Birthdays...
Hello! Today is my birthday, and I came by and saw that it didn't list it, even though I have my birth date completed in my profile, year and all. Did I do something wrong, not do something else, or is this a glitch? Just curious, and thank you!

First of all, happy birthday.
Second, I'll let Ron-of-the-Mighty-Secrets answer.

Re: Birthdays...
Ron-of-the-Mighty-Secrets isn't here. Ron-of-the-Poke-and-Prod-until-it-seems-to-work, however, has solved the case.
The Birthday field input in the UCP is in Day-Month-Year format, not Month-Day-Year. You had your birthday set to July 1st instead of January 7th. Fixed it for you.
Of course, I only noticed this after trying out your birthday for myself, seeing it didn't work (because I did the same thing), then trying to set my own birthday and finding that July had only 12 days.
You're lucky I was born on the 22nd.
Oh, and Happy Birthday!

Re: Birthdays...
Oh!! Sorry about that, everyone! And I'm also really sorry I missed seeing my birthday here on the boards. I looked forward to that a lot, actually...
At least today's Elvis' birthday, so I'm in good company.
Again, thank you for fixing it for me, and taking time out to wish me a happy birthday.
