Glad to see you got that fixed up. Do you have an older Jamroom license - i.e. Jamroom 3 or 4?
Item Tags not incrementing count
Using Jamroom
Yeah Follow Me is active - click on "Elastic 2", scroll down and CHECK the "Set as Active Skin" and save. Then reset caches.
I'd recommend at this stage using a desktop instead of mobile - you'll have an easier time.

Yeah something is messed up - are you using Elastic2? Your screenshots don't look like Elastic2, so my assumption has been you already customized it, but based on our back and forth that does not seem like the case. If you're NOT using Elastic 2, I'd recommend switching over to it since I think it will work more like you're looking for. If you're using Follow Me, Follow Me is not really designed as a blogging skin.

jrblack1175:I don’t know. It seemed like an out of the box function for a blog. I need to know where to go to make it work. I just installed this sw, and it didn’t seem like custom coding would be required to tag blogs and then see the tags.
You can always see the tags - but that's not what you're talking about - you're talking about the COUNT. I've attached a screenshot of a blog post with 2 tags I just created, using Elastic 2. You can see the tags.
In the screenshot you posted you can see the tag ("Holiday Story"), so again I'm not sure what you mean. My assumption is you are talking about the COUNT next to the small tag icon showing "0" instead of "1" - is that correct?

Using Jamroom
OK got it - you're simply talking about the COUNT of the number of tags on the item. For some reason I thought you were talking about not being able to find tagged items.
The number of tags on the item will be available in the "blog_tags_count" key (if this is a blog entry, it would be "audio_tags_count" if it was an audio file, "video_tags_counts" if it was a video entry, etc.).
Which template are you adding these counts to? (the one from your first screenshot above).

Well welcome back
Make sure you copy everything recursively - you want all subdirectories, etc.

MetalScene:error: jrCore_checktype: unable to load checktype plugins
This means not all Core files were uploaded to the new server - Jamroom uses symbolic links, so my guess is you just uploaded the symbolic and NOT all the files that are inside. Make sure you've upload ALL files to your new server.

jrblack1175:Interesting concept. Design a skin that will show the little tag icons, and while the function itself works - adding them, clicking on them... But didn’t bother to add the ability to see them as part of the blog post - rendering them more or less moot. So, I need to add a custom ability... And I can view how it’s done, where? How? And will I have to add it back if/when there are updates to the skin?
Other sw providers - if the skin doesn’t support all the features, it’s not released until it does. I’m just amazed...

Sorry this is proving frustrating for you. Jamroom works a bit differently than other frameworks you might have used before, in that you can do A LOT more than it seems on the surface. While other frameworks are going to do like you mention (don't support anything unless it shows on the site), Jamroom is used as a "core" for sites that don't even output HTML. There is a huge amount of flexibility in the templates - frankly more than can be "crammed" in to a single template, and it all depends on WHAT you want to do. Once the concept of template functions is understood, you can literally do anything you want - you're not restricted by those things we've "thought of" ahead of time.
We know this causes more initial friction for a lot of users that are looking for something that is more "plug and play" but to be 100% honest with you, we get a lot of "refugees" from these other systems when they run in to a brick wall with what can and cannot be done on their other system.
Can you let me know what you mean by this:
Quote:didn’t bother to add the ability to see them as part of the blog post
It's not clear to me what you're looking to do. You can add 50 tags to a blog post if you want, then those posts will show up in the tags section so you can see them grouped together. Maybe you're wanting to use them in a way we haven't seen before?
Thanks!
