Ning archiver issue
Installation and Configuration

I'm not 100% sure since we can't see what the files are, but they could just be images - as long as we can get all the JSON files, it should be good.

Hope this helps!

Jamroom Hosting is now live for everyone!
Jamroom Hosting

Yep - we have a guide for it right here:

https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/jamroom-hosting/2547/importing-an-existing-jamroom-site-to-a-domain

As an example I moved my Genosis family site:

http://johnsonfamily.talldude.net/

which is now running on Jamroom Hosting - it took about 5 minutes to transfer 17 gigs (it was already on linode) - I did not touch SFTP once :)

Lightbox
Off Topic

hammondegs:Is there support in JamRoom for opening an html document in a lightbox?
If so, what is the procedure?
Thanks.

Yes - but "lightbox" is for images, what you're looking for is a "modal" window - i.e.

<div id="document" style="display:none">
    .... YOUR HTML HERE ....
</div>
<input type="button" value="view the document" onclick="$('#document').modal()">

Hope this helps!

Hierarchical pages navigation in Jamroom
Using Jamroom

So basically:

http://www.mysite.com/reviews/electric_guitars/fender/strat/review2

"reviews" - this would be the Aparna module URL
"electric_guitars" this would be $_post.option
"fender - would be $_post._1
"review2" - would be $_post_2

That would not work well that way - you need to have an ID in there - i.e.

http://www.mysite.com/reviews/15/electric_guitars/fender/strat/review2

Which is going to uniquely identify that review AND would make the module much easier - all you do is create a "default" view in your module index.php file - i.e.:

view_myModuleName_default($_post, $_user, $_conf)

And inside that function you would run a jrCore_db_get_item for $_post.option - i.e.

view_myModuleName_default($_post, $_user, $_conf)
{
    $_rt = jrCore_db_get_item('myModuleName', $_post.option);
    // now $_rt contains the review
    return jrCore_parse_template('review.tpl', $_rt, 'myModuleName');
}

Create a template called "review.tpl" in your myModuleName/templates directory and style it to meet your needs.

Hope this helps!

A fixed audio player
Jamroom Developers

This is something that will eventually find it's way into Jamroom - the problem right now is that it requires you to build the site as a "single page" AJAX app, which would be much too complicated for our users to customize.

I've got an idea how to make this work with any skin, but it's going to require a change out to using SoundManager2 for all audio (instead of jPlayer) so will be something you see in a major release of JR (i.e. 5.3, 5.4, etc.).

I have not started on it at this time.

multiple image uploads on image form field
Using Jamroom

I just checked out the merchandise store module which supports multiple images per item, and I'm not seeing any issues - there really should not be anything you need to do. I do see that "value" is being set to false:

    // Product Images
    $_tmp = array(
        'name'     => 'product_image',
        'label'    => 25,
        'help'     => 26,
        'text'     => 27,
        'type'     => 'image',
        'value'    => false,
        'multiple' => true,
        'required' => false
    );
    jrCore_form_field_create($_tmp);

So you might try that.

Hope this helps!

Just an update that this was added in Jamroom Core 5.2.26 - you should be able to define the individual URLs now.

Hope this helps!
