This is a Birthday Notification MOD. This will NOT add birthday events to the calendar, but will show them in sitenews (ServerHacker) and default.asp within the Events listing.
This mod can be used with either with or without Serverhacker's code. THIS IS BETA AND NEEDS TESTING ON REGULAR SNITZ, however I have no reason to think this should not work, see my link below for default.asp
This has only been tested with Access 2000 and MS SQL Server. This will need testing on MySQL and I would appreciate it if a MySQL user would contact me for testing.
You can see this mod on my site on the sitenews page: http://huntcentral.com/forum/sitenews.asp and http://huntcentral.com/forum/default.asp
Download Beta v2.0 Here
Fix for DBS file for SQL users (if you have Access you don't NEED this, but it wouldn't hurt in case you ever upgrade to SQL and forget about this): Download Beta v2.1 Here
Readme File:For Serverhacker Snitz Version 8
AND AS OF BETA VERSION 2.0 FOR REGULAR SNITZ 3.4.03
Initial Release - 11/17/2002 - Beta version 1.3
Prior Release - 11/18/2002 - Beta version 1.4
This Release - 11/22/2002 - Beta version 2.0
REQUIREMENTS - Red1's New Event Mod
Author - Huntress
For support, please email me at huntress@huntcentral.com
This has ONLY been tested on Access and SQL Server and forum version 3.4.03
This is still a BETA mod as it has only been tested by a few users.
Features:
=========
- Show Today's Birthdays in Events on sitenews (serverhacker only).
- Show Next 30 days worth of Upcoming Birthdays in Events on sitenews.
- Show Last 30 days worth of Recent Birthdays in Events on sitenews.
NOTE: The above is configurable by setting BdayDays in:
inc_events.asp and cal_default.asp
- Only show these birthdays for members having made posts within the last 30 days.
- Refreshs listings automatically if a user changes updates birthday in profile.
Issues:
=======
1) Needs leap year logic, will show 2/29 even if there is no 2/29 in current year.
This should be addressed within the next couple of months, I have until 1/29
to fix this ;-) What date should I show for 2/29 birthdays?
2) Will this work on MySql???? Need MySQL users to help test this, Interested?
Contact me at the email address above!
Included in this ZIP:
=====================
readme.txt This file.
inc_events.asp Code that shows Event Calendar and Birthdays in
Sitenews.asp (ServerHacker Only). This file can be
called to other webpages to show Event calendar.
cal_default.asp Code that shows Event Calendar and Birthdays in
Default.asp
cal_functions.asp Functions used by Event and Birthdays
pop_profile.asp Added update to clear working tables on DOB changes
dbs_birthdayevents.asp DBS to create (or clear) the working tables, also cleans
up from previous releases.

Install Notes:
==============
1. BACKUP YOUR EXISTING FILES!!! Here's the files to backup:
/include/inc_events.asp
pop_profile.asp
cal_default.asp
cal_functions.asp
2. Delete these files if you had previously installed prior versions of this mod:
dbs_birthdayevents_v1-3.asp
dbs_birthdayevents_v1-4.asp
3. Upload the ASP files to your forum directory.
a) pop_profile.asp, cal_default.asp and cal_functions.asp go
to the root of your forum directory
b) inc_events.asp goes to the include directory
NOTE: If you have modified any of the included
ASP files, this MOD is clearly commented,
so simply search and cut and paste into
your code. The exception to this is cal_default.asp,
MAKE SURE TO BACK THIS UP PRIOR TO INSTALL.
4. Upload the image files to your forum image directory.
5. Run Admin_mod_DBSetup.asp (ADMIN MOD in ADMIN control panel) with the supplied DBS file,
titled "Birthday Events Beta 2.0".
NOTE: If you had previously installed this mod from version 1.3, please make sure you run
the correct one. I strongly suggest you delete the file dbs_birthdayevents_v1-3.asp and
dbs_birthdayevents_v1-4.asp to avoid confusion (step 2 above).
Be kind, this is my very first mod |

If I am by chance not paying attention to this post, please stop by Serverhacker.com and this post on this mod:
http://www.serverhacker.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=854
BE VERY CLEAR THAT YOU ARE USING IT FOR REGULAR SNITZ. As posts at SH's site are going to assume you are using his modded up forum code
Thanks!

All you have to do is do a include of inc_events.asp on the page you want it to show.
Like this:
<!--#include file="include/inc_events.asp"-->
Mind the directory |

Installed it - include works fine, but birthdays do NOT show up. Also, looking at the Members_BDates table, every birthdate edited shows up as year 2003....
Carefree
Where is inc_events called? Don't see it anywhere.... |

PeeWee, is there some reason you are not providing me a link to your site? You can email it to me if you prefer. |

That is used to call it outside of the forum in your other site pages. Remember, this is for use in both Portal code as well as regular plain Snitz as indicated in the readme file |
