hiya

I have a question

Is it possible to disable just the year-mask in profil ?

I have a lot of elder users who find the idea of celebrating b'day great, but they don't necessarily want the others to know how old they actually are.
(search me - I am proud to be 51 - )

I've searched on phpbb.de, but couldn't find anything, so maybe someone here could help me?

Thanks in advance

regards
Nym

Ditto - replying in the hope that this'll bump the question back up.

I'd like to display the day and month, but not the year of birthdays.

Any tips?

does anyone know how to do this? I am an administrator on a RPG Forum. We would like to add the birthday ability with the pop-up upon log-in, but we don't want ages appearing next to their names since these are characters and not the real person behind it.

Exactly... this would be a great idea.

Sadness that this was never answered, as I am also very eager to know. I have sought help at phpbbhacks.com, but no one there can help.

Here we go now... let me try to solve your problem.

All you have to do is the following...

Code: Select all

#
#-----[ OPEN ]---------------------------------------------
#
includes\usercp_viewprofile.php

#
#-----[ FIND ]---------------------------------------------
#
   $user_birthday = realdate($lang['DATE_FORMAT'], $profiledata['user_birthday']);

#
#-----[ REPLACE WITH ]--------------------------------------
#

//   $user_birthday = realdate($lang['DATE_FORMAT'], $profiledata['user_birthday']);
   $user_birthday = realdate('j. M', $profiledata['user_birthday']);

#
#-----[ SAVE/CLOSE ALL FILES ]------------------------------------------
#
# EoM

Descriptions:
j => day of the month without leading zero
M => name of the month (first 3 letters)

This is just an example. Feel free to costumize... easy

Danka Now I may use that, but first let me ask...

Instead of getting rid of the year altogether, I've managed to get rid of most places on the forum where the birth year or age would be shown. The only thing I still need help with is the user profile. Is there any way to show only the birthdate and month on a profile?

Is there any way to show only the birthdate and month on a profile?

Sorry, but I can't follow... where is the difference?

My little hack (see above) seems to be exactly that what you want.
