Disabling User and Maintaining Their Content


Installation and Configuration

Asil:The purpose is to keep the content of users who have either left the network, or been banned from the network, visible to all users. And, to stop the banned member from being able to access the site and delete content.

This is the only way I can think of to create the effect.

My question: is there a better way to do it?

Yes - there is a better way. While it's not viewable in the User Account section, just click on the "View Keys" option in the User Browser the search for the username. Set the "user_active" value to "0" (zero) and save.

That will prevent the user from being able to log in.

Like other posters have mentioned however, you might want to discuss this strategy with a lawyer and ensure your Terms of Service cover you the best you can.

"Jamroom Lists" -- and access to the JR Glossary


Suggestions

jrCore_list is part of the Jamroom Core (which is open source and free).

Most sites typically want to "list" things:

- top songs
- newest members
- most recent discussions
- top rated items

etc.

This is what jrCore_list does:

https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/development/89/jrcore-list

It is a template function, and can be thought of as the "swiss army knife" of listing things.

Hope this helps!

Profile Quotas


Off Topic

Are things working for you now or do you still see the empty quota names? If you see empty quotas, click on "rename" and see if you can set a name for them.

Jamroom Hosting

Quote:1. What came with the Jamroom server?

The Jamroom server "hosts" Jamroom for you. Jamroom does NOT run on YOUR local computer (PC or Mac). It runs on the Jamroom Server.

Quote:2. Do I still have to download the Ning to Jamroom program or is it already on the server. If isn't, then I have to do that first.

No - the only thing you download to YOUR computer (again your local PC or Mac) is the Ning Archive files (it sounds like you may already have these on your external hard drive?)

Also "Ning To Jamroom" is a set of modules that run inside Jamroom on your Jamroom server. It is not something you download and run on YOUR computer.

So at this time, you need to use FileZilla (FTP client) to connect to your Jamroom server and UPLOAD the Ning Archive to your Jamroom Server.

Followers and following


Installation and Configuration

Change the "pagebreak" values in:

jrFollower/templates/item_index.tpl.

It is set at 16, so I would recommend multiples of 4.

Hope this helps!

Share your Performance Check Results


Announcements

Your results are stored in the backend here correctly (I can see them) - not sure why they are not updating to reflect that on your site though, but I can check that out.

You're score is awesome and is that high because:

1) you have a really high single CPU score
2) you have 8 of those CPUs :)

You should be able to handle a very large load on your site. Nice one!

Jamroom.net menu viewed on a mobile phone


Using Jamroom

Actually we have been moving all mobile views AWAY from the style of menu you see on Jamroom.net and to the slider menu, which is more intuitive and is a widely accepted mobile paradigm. As someone who uses JR's mobile site daily, the current menu is no good - the next is too small and its hard sometimes to click on what you want.

It's still on my TODO to change Jamroom.net's menu to match our other skins.
