Valter i just installed it and now i have a error msg and the VSA-Chatbox is all messed up.

Warning: mktime() expects parameter 1 to be long, string given in [path]/includes/class_bootstrap.php(399) : eval()'d code on line 23

After i disabled the Auto Birthday Greeter the chatbox was normal again.

I also noticed after the upgrade that it instantly created a new thread for somebody that had his birthday on 01-01 but it created a thread today.

I can not upgrade the PHP because the host needs to do that.
I checked the member settings and de birthday was set correct.

Is it possible to upload the previous version because that one worked perfect.

I had 6 threads created on my forum between 11 and 1125pm LAST NIGHT.

3 threads for each day. There is totally something wrong with this update. My server time is completely different than the time I use on my forum. I use MST for my forum but my server is hosted in California.

See screen shot.
This was working PERFECTLY before I upgraded.

[edit] It actually created 7 threads --- I am deleting all but the one people are replying to. The one I didn't notice actually did go at Midnight. [/edit]

Mine is doing it at 11pm the day before the birth date. Can this be fixed for the actual date?
