Please see this discussion about this here, tasks are run "daily" rather then a fixed time. If your willing to setup a cron job, that might be a solution to get a specific time though.
Michael.J Posted November 2, 2015 Author Posted November 2, 2015 v1.4.1 is released and confirms support for IP.Board 4.1 and includes a few minor bug fixes.
Greg W Posted November 14, 2015 Posted November 14, 2015 (edited) Hi @Mike John We have recently set this up for posting a topic each day which is great & working well. Yes, I had the problem of what time it posts, but have overcome that by manually running the task at the right time once, then, every day, it does it at the same time. However, the problem I have is that our site is about 95% USA members and the title of the topic which is posted is in a format of yyyy-mm-dd and we would like it to be in the standard USA format of mm-dd-yyyy Where can I change this?

I haven't tested it but I believe this should do the trick. Open applications/birthdaygreeter/sources/Alerts/Alerts.php Find: \IPS\DateTime::create()->format( 'Y-m-d' ); Replace With: \IPS\DateTime::create()->localeDate(); I believe the local date should use the local date setting, if not change the format variables around to m-d-Y and I'll be sure to include this as a setting next version.

You may have some issues with DateTime using hyphens vs slash (British vs American) and localeDate() - I know this is a huge problem when using date()/strtotime() as they will interpret based on the usage of hyphens or slash. Just to keep in mind Michael.J and Aymanmha 1 1
Greg W Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 Thanks @Mike John & @VizionDev, although I am in the UK, the members are predominantly US, so I have just edited the original line to m-d-y I will find out tomorrow if it does what I want
Square Wheels Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 I like this and use it on my site. As a suggestion, embed the username as a mention, that way I can mouse over and see more info about the person.

Michael.J Posted January 29, 2016 Author Posted January 29, 2016 I'm having trouble reproducing the setting saving error locally. If someone who can reproduce can PM me forum login details to confirm my patch works? I'm having trouble reproducing the setting saving error locally.

Michael.J Posted February 1, 2016 Author Posted February 1, 2016 I've released a new version that fixes the save settings error and also adds hover profile card support to username links as well.
Lord Balandar Posted February 7, 2016 Posted February 7, 2016 Hello! I have yet to test the functionality of sending birthday greetings, but I noticed when selecting groups to exclude and saving, those groups are not re-selected after going back into the settings.

Thanks for reporting, I've included a patch with the bug report if you wanted to patch this straight away. It should be saving the settings properly but just not displaying them in the settings page.

Michael R Posted February 9, 2016 Posted February 9, 2016 Is there a way to run the app manually? For some reason there was no posting this morning.
