I created new tables in my jamroom database. How do I have the ranking system pull data from the new tables I created?

Thanks

You will need to create a new ranking system plugin - make sure to check out the module developer documentation:

I am so confused. I tried to follow the instructions for setting up a new ranking plugin system and I am getting a blank page when I process the reaquest for information on the database.

I created a page called artistclipboard.php by copying the file created for the youtube videos. I changed all of the information that pertains to my database and used the following to call the information nedded.

<form method="post" action="{$JAMROOM_URL}/ranking.php?mode=search">
<input type="hidden" name="header_template" value="search_header.tpl">
<input type="hidden" name="row_template" value="jr_ranking_row.tpl">
<input type="hidden" name="footer_template" value="search_footer.tpl">
<input type="hidden" name="pagebreak" value="{$smarty.config.pagebreak}">
<input type="hidden" name="highlight" value="{$smarty.config.search_highlight}">
<input type="hidden" name="search_color" value="{$smarty.config.search_color}">

{jr_lang id="83" default="search area"}:<br>
{jr_html_select name="genre" options="example.cfg" selected=""}<br>

<input type="submit" value="{jr_lang id="9" default="search"}" class="jform button">
</form></div>


this is calling a text file with a list of genres that i want as search criteria. It is suppose to return a list of artists that belong to the genre searched. It worked originally by only returning the artists genre in the original jamroom database, but not include the data in the new tables I created.

Now I am getting no results, after creating the artistclipboard.php which is placed in

module/digital_clipboard/ranking/artistclipboard.php

Directoy.

I just want to have my artist simply search by genre and get the results from my new database table.


Please Help!

A blank page means a PHP syntax error - make sure your plugin is valid PHP, and check the PHP Error Log for your Jamroom when logged in as the master admin.

Hope this helps!

I checked and fixed the php errors, but now its providing me with results from the original jamroom database, but does not include any of the data in the new database tables I created.

I am not getting any new php errors. How do I find why the data is not showing?

Thanks

First did you check the db and see tht it was there.

Yes the db is fine. I am pulling data logged in as an admin, but as an artist the data is not being pulled from the new tables.

What does your ranking plugin look like? Have you defined the proper search areas?

Hope this helps!
