Question SW KBirthday Module support & news

I saw the 'its x's birthday today' but no thread was created in the forum.

I did further testing and I need an exorcist :laugh: :laugh:

I still have problems but I found some strange behavior.


Created a TEST user and maked the following checks:

Setting date of birth 16/03/1980 is correclty displayed "TEST birthday is in 2 days"

Setting date of birth 15/03/1980 is correclty displayed "TEST birthday is in 1 day"

Setting date of birth 14/03/1979 birthday is not shown.
Setting date of birth 14/03/1980 birthday is correctly displayed "TEST birthday is today"
I try whit 1976 1980 1984 1988 1992 1996 , is th same.
The problem is the leap year. If a user is birth in a leap year is correclty displayed and thread is created, If not, birthday are not displayed.


In my case i have also another problem.
Setting the date of birth 14/03/1980 "TEST birthday is today" is displayed and the thread is created with the happy birthday. But at every refresh or access to the pages of forun is created a new thread with the happy birthday for the same user. If i set english language only one thread is created.
I supose i must rewrite it-IT.mod_sw_kbirthday.ini

ciao


[EDIT]

I have translated the en-GB.mod_sw_kbirthday.ini and saved as UTF-8
it-IT.mod_sw_kbirthday.ini.
if i dont select language or i select language it-IT i have the problem of "multi threads"
With en-GB selected only one thread is posted.
I dont know wher is the problem the two files are the same (of course excluding translation), same permissions. Activated debug mod and no error displayed

Have you played with the multilanguage options of the module?

@psymon What Version you are using? The J 1.5 or the J 1.6+?

yes, i played

in this configuration



subject are in EN and only one thread is created with message in IT and EN

in this one



subject are in IT and multi-thread problem is present. Message is in IT and EN

My config : J 1.5.25, CB 1.7.1, Kunena 1.7.1, PHP Version 5.3.2


[EDIT]
tryed to set language in English and save the en-GB.mod_sw_kbirthday.ini with the exactly content of it-IT.mod_sw_kbirthday.ini.
Same multi-thread problem. Now i think that the problem is in my translation file... i wrote something not allowed... but the translation of module are correctly displayed without any problem

I configured it that way and it works perfect. Perhaps this will help you. And at all it supports german language, even english language is on.

Not sure what happened here and if it has been discussed before we have been running the birthday module with J1.5.25 and K1.6.2 it has been upgraded during its use as it was still missing certain birthdays. However today it did not miss the birthday but repeated putting in kunena about 300 threads in about an hour. fortunately i tried to get onto the site,, it would not let me with normal links but typing in the website address i saw there was a large number of threads and disabled the module, any ideas what this could have been
