where the heck is "include profile_header.tpl"


Installation and Configuration

Strumelia:so...do we have to do anything?

No - we can update the action item_action.tpl file to link directly to the comment (I thought it already did but will check it).

Thanks!

Installation and Configuration

Strumelia:Good point SE- we have discussion threads with HUNDREDS of replies...you'd definitely want to be taken to the new post, not to the beginning of a 35 page long forum thread. I can't test that right now though.

This is easy - we have anchors for the items on the page so it is just a URL update.

Installation and Configuration

You can create a new group from your profile - click on "Groups" and you will see the + sign for creating a new group (this is how all modules work too). See my screenshot.

Hope this helps!

Installation and Configuration

Strumelia:Great, 'cause that's quite important if people are to go check out new activity on the site!...especially since we cannot currently 'follow' a Group and be email-notified of new activity within the group.

Thank you!

See my response above ^ :)

where the heck is "include profile_header.tpl"


Installation and Configuration

Strumelia:I now realize that any new comment etc posted in a group that appears on the main page Timeline/Activity feed does not indicate where the comment was posted nor have a link to go see the post or comment.

I have just tested this here and don't see any issues - see my attached image. The @brian links to my profile, and the other blue links point to the comment I made on the Group (bottom on), on a Group Discussion (middle one) and Group Page (top one).

Hope this helps!

the-jamroom-network/forum links to other forums


Suggestions

Strumelia:I was just thinking the other day how it was awkward to keep jumping around- now it's great to have it all under one roof- excellent!

Right on - it's something we've been kicking around, and with more projects it just makes sense.

Thanks!

Suggestion for the Timeline on Main Page


Installation and Configuration

Strumelia:Thanks Douglas!
But can you clarify please?: other people seem to be talking about seeing a trashcan icon when they hover over.... but...is it that NONE of us can use a trash to delete from our main page timeline entries to delete any member's item?

For now that is correct, but it helps to understand why. Jamroom is "profile centered", which means that pretty much everything on the site belongs to a profile (i.e. songs, images, etc.). When you are on the "main" site pages, you're not on a profile and the items on the page usually consist of many different items from many different profiles. The core does not check every single item individually (by default) to see if the viewing user has "permission" to delete it (or modify it), which is why the delete does NOT appear on the main timeline.

So to delete it, you can just click on it and THEN once you are on the user's profile you can delete it.

You can actually override this with a custom action list template, but I'm going to guess you're not going to be spending all day deleting action entries (if you do find yourself doing that then you need to just ban the user that is causing you grief) and so it's probably not a big deal to occasionally delete one by viewing the user's timeline.

Hope this helps!

My Developer Tools skin cloner is not working right


Installation and Configuration

Strumelia:I'm still holding off on applying the latest Ningja skin update until I can make a working clone of my customized Ningja skin once you have fixed the clone tool Brian. I don't want to lose what I've done in my skin templates this past week...and I've been unable to practically use any clones I made up til now- (they don't exhibit the modifications when activated, as I describe above).
Thanks!....

Yep - I know. I should have the new Core release out tomorrow - I'm actually testing right now.

Thanks!

Easy Question


Using Jamroom

GoldFather:or more specifically I was wanting to connect those people in Las Vegas who work in food and beverage. Thought that might be too specific though.

From my experience, the MORE specific the better. You'll have a better chance of cultivating an active community when everyone shares specific common interests. Some of the best sites I've seen have been very niche :)
