems. 1. It is not filtering out by recent activity. It's giving me a list of all members (in the not excluded groups) who have a birthday today. 2. When I have the list appear in the sidebar, then click the link to see all the day's birthdays, it pulls up that calendar day but the block showing birthdays shows no one is celebrating a birthday that day. It is doing a very good job at NOT showing members' ages, though! (Very important for my forum.) Do I need to change settings elsewhere in IPS for this to work correctly?

Adriano Faria Posted February 1, 2013 Author Share Posted February 1, 2013 Really weird. Did you do what's requested on HTML file of this hook ? 1 - Birthday list is based on Calendar Cache. So if even after you change the settings and no change is noted in board index, visit the System tab in your Admin CP and then go to Cache Management. Click in Calendar tab and then click in Recache Cache in birthday line. PM me with your board URL and credentials, so I can take a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy Shelton Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Recached birthdays and all the calendar caches. I've PM'd you the info you requested. Our board is one that we imported from vBulletin last week. Could the fact that it's an import and not created directly in IPS be affecting anything?

Amy Shelton Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Have you had a chance to look into why this hook isn't filtering out members based on inactivity? I really don't need to be displaying 190 member birthdays today, many of whom haven't been active for quite awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adriano Faria Posted February 3, 2013 Author Share Posted February 3, 2013 No, not yet. I don't do it weekends. I'll take a look tomorrow in the morning, sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't need to be displaying 190 member birthdays today, many of whom haven't been active for quite awhile. Just sent you a new version to test... Let me know if it's ok, so I can update the file here on IPS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adriano Faria Posted February 8, 2013 Author Share Posted February 8, 2013 I'm working on a new version. Will be released soon. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy Shelton Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Thanks, Adriano! My members are getting anxious, as they love having a little mini-birthday-celebration every day in recognition of our currently active members. Unfortunately, we have a few members for whom this may be the only recognition they receive for their birthday. Sad. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sledgstone Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Is this mod working correctly? I see the last update for the file was Jan 28 2013. I'm interested in getting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adriano Faria Posted March 10, 2013 Author Share Posted March 10, 2013 Better not buy it yet. We (me and 3 other users) are fully testing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheAjarn Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Yep, I will also buy it once it's fixed. Don't want previous members (which is it's own rank) from showing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
