Community Directory: Birthday Reminder
Hey everyone!
I’m happy to share that Birthday Reminder (previous post)is now officially available in the Obsidian Community Plugin Store! 
If you’ve ever wanted to keep track of birthdays for friends, family, or clients right inside your Obsidian vault — this plugin does exactly that. It scans your notes for birthday dates, shows you who’s coming up, and even handles lunar calendar, zodiac signs, and a calendar view.
What’s New from v1.1.0 to v1.5.2
1. 
UI/UX Improvements

Cleaner, smoother interface that adapts to both Obsidian dark and light themes -
Calendar and statistics cards automatically adjust when you drag the panel to the sidebar (compact mode) or main window (full mode)
-
Slider shows real-time values when adjusting the number of months to display (e.g., “3 months”)
-
Color scheme preview updates instantly — what you see is what you get
2. 
Performance & Experience
-
Fixed memory usage issues — the plugin runs smoothly in the background without slowing down Obsidian

Full popout window support — pop the panel out into its own window and everything works seamlessly
-

3. 
Full Localization

-
Language switching takes effect immediately — no restart required
