        Hi,
is it with 2.32.0 like with your previous messages, please? I suppose
yes (also based on the ~/.cache path) so, then
Edit->Preferences->Calendar and Tasks->General->Alerts
[x] Show a reminder [ xxx ]  [ minutes | v ] before every
anniversary/birthday
may do what you want.

With respect of publishing
Edit->Preferences->Calendar and Tasks->Calendar Publishing and add there
a publishing option based on your needs. Just note you shouldn't modify
any internal evolution files there, thus rather publish to a new file
and create a new local calendar pointing to that file, with Read only
access to it.

Definitely yes, if any of those above doesn't work for you.
        Hope that helps,
