Not sure if there is something messed-up in the skin settings - NINGJA
Installation and Configuration

AndyF:Brian, I guess I don't understand how to get pages that are built under SITE < PAGE CREATOR < CREATE A NEW PAGE to show up on "Page is visible on main site". No problems with "Page is visible on profile". Am I missing a setting?

I don't think you're doing anything wrong - I just went through it again and this time I don't see the title under the pages section, so something is up. I can see the page is being created correctly, so I'm assuming it is a page "index" issue either for the page module or the NingJa skin.

Let me check it out further and I will get it fixed.

Hope this helps!

Play random playlist tracks using jamroom jplayer
Design and Skin Customization

johnchansa:Ok..
I guess that's what the playlist module already does.
I'll work with the info you have provided and maybe create separate playlists for soundcloud and audio tracks.

Cheers!

Sounds good - thanks!

Meta Information on Playlist shares
Installation and Configuration

Ken_Rich:Hi Brian,

I know where to find the second one, but where do I enter the first one? Is it the general meta.tpl for the whole skin?

Yeah - you could just add:

{if isset($item_playlist_description)}
<meta property="og:description" content="{$item_playlist_description|jrCore_entity_string}" />
{/if}

In to your meta.tpl file. Let me know if that works.

So what you want to do here is use an "Open Graph" tag instead of a meta tag. change your meta tag to:

<meta property="og:description" content="{$item_playlist_description|jrCore_entity_string}" />

And that should work.

As for the colors, you'll want to modify the jrPlaylist/css/jrPlaylist_player_dark.css file and add or update a CSS class to specifically target the title - i.e.:

.jp-playlist a {
    color: #FFFFFF !important;
}

Hope this helps!

Site Builder Recovery backup
Suggestions

You want to setup the DB and System backup module:

https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/networkmarket/22/db-and-system-backup

it backs up your site every night and you can restore individual tables if needed.

Hope this helps!

Play random playlist tracks using jamroom jplayer
Design and Skin Customization

johnchansa:Thanks..
My playlists have both audio and soundcloud tracks.Can the function be made to work for both?
See link to playlist below(it's for the site radio player.....)

[url]http://www.zmusicportal.com/radio_player/playlist_id=1/title=Top%20Hits%20Selection/autoplay=true[/url]

Yeah - but then it won't be random - instead of doing a search you would just have to pass in the playlist item, and create a playlist on the site of the tracks you want to include in the player - i.e.:

{jrCore_media_player module="jrPlaylist" item_id=#}

Where "#" is the item ID of the playlist you have created.

Installation and Configuration

I just tested this here and I am not seeing any issues - can you let me know how you are creating the new page so I can try to replicate it?

Thanks!

AndyF:When clicking on "Page visible on profile" under the page location settings when building a page with the NINGJA skin, the page will show up in the page navigation at the top (main site).

When clicking on "Page visible on main site" under the page location settings when building a page, the page is not visible anywhere on the site (except when I go to the ACP, Page Creator, Browse Existing Pages).

I will check this out an see what's up.

Thanks!

Design and Skin Customization

Yeah you can do this - the {jrCore_media_player} template function supports searches just like {jrCore_list} so you can so something like:

{jrCore_media_player type="jrPlaylist_player_dark" module="jrAudio" field="audio_file"  search="_item_id > 0" order_by="audio_title random" limit=20}

Adjust the "search" parameter to suit your needs.

Hope this helps!

You're using ShareThis right? We can override the "default" share template with specific ones for any module.

Do you have a URL to a page you are trying to share and not seeing a description? I need to look how the ShareThis code is being generated.

Thanks!
