BuddyPress Birthday Widget
Members share milestones outside your platform and your community misses the chance to celebrate together. BuddyPress Birthday Widget reads member birthdate profile fields and shows upcoming birthdays in a sidebar widget, so your community can acknowledge members on their special day. Admins can choose whether to display member ages alongside birthdate information.
