Hi Jon,

I know how much you like the Today's Birthdays module, so I put it back. But I can't have it on every page. As I mentioned in email, it's a resource hog - it queries the database a lot to come up with a list and most of the time, the list doesn't have anyone on it.

So, what I did was to put it in the left side bar, but not on every page. You mentioned that you like to look at it when or right after you check for New posts. Well, on the New Posts page, there it is. It's also in the side bar of your User CP, everyone's profile pages and on the Search pages. I was even able to find a way to make the list of birthdays (right now it only says "None") restrain itself to the confines of the inside of the side panel tiles.

I hope that will suffice. Is there some other page you would like to see it on that isn't one of the main pages (website home, forum home, thread pages, posts pages or article pages)? I'll try to accomodate you.

Jim
