I tried this mod on SMF: 2.0 RC3 but the text tags below are not showing on the registration page. Does anyone have any idea what I can replace them with? My forum is in French.

      <strong>', $txt['dob'], '</strong><br />
      <span class="smalltext">', $txt['dob_year'], ' - ', $txt['dob_month'], ' - ', $txt['dob_day'], '</span>


Update:

I checked the tags in the Profile.french.php file and they are the same as the ones on the mod so I don't understand what could be wrong. ???

$txt['dob'] = 'Date de naissance';

$txt['dob_month'] = 'Mois (MM)';

$txt['dob_day'] = 'Jour (JJ)';

$txt['dob_year'] = 'Année (AAAA)';


Update 2:

I don't know if I did the right thing but I added the text strings above in Modifications.french.php and it fixed my problem. I didn't notice any bug with either the registration page or the profile page with those strings in 2 language files but if someone has a better solution, let me know.  :)

I don't see how to make it a drop down. Oh, 2.0 RC5.  I went to your site and registered Afro and didn't see either field day or month.  I just went to the profile on here and it has Birthday.....some one needs to share LOL
If I knew what I was doing, I would not be here asking question!  If I were a programmer, I would not need you!

Ok, This works on the member registration, but not on administrator's new member registration.

As an administrator I already have a list of members I need to add and assign group member, their birthday, and maybe their avatars image.

So I need to do it from the admin page -> Members -> Register New Member.

Otherwise I have to update their profile after I add them. Which will be a lot of work. I'm looking for the fastest way to do this.

I noticed the fields smf use are : bday3 for year, bday1 for month, and bday2 for date. I tried to add these fields on the form and post it, but it doesn't work.

Any idea?

Go to
Administration Center » Core Features >> Advanced Profile Fields (enable it)



Then go to
Administration Center » Features and Options » Profile Fields >> Add new field there and adjust options as per your liking.

That will require some coding, open a new thread someone might help you there, as this thread is already marked as solved.
