"Today's Birthday" separate or something similar.

Hi!
I was wondering if there's any way to get "Today's Birthdays" separate from "Upcoming birthdays" on the front page? Or if not separate then to mark it in some way that's a bit more noticeable than just the username being bold? I find it really irritating that an ongoing birthday is still headed as "upcoming" because I end up missing members' birthdays if I just look quickly. I did see a mod on it but it didn't seem availible for SMF 2.0 RC2 which is what I'm using.

Thanks in advance!

You might consider taking a look at the mods to see how this was done or upgrade your forum to a version that a mod is available for.

Well, I would like to do that but I don't really code well enough to figure it out on my own and it seems sort of backwards to switch to an older version of SMF just to be able to use a mod that currently isn't being updated. Thanks for the tips though.

You must have missed this one.  It is for 2.0RC3 which would be an upgrade for you if you are still using RC2 as stated in your opening post.

That doesn't seem to do what I was looking for though. I want a mod where you can clearly see the difference between a birthday that's taking place atm and one that's coming, not one that separates birthdays from events. That doesn't strike me as the same thing but maybe I'm missing something.

^ just check out the info center on my forum.

I checked the package parser, and is compatible with your version.
