It used to be possible to add your birthday in your profile without including the year. But I've now discovered that, since recent upgrades by our hosts, Forumotion, your Profile platform will not accept your birthday without the year. By entering only the day and month, you will receive a dialogue box that tells you - (words to this effect) - "this forum does not accept members older than 200 years" BUT I can do it for you individually..... If you would like your Zodiac sign to display in your profile and beside your posts but not for your year of birth nor your age to be displayed, please send me a private message with your birthday - without the year - and I'll enter it on your behalf.
If you have already entered your birthday and the year or your age is displayed, and would prefer this not to be so - please let me know, and I'll remove the year.
Members who had entered their birthdays - day and month only, before March this year - that will remain as such - until you ever need to update your profile for any other reason. In which case it will ask you for the year of birth. If that occurs - just let me know and I'll fix it!!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Carole, Smith Project/Smith Chat Admin www.smithfamilies.org.uk Nothing is too small to know, and nothing too big to attempt (William Van Horne) |

| October 2010: The Notice above has been slightly altered. The reference to displaying birthdays on the Calendar has been removed, as the Calendar is now de-activated. However, your birhday and Zodiac sign will continue to be displayed in your Profile, and your Zodiac sign by the side of your posts. Birthdays coming up within the "next 14 days" are always displayed at the foot of the main Forums Index page ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Carole, Smith Project/Smith Chat Admin www.smithfamilies.org.uk Nothing is too small to know, and nothing too big to attempt (William Van Horne) |
