What happened?

EDIT
Just tested https://github.com/pnp/sp-dev-fx-webparts/tree/main/samples/react-birthdays and that one is working!
The issue is about https://github.com/pnp/sp-dev-fx-webparts/tree/main/samples/react-modern-birthdays

Upcoming birthdays are not showed, while they should be.
No errors during building, deploying and in browser.
I'm a bit clueless what's going wrong.
I also tested to rename the SP list, such the list cannot be found. Than I got the error that the list cannot be found in the browser.
So the list is found.
Birthday date filled in: 2/13/2000 (date of today = 2/12/2025)
Upcoming days is set to 30 days.

Testpage with React-modern-birthdays-part included:

Testpage without React-modern-birthdays-part:

Steps to reproduce

1. Clone repository
2. Build, add & deploy react-birthdays.sppkg
3. Approve API access
   
4. Create Sharepoint List in root
   
5. Create index on Birthday column
   
   
6. Fill SharePoint List
7. Hoping for successful result, however, no Upcoming Birthdays:
   

Expected behavior

That there are upcoming birthdays ;-)

Hello @Cowman666 ,

Try to refresh your cache (local storage) as this web part is using it to display birthdays.
Otherwise, of you wait for cache expiration (5 minutes) it should be fine as well 😊

Hi,

Unfortunately it doesn't work after a couple of days waiting time. Also tried to refresh and clear cache, still no upcoming birthdays, while https://github.com/pnp/sp-dev-fx-webparts/tree/main/samples/react-birthdays is working, with the same setup.
Therefore, I assume it is a bug.
