Hi there! Within this forum we have ability to manage date\_of\_birth. But in this view `app/assets/javascripts/discourse/templates/preferences.hbs` we don’t have this ability. ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/5/d/5d88b4a515b9b2258e40b07d735fa95250473423.png) Could you explain how to add date\_of\_birth? (like in this forum) ---
