Congratulating a user that is having a birthday

[digit]

Isn't there any modification that makes us able to send an automatic email to the user when it's his birthday?

I would like to see this too...  my mods are overworked!

[Aileen]

IS there any version of this for dummies like me?

[Deaks]

hey, do you still need help with this?

I would like a way to automatically PM members with Random Birthday greetings from predesigned Templates. :-)

It should do. Make sure the first bit of code goes into load.php, as described in the first post. You'll then need to make sure the code for index.template.php goes in the index.template.php of the diblermc theme instead of the default theme.

Nice.

[Jessikard]

sorry but i´m searching for a mod like this soon

i know there is a mod  "welcome topic" and i hope someone can help me

i´m not a specialist in coding but i think if a coder could change the request to the database
like ->birthday_field instead of ->new_registration that would be perfekt

is there an way to do it ?

[agbattery]

I like this detailed information brout forth in these forums.  I cant wait to share some of my knowledge and coding experience.
