Embed Vimeo videos using URLs? Why not?


Installation and Configuration

The YouTube API does not require an API key to access - Vimeo's does, thus you need the Client ID and Secret. They are free with a Vimeo account.

Hope this helps!

new "performance test" accuracy


Installation and Configuration

If you're getting only 40 then something is wrong with your server - you don't have an 8 core machine OR you are running on "virtual" cores that are very, very slow.

My 1 CPU Linode personal VPS I use gets ~900.

My Developer Tools skin cloner is not working right


Installation and Configuration

Yes - it makes sense. 95% of all changes in a skin are for the templates - the Javascript that skins "run" is almost all in the modules, so you would rarely need to worry about that. And if you are NOT customizing the JS then you can always just copy the new JS overtop of the JS in your custom skin's SkinName/js directory.

I just want to be sure you guys know how it works. I know it may not be 100% perfect, but it has been really helpful to our customers to know they can update the "default" skins to check them out and see what has changed without worrying about their custom skin changes being overwritten.

Note too that if you look at the change log for a skin when it is updated, Douglas puts the templates that have changed in there which will save you time.

Hope this helps!

Image Troubles


Installation and Configuration

AndyF:I wasn't so sure about things at first but I'm starting to get exited about the possibilities with Jamroom!

Thanks Andy - Jamroom has specific ways of doing things, and after playing with it a bit you'll see we've tried to be as consistent as we can be in how we implement something, so hopefully it becomes intuitive.

Thanks!

Support Ticket lists


Using Jamroom

blindmime:Is there a reason why mydomain.com/tracker doesn't display anything?

There is no templates/index.tpl file for the tracker. You can create if you want, but there's not one by default in the module.

My Developer Tools skin cloner is not working right


Installation and Configuration

Strumelia:In other words, are we supposed to manually look for and install all the new updates to our clone?

Yes - this is correct. The "compare" template tool was designed to help with this. Once you create a new skin (say "myCustomSkin") that is cloned from an existing skin, it "stands alone". If you clone it from jrNingja, and the update jrNingja, it does NOT update your "myCustomSkin" (nor would we want it to!).

The primary goal with cloning is not to try to keep everything in "sync" with the skin you cloned from, but is designed to allow you to customize your site without worrying about losing changes when you update.

Let me know if that helps.

Image Troubles


Installation and Configuration

The images in the Gallery come from the image gallery - make sure in the ACP -> Media -> Image Gallery -> Quota Config tab that you check the "apply to all quotas" and then make sure the "allowed on profile" is checked and saved.

It could be you're not allowing the images on your user profiles.

Hope this helps!

My Developer Tools skin cloner is not working right


Installation and Configuration

Strumelia:Wait... some customizations seem to be now appearing where they did not ten minutes ago (and yes I cached and integretied...)
I need to do some some more waiting and testing, but maybe it just takes a few minutes to show up, or maybe only half as bad as it looked at first-

I'll get back here in an hour or two to update.

Double check too that you're cloned skin is the "active" skin as well. All caching uses the skin name as part of the cache key prefix, so you should immediately see your changes (if they are there) after making your cloned skin active.

Hope this helps!

At this time you will have to do a custom pager if you need the lists loaded via an AJAX call. We have a ticket open on this to get support into the core pager for doing AJAX loads, but it's not ready to go.
