As a Goodreads Author, how do I hide my birthday?
If you have a Goodreads Author profile, you have to set your birthday to blank on both your author profile settings and your member Account Settings.
You can edit your author profile information by clicking on "edit data" underneath the bio on your author page. Clear your birthday and click on “save” at the bottom of the page.
To edit your user settings on the desktop site, click on your profile picture and select Account Settings. Navigate to your Profile tab and set your birthdate to blank, then click on “Save profile settings” at the bottom of the page. On mobile, navigate to your Settings from the hamburger menu and select “Profile.” Scroll down to “Birthday” to clear your dates, then tap “Save” to update your changes.
