The profile won't keep my changes when I try to set my birthday. Is anyone else having this issue?

OK. Been trying to track this down for awhile. Quick question. Are you not setting a year?

I am setting month, day and year. It still says that birthday is not set. This is after the confirmation page.

Hahahahahahahaha! Now, this is funny. I have been able to set a birthday. The only date I've found that the system will recognize for me is Dec 31, 2003. If I try to change it to anything else, it goes back to saying that my birthday is not provided. Ok. I'll be less than one year old. Talk about a literate pre-toddler. I'll accept that. Waaaaa Waaaaa!! Rofl!

So, apparently the deal was that you couldn't set a birthday before 1970. It's now fixed, and in the same breath made the year optional, since this was also asked for. If your year is set, as it is for just about everyone now, your age will show up on the Happy Birthday page.

Everything is fixed now. Yea!! I had to give my bottle back now that I'm actually the age I'm supposed to be.

Kwork,

I'm so glad you brought this topic up and that the problem has been solved. I tried to set my birthdate numerous times and kept getting the birthday is not provided message when I read my profile. I tried sending private messages to the administrator and got no answer and no help. I guess all it took was bringing it up in a public forum to make them work on a solution. Glad you did it.

No actually, we knew that there was a problem but never tracked it down since it only happened for some users and couldn't find the connection before.
