Posted March 8, 20222 yr With this plugin you can customize the birthday listing (in Calendar view and in the Today's Birthdays widget) to only show members on their birthday that meet the following criteria: Content Item Count Reputation Points Achievements Points Active in the latest X days Groups
October 4, 20222 yr Author This resource will create a new birthday widget to display birthdays in the following way: - Current day +3 days in the vertical mode (sidebar): - Current day +7 days in horizontal mode (top or bottom): - Widget configuration: Marketplace listing will be updated when IPS 4.7.3 is out. Price will increase due to new features/additions. Edited October 4, 20222 yr by Adriano Faria
October 13, 20222 yr Hi, with the changes in IPS 4.7.3 that have removed the Todays Birthdays widget, will this plugin bring that functionality back?

The newest version pending approval works with 4.7.3. It brings back the birthday widget AND even shows multiple days. (It does not use the calendar system to get data so it can work in the new version.) Check out the screenshots above. 🙂 There is a sidebar and a wider version of the widget. (This app was originally custom developed for me, so it also has some filtering requirements I had.) Rumor has it that Adrian is also working on a birthday full page display (that may possibly just happen to coincidentally look like a calendar as well).
October 20, 20222 yr Author What's New in Version 1.0.1: IPS 4.7.3+ ONLY! Add a widget to display birthdays
November 15, 20222 yr Hi, Thank you for this plug-in. For us it fills the gap that IPS left with the latest updates. We've just purchased it for our forums and I've got a few suggestions if I may? -1- Ability to give custom block title. "Birthday Members" is a little odd for English speaking countries. -2- Ability to only display the current day -3- Ability to hide the block if there are no birthdays on the current day (in combination with point -2-)

November 15, 20222 yr Yes, thank you for that. I did manage to find it and hoped to edit my post before you replied, but you are too quick! 👍

November 21, 20222 yr Hi again, the updated widget works perfectly for us, thank you very much! One more suggestion if I may? On the previous widget, the user shown to have a birthday was 'clickable'. I.e. you could click through to the user's profile from the widget. Something to consider for the next revision?

Are you saying the name or profile photo isn’t a link to the profile?
November 21, 20222 yr Well... it was when I was asked about it by one of the Moderators and I checked before I put the suggestion here. I've just checked again and it does link to a profile. Not sure what happened now...

November 21, 20222 yr Yes, like I said, it is weird that it wasn't working, but it is now... We'll keep an eye on it

January 2, 20232 yr If you use the widget in the sidebar, and there are 18 birthdays on a particular day (as an example), how many will display? Any updates on a birthday page? I'm very disappointed in IPS in removing the calendar feature. It was one of the items that set them apart from Xenforo, and losing the ability to see birthdays is a huge setback for engagement. I'm sure some big corporate sponsor wanted it removed, and it will now be labeled as something most of us asked for.

Ugh, sorry, I see I had it set to 1. I changed it to 999 and now a lot (site has over 10k members) showed up. For a future update, could the widget have a scrollbar? Thank you

Dropped. 6 hours ago, Square Wheels said: I changed it to 999 and now a lot (site has over 10k members) showed up. For a future update, could the widget have a scrollbar? No scrollbar. This is how like any other widget out there. I will decrease the max limit to 25 or 50. Anyway, you’re free to do what you want in your install.
