Thanks, that did the trick. I can now see BBDB anniversaries in my agenda. Christopher Culver

Weird. In the BBDB 3 version that I have from ELPA [1], I do have a file `bbdb-autoloads.el', but no `bbdb-loaddefs.el'... Best regards, Seb [1] ~/.emacs.d/elpa/bbdb-20130728.2143 -- Sebastien Vauban

Here is the instructions from the README file: 4) Activate BBDB: i) If the BBDB lisp files are in a directory "/path/to/bbdb/lisp" you can use in your emacs init file (require 'bbdb-loaddefs "/path/to/bbdb/lisp/bbdb-loaddefs.el") This adds "/path/to/bbdb/lisp" to the load-path; so it is all you need to make BBDB known to your Emacs. ii) The user variable bbdb-print-tex-path should point to the directory where the BBDB TeX files reside (default /usr/local/share/bbdb).

My anniversary field in ~/.bbdb is called "anniversary". Setting this option has no effect for me: I still do not see bbdb anniversaries in the org-mode agenda. Christopher Culver

Works fine here (I am using the git version of both). How are you loading bbdb?

I think you might need: (setq org-bbdb-anniversary-field 'birthday) or (setq org-bbdb-anniversary-field 'anniversary) depending on what you called the anniversary field. If you work out how to display birthdays and anniversaries in the same agenda please share. Myles
[O] Org-mode and continuing BBDB compatibility
I am using org-mode version 20131021 and the latest checkout of the bbdb3 git repository. Although I have the following lines in my main .org file: * Anniversaries :PROPERTIES: :CATEGORY: Anniv :END: %%(org-bbdb-anniversaries) I do not see anniversaries from my .bbdb file in the agenda. I know that some work was done in the past with making org-mode compatible with bbdb3, but are the two projects no longer compatible, or do I probably have some other problem on my end?
