Advanced Charts


Installation and Configuration

Audio charts are pretty much "automatic" - you should not need to do anything. How long have you had the audio module installed with audio files uploaded and plays being counted? Each night the system stores the play counts for the items, and the chart_days variable determines how far back in the history it looks. If you set chart_days to "30" but only have 5 day of history, then every audio entry will appear as "new". So you need to have MORE history than the chart_days.

Let me know if that helps.

Forum search results seem unlikely


Using Jamroom

These are REALLY common words, so the full text sorting algorithm is going to weight and sort them based on density, so it could just be that the most "error" filled post is from 2 years ago. The search algo thinks that is the best one to show you since you just wanted "error".

Contact Form Replies


Design and Skin Customization

derrickhand300:
My question is about using the contact form...I would like to respond directly to the contact forms I receive in emails by responding to that email
Currently I have to copy/paste the persons email address in a new email to reply
How can i change it so i can respond directly using the emails?

You really can't right now - something would have to create a mailto: link. If you install the support tickets module however, then you will see a "reply" button that will jump you right into the Create Ticket form with their email so you can send them a reply.

Let me know if that helps.

Notification of new topic in followed profile forum


Using Jamroom

iamtimbo:
Unless I'm missing something, is it not possible for users to receive notifications when new topics are started in the forums of profiles they follow?
Not at this time - there's nothing in the profile forum module to do this, and I could see it being VERY "chatty". Image a profile with 2,000 followers - not sure you'd want to be sending out thousands of emails every time a new forum topic is created.

Group Mailer question


Using Jamroom

perrie:
So first I would have to create a quota, and lets say I call it "Group Owners" and then I would put the module into that quota?

You should already have quotas on your system? You just need to enable the module in the quotas you want it to be enabled in.

Another 'data too long' error....


Using Jamroom

iamtimbo:
Thanks, Michael.....43,000 a lot? I don't know what you mean...!

I've seen the query that produced this error, and the reason is that your user account is linked to thousands and thousands of profiles, which is NOT normal. normally your user account will be linked to 1 or a few profiles. If you need to be linked to every profile in your system, it's better to just set your account up as an admin or master admin account.

Do you have a custom setup that is assigning every new profile on your system to your user id?

Thanks!

Market Place Sort


Suggestions

The marketplace is ordered by updated time - I've got a TODO here to update this, but at this time it's not high priority. It will get updated in the future though :)

Why Close Discussions?


Using Jamroom

This is an optional setting in the Profile Forum module. We have it set to 90 days here in the Jamroom Support forum so we can be sure our users receive the "latest" advice. A lot can change in a module in 90 days, and often advice that is a year old no longer applies.

For your site this is something you just would not enable, allowing users to add a reply at any time.

Let me know if that helps.

profile domains and ffmpeg issues after switching to nginx


Installation and Configuration

soaringeagle:
i am

I'm not sure what to say then - It works pretty much on any Linux 3+ kernel, and I've never seen an instance where it will decode only audio, but not video.

Are you setting the Delivery Method setting to "External SMTP server"?

Thanks!
