Post subject : Birthdays & Visits

Having spent ALL day doing this I am at my wits end so I hope you can help. Firstly....please treat me like an idiot because I must be as I just cant get this to work.
Okay....
All I want to do is to put the following on my site:
Birthdays
Recently online (which I think is VISITS)???
I have been to the HOW TO but every piece of advice seems to stop just where I need it to carry on and take me to the end of the process.
I have pasted the code from HOW TO in my header and footer....but this is not where I want it to be. All I get are the portals at the top of my page which pushes the board down to far.
I would like the Birthdays & Visits in the Who is online section.
I have the code etc....I just dont know where to put it so it shows up in these areas.
I am just using subSilver style at the moment.
I hope you can help.....
Thanks....

well it looks like visits is setup right.
The birthday needs to be setup before the table can go in:
the mod:
http://howtodoit.myfreeforum.org/about610.html&highlight=birthday
the table mod:
http://howtodoit.myfreeforum.org/about642.html&highlight=birthday
let me know which bit of the guide is confusing?

I have followed your guide to the letter but where exactly do I put the bit in the index section.
You mention after "Logged In" but exactly where please....excuse my ignorance.

Guide updated to show how it should look placed where described.
The in index_body.tpl I added :
Code:
<br />{MYFF.VISITS}
This was added after the {LOGGED_IN_USER_LIST} macro, to give something that looks similar to this:
Code: <td class="tabletop" align="left"><span class="gensmall">{TOTAL_USERS_ONLINE} [ {L_WHOSONLINE_ADMIN} ] [ {L_WHOSONLINE_MOD} ]<br />{RECORD_USERS}<br />{LOGGED_IN_USER_LIST}</span><br />
{MYFF.VISITS}</td>
</tr>

Turns out visits is already installed on the myfreeforum_portal template, so you only have to do the birthday mods.

BIRTHDAYS!!!!
You are an absolute star....I followed your links (which I honestly couldnt find earlier!!)...and I now have a Cake!!!!!!
Thank you so so much. In a few minutes you have helped out brilliantly. Thank you for your patience.
VISITS
Wondering if I have VISITS confused with "Recently Online?"
I shall search your forum as I am positive I'll find the answer...
