    Is there a way to ONLY show to the Public the birth YEAR (not day or month) anywhere on the site?

    I forgot to say this should only be for  Living people.

    No, there isn't. The only way I can think of would require you to change your language settings to display only the YEAR in all dates. I also recall someone else asking a similar question here not long ago. You might have a look and see what the answer was there.

    Most people don't show ANY facts about living people, as that is required by privacy laws in most countries.

    I think this might be it - and it looks like I'm wrong, there is a way, although I've never tried it.

    I just tried it myself. A couple of things I noted:

    1 -  the correct entry in your config.php file is:

        $PUBLIC_DATE_FORMAT ='Y';

    (this forum messed up the original)

    2 -  It applies to all individuals visible to Public, so not just Living, which I think makes sense.
