Changing email language strings
Installation and Configuration

Just to add what Michael has posted (i.e. you can customize the subject/messages to suit your needs) - right now we do not have support for sending notifications from different email addresses. It would take a new framework to make that happen, so it's not on the "TODO" list at this time.

are these hack attacks and any way to filter them
Installation and Configuration

thechocolatelife:Did you hear about China doing a DDOS on a security research blog? Rather than just bouncing requests, they redirected the requests to a small number of sites.

I am wondering if, with mod_rewrite or some Apache something, you could redirect the requests to /wp any subdirectory back to the requesting host? The more they ping you the more you ping them back?

If so - I'd be happy to add that to mine as they are not going to go away and as they might be phishing bots they are certainly going to ignore your robots.txt file.

You definitely do not want to do this (as attractive as it seems) - you're likely to get your server shutdown at the network level by the hosting provider as they will see DOS style traffic coming from your interface. And regardless, you cannot "ping" a single site fast enough from a single interface to actually do anything.

put image watermark only on images for sale
Suggestions

soaringeagle:please include anoption to only include the watermark on images that are offered for same

I believe you mean "sale" - I think we could actually support that.

Quote:also on images for same disable right click same image as options

This is not supportable - don't interfere with your user's browser - that is always a bad idea.

Newsletter Subscription
Using Jamroom

I've just pushed up version 1.2.0 of the Newsletter module that now properly integrates into the Notifications section.

Update and let me know if you see any issues.

Thanks!

Newsletter Subscription
Using Jamroom

hammondegs:I am also requesting that "Newsletter" be added to the "Notifications" interface on all user accounts, thus allowing users to subscribe/unsubscribe at will. Currently it is not available and is confusing to most of my members.

I was certain this was already supported, but I also do not see it - I will check that out.

Thanks!

You want to re-install the Seamless module:

ACP -> Marketplace -> Tools -> Reload Modules or Skins -> Reload Seamless

Hope this helps!

Jamroom Hosting - looking for a few beta testers
Jamroom Hosting

Ken_Rich:When you get a chance, could you put the required steps in the the documentation? Then the "technically challenged" (like me) will have a clearly defined exit strategy, which translates into "peace of mind".

I can definitely add documentation when I get there. For now just do this: Install the S3 Backup module, turn it on, and forget about it :)

Your DB and data will be backed up nightly to YOUR (100% under your control) S3 bucket.

That way you always have a backup on a daily basis that you can access.

Can anyone suggest how to achieve this...
Installation and Configuration

Roy Simmons:Just noticed 'quota config' for the images gallery has apply to all quotas unchecked, should I check that box?

So Jamroom Quotas are how you control what your users have access to in your Jamroom:

https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/getting-started/693/the-jamroom-quota-system

So you would only check the "Apply to All Quotas" if you wanted to apply the settings you are viewing to ALL your quotas. You likely don't normally want to do that.

Go to ACP -> Media -> Image Galleries and for EACH quota (selected in the "Selected Quota" dropdown) that you want the "Gallery" option to appear for on their profile, make sure the "Allowed on Profile" option is checked, then save.

Unable to change layout
Design and Skin Customization

Looking at your site I can see that mod_rewrite is no longer functioning properly. I believe you are on Godaddy - if you recently made changes to the .htaccess it can take many hours for the changes to "set".

Roy Simmons:I am trying to understand how to have a global image gallery. My current ning site has a single image gallery where any users can upload up to 5 photos a day. I am struggling to understand how this happens in JR. I have the ningja skin to try out. Ideally would like several main galleries or at least 2, in our case photos and artwork. Any pointers appreciated.

The NingJa skin is already setup to feature a "global gallery". Your users can simply upload images directly from the "gallery" section on their profile.

Hope this helps!
