Hi,<br><br>Suppose we have a content type describing students; I've used the 'Title' field as the student's name, and added (amongst other fields) a CCK date field with the students date of birth.<br><br>Now I wanted to do something simple (or so I thought): show the birthdays using the calendar module. However, there is an obvious problem: the date of birth, say, 5-6-1978, should be shown on 5-6-2009 (and again on 5-6-2010, ..); that is, the year component of the date should be ignored. I tried:<br>
<br>- A CCK computed field "next birthday"; might be workable, but to be usable in the calendar view it must be stored in the database, which means it's not actually computed on the fly (all 'student' nodes must be edited and saved again next year). Not great.<br>
<br>- A Views 'custom field' allows to do on-the-fly computations for Views fields, which seems perfect; but unfortunately these cannot be used as the Argument to the view.<br><br>Now I could of course write a custom module, but I was really hoping to avoid that. Any suggestions?<br>
<br>Thanks,<br><br>Edsko<br>
