Hey, I was just wondering is there any way to display your age, but not your date of birth? I've hunted around in the Account Settings, but I still haven't found out how to do it.

As far as I know, it's not possible.

If you'd like to display your age, but avoiding giving your DOB, you could use any random date on the given year of your birth. Would that do it?

I thought my DOB would show up next to my avatar. It's still on my profile, but I'm okay with that.

Also, to the WP community in general: thanks for answering these questions. This site can be a little difficult to figure out sometimes. :P

As far as I know, you can display the date without the year, but that's it. So, you could either do that, or what Moog suggested - I'd suggest setting your DOB to January 1st, as that would be the logical default should the feature you're looking for existed.

Thanks, good suggestion. I'm gonna do that.
