\n– Players register their own birthday with `\/birthday add
\n– Birthdays are locked after being set – only admins can make changes
\n– `\/birthday` on its own shows a player their registered birthday and lets them claim their reward during their birthday month<\/p>\n
\n– Admins set the birthday reward by holding a filled shulker box and running `\/birthday setreward`
\n– The shulker (including all its contents) is serialised and saved – exactly what you put in is what players receive
\n– Optional extra reward commands (e.g. giving in-game currency) can be configured alongside the shulker
\n– Rewards are claimable any time during the player’s birthday **month**, not just on the day itself
\n– Claim tracking is per-year, so players get their reward fresh each year<\/p>\n
\n– A configurable daily task fires at a set time (default `08:30`, 24-hour format) and announces all birthdays for that day
\n– Broadcasts both in-game (server-wide message) and to a Discord webhook channel
\n– Fires only once per day – safe against server restarts and lag<\/p>\n
\n– Players who haven’t set their birthday yet get a friendly reminder on join
\n– On join, players are notified of any birthdays happening today
\n– If it’s the joining player’s own birthday, they receive a personalised welcome message
\n– Players in their birthday month (but not yet claimed) are reminded to collect their present
\n– All join messages use configurable delays so they don’t collide with other plugins’ join messages<\/p>\n
\n– **Announcement webhook** – fires the daily birthday announcement to a public channel
\n– **Log webhook** – records admin actions (birthday set, cleared, updated) and player birthday registrations with colour-coded embeds
\n– Both webhooks are independent and optional – leave either blank to disable<\/p>\n
\n– `\/birthday set
\n– `\/birthday clear
\n– `\/birthday clearclaim
\n– `\/birthday upcoming` – view all birthdays occurring in the next 30 days, sorted by soonest, with “TODAY” highlighted
\n– `\/birthday reload` – reload config and data without restarting<\/p>\n
\n– All messages customisable via `config.yml` with colour code support
\n– Announcement time configurable in 24-hour HH:MM format
\n– Join message delays configurable (in seconds) to fit your server’s join flow
\n– Reward commands list supports any console command with `%player%` placeholder<\/p>\n
