| Description | Extend the birthday system so it can invite people to create eGifts, or start a private topic.
Document how people can edit the CNS_BIRTHDAYS template to customise the default action, and the BIRTHDAY_NOTIFICATION_MAIL language string. Probably allow the birthday system to be disabled entirely if people want that. |
| Steps to reproduce | |
| Funded? | No |

"Regarding the notification, fortunately we did have the foresight to make this configurable. In the cns language file, change the BIRTHDAY_NOTIFICATION_MAIL language string. Change {4} to {3} as follows:
Code
It's {{{2}}}'s birthday. Come congratulate them on {1}:\n{3}
(3 is passed in as the member profile URL but not used by default; 4 is the birthday topic creation URL)"
In the birthday notifications I got today which shows the new directing to e-gift, the linked part of the URL extends only to their first name and doesn't include the last name. Appears the code doesn't like seeing a space there between first and last name :)
