      thank you very much for your great birthday overview.
      Unfortunately, as you wrote here ( https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/18107/mmm-birthdays/11 ), the list is limited to the end of the month or year.
      Is it possible to add 2 more options to extend the display beyond the end of the month or year? Because this way I can only see at the beginning of the month/year if someone has a birthday on 01.01., for example.
      And … could the list also have an underlined heading “Birthdays”?

      I wish you all a happy new year. Stay healthy.

      Jens

        @MyMirror go to the module folder and do

        git pull

        to get underlined header just add the header to the config

        {
                module: "birthdaylist",
                position:'top_left',
                header:"birthday list header",
                config: {
        					language: "en",
        					dimmEntries:true,  // true: dims entries and the associated
        							     //       symbol when the date has expired.
        						             // false: dont display entries and the associated
        							     //        symbol when the date has expired.
        					initialLoadDelay: 0, // How many seconds to wait on a fresh start up.
        							     // This is to prevent collision with all other modules also
        							     // loading all at the same time. This only happens once,
        							     // when the mirror first starts up.
        					updateDelay: 5,      // How many seconds after midnight before a refresh
        							     // This is to prevent collision with other
        							     // modules refreshing at the same time.
        					currentMonthOnly: false,  // will show birthdays for the current month only if true
        					maxEntries: 0,	     // maximum entries to show, default is all
        					dateFormat: '',	     // date format for birthday (default is none), could be 'Do' for 'Sep 12th'
        					ageFormat:'',	     // some format string for the persons age, '[ n ]'  n will be replace by age value
        					debug:false
                        }
        }

          @MyMirror what if you change
          currentMothOnly: to false from true?

          underline, use custom.css to add the underline

                                      currentMonthOnly: false,        // will show birthdays for the current month only if true
                                      maxEntries: 10,                 // maximum entries to show, default is all

                              },
                      
                      10 maxEntries just for the test, if this works, i would go to 4.
                      On my screen I get this:
                      ![screenshot](https://my.hidrive.com/lnk/CBHojVsL)
                      So ... only 3 entries and i took your example
