Birth Date
Hi Holly,
That makes sense, and it is always good to be straight forward with formatting options for users to reduce any confusion. I've added this to our notes for review!
Thanks again for your input,

Hi Holly,
I wanted to let you know that we have updated the "Birthday" help text field to be more clarifying for site users:
We've updated it to be more consistent with other help text fields and allow for users to know they can enter a date in the MM/DD/YYYY format.
Thank you for your constant dedication to improving our software!
Best,

Super cool! Thank you for implementing my idea!
Hi all-
It looks like in more recent updates, the label "Birthday" was removed. We've had several volunteers enter today's date rather than their date of birth, because this field is not labeled.
Hi Christopher,
I am looking into this on my end -- thanks for the head's up! I will let you know when this has been resolved.

Hi everyone,
This has been resolved. Due to recent updates to this field the help text was unknowingly reverted. It now looks like this:
"(Required)" only appearing if that field is set to be required.
Thanks again, have a great weekend.

Thank you, Shonie!

Hello,
We ask users for their Birth Date when they create an account. I request that the field say instead "Birth Date MM/DD/YYYY" so the users know they can just type their birthday in that format instead of using the calendar tool, which is a neat feature but a bit clunky.
Thanks!
