Design and Skin Customization

Annush:
Hi Brian - Sorry. That was an absolute waste of your time and only goes to show my lack of know-how. I've had my platform from you guys for some time now and haven't done anything with it as i don't have any understanding of putting it together.
Could you please advise me how best I can go about approaching you/your team to set it up and asses the cost. I've tried the monthly support, of which I get my problems solved, but mean nothing to me since I cannot implement them.
Thanks for your time. Much appreciated.

No worries :)

Contact us at support [at] jamroom [dot] net and we can help you get setup how you want.

Hope this helps!

How to set up hostnames for google


Using Jamroom

the .htaccess file is a "hidden" file, so you have to make sure your SFTP client is set to show hidden files.

Modifying the .htaccess file makes it really easy to break your site as well, so I can change it for you.

Do you want your site to always use the "www" or always NOT use the "www"?

This is not something to do with JR - does it tell you WHAT domain it thinks is redundant?

When updating my account details, as regular user, I am forced to reset my password


Using Jamroom

It sounds like you have customized your User Account settings in the FORM DESIGNER and set the Password field to REQUIRED:

1) Visit the User Account settings page as the admin
2) Click on "Form Designer" in the upper right
3) Click on the "Modify" for the "Password" field
4) Make sure that "Required" is NOT CHECKED (near the bottom) and save

Repeat for the "Repeat Password" field.

Load balancing multiple servers


Using Jamroom

DannyA:
What's the redis cache? I found a link to details in jamroom site search but its broken

It's not released yet, but will be coming with JR Cloud 2.0 - it's a new caching/sessions module that uses Redis:

Load balancing multiple servers


Using Jamroom

You're always going to have to run a Jamroom install on some of the cluster servers:

- App Servers (front end servers)
- Conversion workers
- Cluster Master (which runs the Queue server and conversion master)

the MySQL database and Redis cache servers do not need a JR install.

When updating my account details, as regular user, I am forced to reset my password


Using Jamroom

researchcooperative:
Thanks. That setting makes sense for someone who is actually changing their critical account details - the email address and password. But it seems that changes to other fields in the account settings form get caught in the net.

i.e. I login as a regular member to my regular member account. I want to quickly change the spelling of my location (for example) in the account settings form. So I make a minor change there, but then learn, after attempting to save my little change, that I also have to re-enter my password twice, and then once more, because of the security in place for changing an email address or password.

If this is how the system is designed to work, then it is not user-friendly.

No - it is not designed that way, and only looks if the user is trying to change their email address or password. I'm not aware of it NOT working - are you sure you're not changing other information about the account?

The requested URL /genosis-open-source/user/signup was not found on this server.


Installation and Configuration

itsken:
OK i fixed it ... it needs to be in a virtual host, the documentation could do with some updating ...
The files can't live in /genosis-open-source it needs to in / --> that is the document root

Jamroom can run in a sub directory no problem (I probably have 50+ installs here in sub directories). Most likely on your server what is needed is to tell mod_rewrite what the "rewrite base" is - i.e.

RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase  /genosis-open-source
