AdminSkin and browser back button



Thanks Steve - that's kind of what I figured. I know Michael created the module since he had the same issue.

Ideally though there are no templates you should need for the admin side of things - i.e. check out Elastic, you'll see there are no admin templates, so any custom skin should (hopefully) "just work". I'm not sure about bootstrap though - maybe that interferes with things?

AdminSkin and browser back button



Thanks Steve. The admin skin module is a bit tricky to maintain, as we basically have to put in each view that needs to be included/excluded from the site/admin/profile skin into a large switch statement. So there's almost always another way to "break" it.

I'm not a big fan of the module - let me ask you why you choose to use it? I know a lot if users DO use it, so its certainly something our users like so we'll do our best to provide it, but I'm curious what benefit you feel it brings to your site by using it.

If you use it provide a different skin for your profiles versus the site, the Profile Tweaks module might be a better fit for that use case.

Curious to get some feedback to find out why users want to use this module.

Thanks Steve!

Jamroom Core 6.0.0 Alpha 1



Right now the plan for JR 6 is to release the new Jamroom 6 core + our big "social" updates:

- all new "Follow Me" skin
- heavily updated Timeline module with new "Quick Share" feature + a bunch of other cool updates
- updated URL Scan module that creates "cards" for shares
- new Birthday module
- new "Pulse" feature in Profiles (shows you "new" items)

Our focus right now is just on that - our goal is to have it out of beta by the end of this month, and we're REALLY close to getting it in to your guy's hands.

Once JR 6 is out, Chat and the new Payment setup will follow very shorty - I'll be switching my attention to those modules - Chat will likely come out first, as it is further along, then the new Payment setup.

We need the new Payment setup here on Jamroom.net, so I've got some motivation to make it awesome.

Jamroom Core 6.0.0 Alpha 1



yep - you may see an error like that during the upgrade and integrity check. Delete that error, run the integrity check again and let me know if you see it again.

There's a new _profile_id column in all DS tables, so any request that comes in during the integrity check will likely get an SQL error.

Jamroom Core 6.0.0 Alpha 1



There's not a lot your going to see different in the core compared to JR Core 5.4.x (or even 5.3.x), but there's "under the hood" improvements in there :)

Where you'll see the big changes are on the profile with the new "Follow Me" skin + Timeline and Url Scanner updates.

I'll be doing a blog post real shortly here on what's coming in Jamroom 6.

Thanks!

Jamroom Core 6.0.0 Alpha 1



I've just uploaded the new Jamroom Core 6.0.0a1 to the marketplace - in the Alpha Channel.

If anyone does NOT have access to the Alpha marketplace channel, please let me know so I can invite you to it.

This new core doesn't have a lot of changes since 5.4.0b4, but it does have some low level schema changes to the DataStore that should make it perform much better on large DS's (250,000+ items).

Please test this out on your dev site and let me know if you see any issues.

Thanks!

Problem adding image to existing gallery


Using Jamroom

This is actually already fixed for the next release - I ran into this during testing a couple days back as well. We have a couple other changes that are in testing right now, so will have that update in the marketplace on Monday/Tuesday.

Thanks!

dnsquery.org insecure connection



I've got a new setup in the next User module update that uses the Geo Location modules + a whois query to get a nice layout (see screenshot).

How to undo Update Changes?


Using Jamroom

derrickhand300:
YES- thats what I have been trying to explain-Its not only the saving of the templates-updates to the tinymce editr ERASE my plugin folders...you explained to me awhile back that i needed to use aparna to make those into custom modules to stop them from being effected...but its easier for me to just add them back to the tinymce plugins folder after each update..:)

That's the correct way though - here's how you want to set it up for EACH plugin:

1) Create acloned aparna module (sounds like you already did this)
2) inside the modules/ClonedModule directory create a directory called "tinymce"
3) upload the custom tinymce plugin to that directory so the plugin.min.js file is located at modules/CustomModule/tinymce/plugin.min.js (this is why you can only have one tinymce plugin per module).
4) repeat steps 1 -> 3 for each tiny mce plugin you have

5) Next, create the tinymce editor override files:

skins/CustomSkin/jrCore_form_editor.tpl
skins/CustomSkin/jrSiteBuilder_form_editor.tpl

Modify those 2 editor templates to include your custom plugins.

That should do it - going forward upgrades should not affect your editor setup.

How to undo Update Changes?


Using Jamroom

I just thought of something - you're not just customizing the template, you also have some extra TinyMCE plugins you have to upload right?
