Birthday Reminder

by rrao

Scans your Address Book for birthdays and creates appointment reminders.

With a single-click, you can scans your Address Books and display your contact birthday information. You can review and create multiple reminders for each birthday. Multiple reminders help users schedule plans in advance of a birthday.

Reminders can be:

  1. "On-the-day-of" the birthday
  2. "1,2...7" days before the birthday
  3. "1,2...4" weeks before the birthday

This updated version of the Birthday Reminder Zimlet includes the following changes:

  • Scan entire Address Book and add multiple yearly-recurring appointments.
  • Allow users to automatically create Birthday Reminders when saving individual contacts by adding "Save & Add Birthday" button, which allows users to easily create Birthday Reminders.
  • Allow scanning of entire Address Book multiple times without duplicating already-created-reminders.
  • Ability to "Reset Birthday Reminders" Calendar.
  • Added support to quickly select and unselect all Reminders to add.

Works well, but the date is interpreted incorrectly.

I installed this zimlet, and it seems to work well. All the birthdays are gathered and entered into a calendar.

The only problem is that it interprets UK dates in the US format. This means that dd/mm/yyyy is interpreted as mm/dd/yyyy. A birthday that occurs on 12th April therefore occurs on 4th December etc.

Also, is it possible to collect birthdays from shared calendars? I couldn't see how to make that happen.

Update for ZCS/ZD 7.x ?

Seems as if this nice zimlet isn't working anymore in the 7.x series. Will there be an update?
