    Hello Sir,

    I want my users to be sent an Email on their Birthdays.

    Admin should receive Birthday notification a day before the Birthday.

    How can I achieve something like this with UsersWP ?

    2.) Users will fill their Birthdays– which will be Date, Month and Year.

    On the frontend, I will need only Day and Month to appear.

    How can I achieve something like that with UsersWP ?

    Needing to hear from you soon.

    Regards.

    Hi,

    UsersWP will store the birthday as a user custom field, but it doesn’t include any of the features described.

    You need a custom plugin to do all that, if you want we xan provide a quote for its development.

    Let us know if you want us to work on it.

    Best

    Thank You for your reply.

    Unfortunately, I wasn’t looking at spending money on this.

    I was thinking that it’s something I will get some PHP Code Snippets somewhere to solve.

    Using Ultimate Member plugin, they have such Code Snippets as you can see here— https://docs.ultimatemember.com/article/1765-send-birthday-greetings-to-accounts-with-today-s-birthdays

    So I was thinking that UsersWP could have such Code Snippets as well, if I use UsersWP for my intended purpose.

    IN PASSING
    The website is intended as just a Storage Unit.

    I want to use it to store information of the Men in my Church— because I manage Data of the Men’s Group.

    The Men need to feel loved and cared about. We want to wish each person ” Happy Birthday ” on their Birthdays.

    So I want to make a website that allows them to Sign up and fill in their information.

    After Signing up, they don’t engage with the website again, unless they want to change and update their information.

    Or, except they just want to view information of other Members.

    THE USE CASE
    We could give each Member a small form to fill.

    Then extract the information and place them on an Excel Sheet.

    Each Day, I could check the Excel Sheet to know who has Birthday, then I can send an Email and a WhatsApp Message to that Member, wishing them ” Happy Birthday“.

    THE CHALLENGE
    It’s too much work going through the Excel Sheet everyday.

    THE SOLUTION
    Because it’s too much work going through the Excel Sheet everyday, I wanted to Automate the process– by creating a website that allows the Members of the Men’s Group of my Church to come online and fill their Information through UsersWP Sign Up Form.

    Then, they will receive a Birthday notification from our website by 1am on their Birthday.

    This Data will be pulled from the Birthdate that they filled, when they Signed up.

    MY EXPECTATIONS
    I was expecting that this is something that Code Snippets will achieve, as is possible with Ultimate Member plugin seen here— https://docs.ultimatemember.com/article/1765-send-birthday-greetings-to-accounts-with-today-s-birthdays

    OF NOTE
    The website will not be making any money.

    SEO and other useful things will not be done on it.

    It’s just to serve as a Storage Unit that only tracks Birthdays, and sends Birthday Emails to Members from their Birthday information filled at Sign up.

    I hope you understand my Use Case now?

    And probably can support me with the relevant Code Snippet?

    Regards.
