    Hi Author,

    First of all thank you for this great plugin!

    I have a question. I want to create a database with a lot of people and their birthdays. I want to show them on my website by the current date. Is this possible?

    So I need to create multiple lists. I hope you can help.

    Kind regards,

    Pretty sure you would use the pdb_list filter

    Put this on the page where you want it displayed,

    [pdb_list fields=”last_name,first_name,birthday”]

    You will have to create a field with the name birthday in order for it to display. That will only show fist name, last name, and the birthday that was entered for that person.

    Here’s a link to the plugin, https://xnau.com/work/wordpress-plugins/participants-database/using-the-participants-database-plugin/#filtering

    Hi Matt,

    Thank you for your reply. Is it also possible to only show birthdays of for example: March 4?

    The only way to do this is to have a birthday field that is a plain text field that would have the person’s birthday. It can’t be a date field because there is no easy way to get a search such as “show all people with a birthday of March 4″ If you do it as a text field, you can use a list shortcode filter (as suggested) like this:

    [pdb_list filter=”birthday~march 4”]
