My name has never showed up in the "Today's Birthdays" here on the main forum page. Not that it really matters. Just thought about it again after getting the Happy birthday email from The Factory five Forum. Mostly just curious as to why. Is there some setting somewhere that I don't know about?

You could just start a thread "It's my Birthday"!

Hi David,

There is a privacy setting for birthdays. I don't see your birthday when I look at your profile currently.

In the upper right corner of the site, click on Settings, then click on Edit profile. It's near the top, right under birthday.

What is yours set to? I'm pretty sure the announcement on the forums page takes birthday privacy settings into account.

:)

EDIT: Yep, just tested it with your profile and you have to set it to show day and month (at a minimum) in order to show up in the Birthday announcement on the forums page. You currently display your age only. HTH

PS Happy Birthday!
