Command \evcdateofbirth is for the Date of Birth.
Is there any option for Place Of Birth? Command \ecvplaceofbirth does not work.

I have just released an updated version of europecv that implements the graphical theme released in July 2013.
You can see a sample CV here and its source here.
The class and all related files are hosted on github: https://github.com/leinardi/europecv2013
Normally I do not work with LaTeX (but I like to use it when I get the chance), which is why the class code may not be very clean. If anyone has suggestions on how to improve the code I would be happy to hear them.
Hard way ahead. Put this in your preamble

If you want to modify the .cls file which is not a good idea as your modifications will be overwritten with an update, here is how to jump in to the sea. First save a copy of europecv2013.cls and name it myeuropecv2013.cls
After line 355, say add these
\newcommand*{\ecvlinkedin}[1]{\def\ecv@linkedin{#1}} %% this line is reference
\newcommand*{\ecvskype}[1]{\def\ecv@skype{#1}} %% <---add
and then add \ecvlinkedin{} after line 393. Then in command
\providecommand{\ecvpersonalinfo}[1][20pt]{%
on line 390, below
\ifx\@empty\ecv@linkedin\else
$\begin{array}{@{}l}\includegraphics[width=\ecv@iconwidth]{ic_linkedin}\end{array}$\ecv@linkedin\par\vspace{10pt}
\fi
(lines 416-418), add these
\ifx\@empty\ecv@skype\else
$\begin{array}{@{}l}\includegraphics[width=\ecv@iconwidth]{skype}\end{array}$%
\ecv@skype\par\vspace{10pt}
\fi
BTW change \ecv@linkedin\par\vspace{10pt} to \ecv@linkedin\par\vspace{5pt}
Then save myeuropecv2013.cls and use\documentclass{myeuropecv2013}
Best Answer
The given class
europecv2013follows the official europass cv document not knowing a place of birth. As I commented I think it is not a very good idea to change that, but well ...First you need to add the following two lines to your code:
That defines a variable
\ecvplaceofbirthyou can use in your cv ...Now the problem is to integrate this new information into the current cv. Therefore we have to change several lines in the original code to be able to build the needed line depended of the given datas:
The relevant part of code are the following lines where I added the place of birth, which results in several
\ifx\@empty\ecv@placebirth:So with the following complete MWE (I added the new code to the cv
.texfile to avoid to change the original fileeuropecv2013.cls):and the resulting pdf:
