birthdaylist

sdetweil

is a blank needed before “Suzie”?

no, I trim off blanks… allow for sloppy editing/pasting

all entries have to have the same date format

sdetweil

@MyMirror the csv file format is

the header row,

birth  ,  name

and then
rows for each person

birthday , name

the birthday format can be in whatever format you like
MM/DD/YYYY
DD/MM/YYYY
YYYY/DD/MM
YYYY/MM/DD

using whatever separator you choose

the layout and separator have to be the same for all birthday rows

@sdetweil
OK, my mistake :worried_face:
I misinterpreted currentMonthOnly: and assumed that all maxEntries would then be displayed (for more than 2 month).
But with “false”, the current and the following month are displayed.
Sorry for the trouble :flushed_face:
(There was no entrie for January in my data file)

sdetweil

@MyMirror yes, I already had support for next month dec=>jan
just sort was broken.

@MyMirror I just pushed a change to display a message
when no birthdays are found to display given the current settings

I also added support to translate that message into the language set in the MM config…

I provided files for english, french, german, italian and spanish

@sdetweil

One more request/question:
Could you add the month as a picture?
If you set this option “currentMonthOnly: false” (which I find very good), then a month without an entry can lead to misunderstandings.

Example:
We have January and no entry for January in the bdl.csv.
But on February 10.
This would look like the next birthday is now on January 10, right?
In this respect, is it possible to display the month as well?

@MyMirror currently the module is designed only to display the day. IN THE CURENT MONTH.
let me think about this

sdetweil

@MyMirror ok, git pull again

add
withMonth: true,

to the config parms…

note that the image is 27px square, so the space for text is small…
to fit, I made new css classes with a smaller font size when showing month

@sdetweil

Excellent - 5 stars for you!

@sdetweil

thanks for this module, first of all.

upcoming months are sorted correctly, but current month is on the bottom. how can we get current month on top?
