If i remember it right, you can also call the module directly in the url of your browser, and will show a message.

I have a problem with birthday present module:
the vouchers are generated ok, but when the customer enters voucher code the message "voucher expired" appears, although the voucher shows validity of 12 months.

Could this be related to some warnings I get after cronjob:
"PHP Notice: Undefined index: HTTP_HOST in /var/www/vhosts/../classes/Cookie.php on line 67
PHP Notice: Undefined offset: 4 in /var/www/vhosts/../classes/Cookie.php on line 70
PHP Notice: Undefined index: HTTP_HOST in /var/www/vhosts/../classes/Cookie.php on line 72
PHP Notice: Undefined index: HTTP_HOST in /var/www/vhosts/../init.php on line 99
PHP Notice: Undefined index: HTTP_HOST in /var/www/vhosts/../init.php on line 118
PHP Notice: Undefined index: HTTP_HOST in /var/www/vhosts/../classes/Mail.php on line 96
PHP Notice: Undefined index: HTTP_HOST in /var/www/vhosts/../classes/Mail.php on line 96
PHP Notice: Undefined index: HTTP_HOST in /var/www/vhosts/../classes/Mail.php on line 96
OK"

This error is really annoying since I have to include the voucher for the customer's order manualy through database... and it realy spoils the present for the customer

Maybe you have encountered the same problem and found a solution????

The solution is quite simple, however I searched for it for 1.5 years now... and I found it! The problem is that in birthdaypresent.php voucher name is always 'birthday' so prestashop creates the same voucher name for different customers, that is why the system thinks that the voucher is expired. Just change the line (somewhere around line 109) in birthdaypresent.php so it creates a unique voucher name every time, for example:

$voucher->name = date('Y').'BP'.$user['id_customer'];

That's it! Enjoy and have a lot of happy customers

That's great you figured it out. It's a shame that it took so long to find it. What version of PrestaShop are you using? I was going to report this to the bug tracker, but when I checked the code in PrestaShop v1.3.1, it seems to be already fixed:

$voucher->name = 'BIRTHDAY-'.intval($voucher->id_customer).'-'.date('Y');

I'm using Prestashop version 1.2.5.0 and yes it seems that version 1.3 has already fixed a bug.
