What are the future plans for Jamroom ?

Using Jamroom

Yep - JR development is still ongoing - we've never stopped

Note that the bulk of our development time has moved to custom development for our largest Jamroom users - lots of custom module and skin work is happening there all the time. Some of it ends up with new modules and features that get released to everyone, but a lot of the work is proprietary and can't be released in the marketplace.

I've been working on the new Jamroom Core 7.0 for a bit here - we're dropping < PHP 7.1 support so right now it's about updating the code to take advantage of new PHP features and make sure everything works on PHP 8.1+

Jamroom Installation Error (No tables being created)

Installation and Configuration

This is definitely PHP 8.1 related - I've updated to PHP 8.1.5 and am seeing issues. If you can, roll back to 7.X or 8.0 and you should be good. There's some coming deprecated in PHP 9 that we're going to have to address, so we'll get internal trackers open on those.

Thanks!

Jamroom Installation Error (No tables being created)

Installation and Configuration

I'll need to do a test with the latest MySQL 8 - I've moved to MariaDB for development and have not been testing with MySQL 8 as much as I should - I suspect it is something with that. I don't believe it's a PHP8 issue since I test with PHP8.

Thanks for the report - we'll check it out.

PHP 8.0

Jamroom Developers

Yep sorry about this - have been out this last week and forgot to follow up on this when I got back.

Right now we do not support PHP 8 on existing servers - we can migrate your existing site to a NEW server that would support PHP 8 if that sounds good.

Just an FYI that in my testing here however, 7.4 is more performant than 8 - I would not upgrade to 8 just for str_contains() (you can always use strpos).

Shoot an email to support if you'd like to move servers.

Thanks!

Hook for server-based final validation of new comment

Jamroom Developers

Yep that's a good listener location - the other one if you need to get even earlier is the jrCore parse_url event.

Jrbones skin missing some templates??

Design and Skin Customization

I apologize for that being active in the stable channel of the marketplace - that is a custom skin designed for a client. Please if you can remove it from your site.

I'm really sorry about that being available for install when it should not have been.

Thanks!

Problems with images

Using Jamroom

It looks like your privacy settings on your profile are preventing access to the images:


One tip: You can add "?debug=true" to the end of any image that doesn't seem to be working and the image module will try to tell you why it is not working - i.e.:

https://nvandendries.nl/upimg/image/upimg_file/10/original/_v=82e3c1625663009?debug=true

So make sure the profile that holds those images is not private.

Hope this helps!

Using Jamroom

I'm not sure - check your activity log and error log for errors in your dashboard. It also could be the Spam Blocker module blocking what akismet reports as spam (if you have that enabled).

Jamroom triggering high CPU on hosting

Using Jamroom

You have Apache resource limits in place, so you're just running in to that. You could just try restarting your web server to see if that helps, otherwise there isn't really anything we can do for you here other then you can upgrade your plan to one that is not resource limited.

As for APCu if you see that error in the Server Check then it means the "apcu_add" function does NOT exist in your install:

https://www.php.net/apcu_add

Regardless of what your hosting panel is showing.

Let me know if that helps.

Conversion Worker

Jamroom Developers

It's been a really long time since I've looked at these modules - I believe you want the cron server on your master server and the conversion server and worker on the conversion server. I no longer have these installed anywhere nor test with them in any way so support for these is going to be super limited. Sorry about that.
