Automated Birthday Notification on User’s Birthday

Your plugin ( https://github.com/MissVeronica/um-happy-birthday ) crashed my website.

I had to go through Control Panel to remove it, before my website came back to life.

Now, I have followed you, MissVeronica (@missveronicatv) for quite sometime in the forum, and I see that you do provide some good solution to Ultimate Member problems.

It’s however annoying and frustrating to me, that there have been hundred and hundreds of requests for this Birthday feature– both from me and other users of Ultimate Member plugin.

But for some insane and silly reason that I can’t understand, Ultimate Member has stubbornly remained adamant in solving this problem once and for all.

1.) Why is that?

Why has the Ultimate Member team stubbornly remained adamant in solving this problem once and for all?

2.) Ultimate Member created this Birthday Code Example— https://docs.ultimatemember.com/article/1765-send-birthday-greetings-to-accounts-with-today-s-birthdays

This means that it has come to the notice of Ultimate Member that there’s need for Birthday Feature and Birthday Email Template.

Unfortunately, this code does not function properly. It is still full of bugs.

2.) Why is it a big deal for Ultimate Member, or for you, MissVeronica (@missveronicatv) to perfect this Code, and make it usable– so that it can solve our need for Birthday Notification Emails once and for all?

2b.) Why do you guys have a solution so close to hand, but refuse to perfect it, and prefer to just make us suffer endlessly?

Waiting soon to hear from you.

Regards.

You seem to me like a super programmer who understands the intricacies of Ultimate Member.

So there’s every possibility that you could have run some additional codes which could have made the Happy Birthday plugin work for you.

Unfortunately on my end, it is crashing my website.

MOVING FORWARD
Since you understand Ultimate Member plugin in a very intricate and nitty-gritty way, why not help us perfect the Happy Birthday code here– https://docs.ultimatemember.com/article/1765-send-birthday-greetings-to-accounts-with-today-s-birthdays

The code of course creates the Email Template for Birthdays, as you can see here– https://prnt.sc/qmABN23GgERB

The problem is that there’s still a bug in it– where, if you enter contents in the Email content and save, all the contents disappears.

Why not just try to fix the problem in that code, and our problem will be forever solved? — rather than trying to create another Birthday plugin that is crashing our website?

Waiting to hear from you soon.

Regards.

This your last reply confused me. So I will dissect it piece by piece for clarity:

Can you copy the error message and show me for fixing any bugs.

First of all, there is no error message. The code here ( https://docs.ultimatemember.com/article/1765-send-birthday-greetings-to-accounts-with-today-s-birthdays ) — creates the Email Template as seen here– https://prnt.sc/qmABN23GgERB

The problem is that there’s still a bug in it– where, if you enter contents in the Email content and save, all the contents disappears.

Now, I hope you know that I am referring to this code here (https://docs.ultimatemember.com/article/1765-send-birthday-greetings-to-accounts-with-today-s-birthdays )

And not referring to your Happy Birthday plugin here ( https://github.com/MissVeronica/um-happy-birthday ) ?

I have fixed the errors in the code example in the UM documentation for the “Happy Birthday” plugin.

The plugin will now save the email template after editing and there is a setting of the hour when the emails will be sent.

Are you referring to this code here (https://docs.ultimatemember.com/article/1765-send-birthday-greetings-to-accounts-with-today-s-birthdays )

Or, referring to your Happy Birthday plugin here ( https://github.com/MissVeronica/um-happy-birthday ) ?

Which one exactly did you fix?

2b.) and there is a setting of the hour when the emails will be sent.
