Dragonfire's fix seems to have fixed it perfectly.

[madnessmotors]

New development. The fix listed in the first thread doesn't work when daylight savings switches back in the fall

Ok, found out the issue (even with latest release as of this posting).

Open include/functions.php
Find:

Code: Select all

if ($birth_year>1970)
      $epoch=$epoch+$epoch_Y*365-1+$leapyear;
   else
      $epoch=$epoch-$epoch_Y*365-1-$leapyear;
   return $epoch;

Change to:

Code: Select all

if ($birth_year>1970)
      $epoch=$epoch+$epoch_Y*365+$leapyear;
   else
      $epoch=$epoch-$epoch_Y*365-1-$leapyear;
   return $epoch;

The two epoch lines are the same. If your birthyear is >1970, it still subtracts 1. It should just use the epoch date as is.

Hope this helps.

This was working for me, now it's adding a day.

I think I found a solution to the problem. It seems that the round() function used in mkrealdate() does not always do what one expects. round(0.6) equals in 0 instead of 1 (at least in version 4.3.3 of php).

The following fix sovled the problem for me:

Code: Select all

   
  //$leapyear=round((($epoch_Y+2) / 4)-0.5);

  $leapyear=(($epoch_Y+2) / 4)-0.5;
  If ($leapyear-floor($leapyear) >= 0.5)
  {
   $leapyear = floor($leapyear)+1;
  }
  else
  {
   $leapyear = floor($leapyear);
  }

it displays the birthday on the calandar correctly for me, it just sends the popup 1 day early

It seems like I've got this problem after setting DST at my hosting which runs at:
Linux kernel 2.4.20-30.9
Apache 1.3.33
PHP 4.3.9
mySQL 4.0.22-standard

I've tried the following fixes:

Code: Select all

   if ($birth_year>1970)
      $epoch=$epoch+$epoch_Y*365+$leapyear;
   else
      $epoch=$epoch-$epoch_Y*365-$leapyear;
   return $epoch;

Code: Select all

   
  //$leapyear=round((($epoch_Y+2) / 4)-0.5);
 
  $leapyear=(($epoch_Y+2) / 4)-0.5;
  If ($leapyear-floor($leapyear) >= 0.5)
  {
   $leapyear = floor($leapyear)+1;
  }
  else
  {
   $leapyear = floor($leapyear);
  }

and

Code: Select all

function realdate($date_syntax="Ymd",$date=0)
{ return create_date($date_syntax,$date*86400,$board_config['board_timezone']); }


But none of those help. At the same time everything works fine at my Windows localhost.

I have just phpBB 2.0.11 and Birthday 1.5.7, no more mods.

I just noticed that I'm experiencing this as well.

I just installed this mod, and everything seems to work okay, except the correct reflection of when my birthday is.

I changed my birthdate to November 21 (the current time and date is 8:30pm pacific 11/21, which is also the setting on my board), and I didn't see my birthdate reflected at the bottom of the index.

Then I changed my birthdate to the 22nd and now it's showing my name under "Today's birthdays"

running 2.0.10
