New “Profile Pulse” for profile notification counts


Using Jamroom

Ceri:Ahhh right..... so it only works if I use that skin right?

At the moment yes - we'll likely add it into other skins where it makes sense. With Follow Me focusing 100% on 'social' it makes sense it will use it a lot.

Basically what Profile Pulse is is a new "what's new" notification system - i.e. modules can say "when this event happens, create a pulse counter". The Profile module provides the framework for allowing create and update pulse counts.

It's up to the skin to "get" the counts where needed, as well as reset them when needed. Initially we were going to try to automate that part as much as we could, but realized that each skin is likely to do it differently.

Let me know if that helps.

User Birthday Module


Using Jamroom

SteveX:I don't see the birthday module in the network market (logged in), and nothing is returned when I search for "birthday".

No issues here - make sure you've subscribed to the Jamroom 6 Beta channel on the site. I just tested from one of my "live" sites and I see it.

Wrong Meta Lang value in the Meta Tag


Using Jamroom

I have just finished testing this and I think I know what is going on here. So by default if Jamroom sees:

1) the user is not logged in
2) does not have a language preference cookie set
3) is not SETTING their lang preference (via the "set_user_language" param)

Then the next thing it does is look at the user's HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE string from their browser and see's if their browser preferred language is available on the site - if it is it uses it, else it drops to using the default language.

So in this case when you are testing it your browser is likely reporting that English is the primary preferred language, which is why you don't see the meta tag lang strings change.

Let me know if that makes sense.

Thanks!

There's no functionality lost in Jamroom 6, so let us know if you feel something is no longer working.

Thanks!

I don't believe it is supported in a blog post, but timeline entries and comments should be working.

User Birthday Module


Using Jamroom

Holly Dilatush:I assume that once activated, when that birthday comes, we'll see something else somewhere... I'm not sure where?
... only on profile page? a notification on home page?

From the module description:
Quote:The User Birthday module adds a custom form field into the User Account form so a user can enter their birthday (day and month only). On their birthday an "It's your birthday" entry will be created in their timeline, with a feature that allows their followers to wish them a Happy Birthday.

comments order newest first?


Installation and Configuration

What you're asking here is for comments to be order one way for the entire site, and then one SPECIAL way for just one location. Due to how the comment module has to handle threading, replying and ordering, this is not something the module can support.

Sorry!

User Birthday Module


Using Jamroom

Ceri:I am using the Ningja skin and the birthdates were all imported from Ning. There is also a signup question for this . I have a b'day module already which was coded by Paul about 6 months ago and it works perfectly so I dont understand why the official module doesnt work at all. I guess I can continue to use what I already have but I wanted to compare my current setup witrh the official module and see which worked better/looked better etc.

The New birthday module is a not a ning import module - it is it's own code base that I'm certain works differently than your custom module - just don't use the new one if it doesn't work for your site.

You should be able to mention users - I'm not seeing an issue with it here.

Where are you doing the mention at?

Thanks!

erroneous disk usage % info for my server?


Installation and Configuration

Looking at this it looks like there was an API error when our system tried to resize the disk on your server - it's currently only using 50% of the available space. I can fix this manually for you, but I'll have to take the server down again for a few minutes while the disk space is re-allocated.

Sorry for the hassle - to be honest this is the first time in a year and a half of resizing I have seen this, so will try to figure out why it happened and get some code in to catch it.

I'm not currently in my office and would prefer to do this in the AM if possible - if you can open a support ticket and I will get this fixed up for you first thing in the AM. Again, sorry for the hassle.

Thanks!
