Codezwiz >> Forums >> General PHP Nuke Help >> BIRTHDAY SELECT PULLDOWN MENUS+

I believe this is the code I have to adjust so it collects day month and year from select pulldown menus. I believe you guys already have this installed in your site. How much would you charge me to get a copy of brown earth code as I don't know how to do it.

// find the birthday values, reflected by the $lang['Submit_date_format']
if ($birthday || !$board_config['min_user_age']) //if a birthday is submited, then validate it
{
for ($i=0;$i<=strlen($lang['Submit_date_format']);$i++)
{
switch ($lang['Submit_date_format'][$i])
{
case d: $day=$birthday_lengt;$date_count++;
$birthday_lengt++;break;
case m: $md=$birthday_lengt;$date_count++;
$birthday_lengt++;break;
case Y: $year=$birthday_lengt;$date_count++;
$birthday_lengt=$birthday_lengt+3;break;
}
$birthday_lengt++;
}
// did we find both day,month and year
if ($date_count<3)
{
$error = TRUE;
if( isset($error_msg) )$error_msg .= "<br />";
$error_msg .= $lang['Wrong_birthday_format'];
} else
{
$day=$birthday[$day].$birthday[$day+1];
$md=$birthday[$md].$birthday[$md+1];
$year=$birthday[$year].$birthday[$year+1].$birthday[$year+2].$birthday[$year+3];
$user_age=(date('md')>=$md.$day) ? date('Y') - $year : date('Y') - $year - 1 ;
// Check maximum user age
if ($user_age>$board_config['max_user_age']) $md=13 ;
// Check minimum user age
if ($user_age<$board_config['min_user_age']) $md=13 ;
if (!checkdate($md,$day,$year))
{
$error = TRUE;
if( isset($error_msg) )$error_msg .= "<br />";
$error_msg .= $lang['Not_old_enough'];
} else
{
$birthday = ($error) ? $birthday : mkrealdate($day,$md,$year);
$next_birthday_greeting = (date('md')<$md.$day) ? date('Y'):date('Y')+1 ;
}
}
} else $birthday = ($error) ? '' : 999999;

I already know how to do the html. It should look something like this. It would then go into the profile_add_body.tpl file located in the templates folder or else your theme's forum folder. I'm halfway there I just need to know the php. Its already written on this site I'm sure it would be an easy copy and paste to go into the includes/usercp_registration.php file.

I know you're really needing this information, but please try to be patient. The code you're looking for can only come from Telli and he is a very busy guy. I'm sure he will post the info you need as soon as he can get to it.

I wasn't trying to be impatient at all. I was just trying to help out by posting the html. If telli does pass me the code I'm positive I can send him a small donation for helping me out. He bailed me out before in the user info block before also. I have faith in him. ;-) I just searched all over yahoo and everywhere then I saw telli had already done this for his site and thought it might be a great addition to the birthday hack.

I know. I just wanted to let you know your posts weren't being ignored.

If he does this I will modify it in the birthday mod and maybe we can distribute it as an update.

did you try and install the Birthday hack from PortedMods. It's the exact same thing that is here on this site.

No its not exactly the same....

<tr>
<td class="row1"><span class="gen">{L_BIRTHDAY}:</span><br /><span class="gensmall">{L_BIRTHDAY_EXPLAIN}<br /></span></td>
<td class="row2"><input type="text" class="post"style="width: 80px" name="birthday" size="10" maxlength="10" value="{BIRTHDAY}" /></td>
</tr>

is what they have for the profile_add_body.tpl from the ported mods birthday hack....

Telli has something very similar to what I posted earlier.

I found this mod it was at phpbbhacks.com under birthday in the download section. The file was 185.zip. It was a basic install. You'll either have to figure out the database update or else just use the ported version of the sql from portedmods.com

Just thought I'd let some people know.

I'm getting a problem with this new mod. It seems to only register people's birthdays at 1970.
I am using phpnuke 7.0 and the birthday hack from phpbbhack

attached is the mod and my usercp_register.php any help would be greatufully appreciated. Because I can't figure this out at all..
