On my Coming Events the block specific settings are not saved. When I clicked on saved it doesn't give me any error or warnings, but the settings do not update.

Any help available for this, or is it a known bug?

elmuerte may give a better answer, but I know that the vbcore and its blocks many times caches settings for a set period. You would need to empty the site cache (Truncate the drupal_cache table) to see the effects of the update.

After a time, the changes will be reflected. I noticed similar behaviour in the vbforums module not updating the threads when I added forums.

I truncated the drupal_cache table as suggested, but the problem still persists. I noticed that in the drupal_variable table there wasn't any entry related to vbBirthdays at all, could this be related or does the block not store its settings in the variable table?

oops... forgot to implement the saving of the "Coming Events" settings.

download the fixed module here (http://vbdrupal.cvs.sourceforge.net/*checkout*/vbdrupal/vbdrupal-ng/forum/drupal/modules/vbBirthdays.module?revision=1.3)
simply download and override the file

Thank you for the prompt response!

P.S. No offence, but I chuckled a little bit at that. :p
