Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted October 12, 20222 yr Today I’ve updated to the latest version (4.7.3) and now I am sporadically receiving the following error when accessing our forums home page. Looks to be related to the calendar and/or the “Todays Birthdays” widget which we have on the home page - this is currently not appearing. Error: Call to undefined method IPS\calendar\Date::getBirthdays() (0) #0 /www/wwwroot/forums/system/Widget/Widget.php(833): IPS\calendar\widgets\_todaysBirthdays->render() #1 /www/wwwroot/forums/system/Widget/Widget.php(888): IPS\_Widget->_render() #2 /www/wwwroot/forums/system/Theme/Theme.php(885) : eval()'d code(18168): IPS\_Widget->__toString() #3 /www/wwwroot/forums/system/Theme/SandboxedTemplate.php(61): IPS\Theme\class_core_front_global->widgetContainer() #4 /www/wwwroot/forums/system/Theme/Theme.php(885) : eval()'d code(6738): IPS\Theme\_SandboxedTemplate->__call() #5 /www/wwwroot/forums/system/Theme/SandboxedTemplate.php(61): IPS\Theme\class_core_front_global->globalTemplate() #6 /www/wwwroot/forums/system/Dispatcher/Dispatcher.php(173): IPS\Theme\_SandboxedTemplate->__call() #7 /www/wwwroot/forums/system/Dispatcher/Standard.php(113): IPS\_Dispatcher->finish() #8 /www/wwwroot/forums/system/Dispatcher/Front.php(630): IPS\Dispatcher\_Standard->finish() #9 /www/wwwroot/forums/system/Dispatcher/Dispatcher.php(155): IPS\Dispatcher\_Front->finish() #10 /www/wwwroot/forums/index.php(13): IPS\_Dispatcher->run() #11 {main}
October 12, 20222 yr Of course if this is still happening with all 3rd party items disabled, please let us know
October 12, 20222 yr Author This is referencing the Todays Birthdays widget, which to my understanding is a built in feature? I have never installed a plug-in for it or anything else calendar related.

October 12, 20222 yr If you go to the support area of your admin CP, you will see an optional patch that will resolve this issue

Users still have their birthdays on their profile, seems really strange to not be able to show these on the calendar. 8 hours ago, Marc Stridgen said: If you go to the support area of your admin CP, you will see an optional patch that will resolve this issue Thanks, I have applied this which seems to have resolved the error. A little miffed we can't display users birthdays in a widget anymore, our users would use this quite heavily to recognise other users birthdays and make "happy birthday" topics.
October 12, 20222 yr This is something you would really need to post as feedback here https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/topic/469586-feature-deprecations/page/9/
