How to Add A TinyMCE Box on an Edit button?
Design and Skin Customization

Ken_Rich:Thanks Michael... Not sure why Jamroom doesn't already have a module like that, since a "pop-out" WYSIWYG editor is done almost universally elsewhere.

Having developed Jamroom for 11+ years, only new Ning users (like you) have ever asked for this, so it's not something we've created. Anything custom like this would be made specific to the Ning modules/skins.

Thanks!

Email Templates
Jamroom Developers

Natedogg265:I have a client that want to customize his email templates with some HTML.

Is there a master templates or do I need to edit each one?

There is a master header/footer in the core module, otherwise you need to customize each one.

Hope this helps!

Adding attributes to htmlpurifier in a listener
Jamroom Developers

Steve - I've got this fixed for the Jamroom Core 5.2.18 release - inside your listener you'll want to set BOTH the elements and attributes. For example, to add the "blockquote" element and allow the "class" attribute you would do:

$_elem = $_data->get('HTML.AllowedElements');
$_elem['blockquote'] = 1;
$_elem = implode(',', array_keys($_elem));
$_data->set('HTML.AllowedElements', $_elem);

$_attr = $_data->get('HTML.AllowedAttributes');
$_attr['blockquote.class'] = 1;
$_attr = implode(',', array_keys($_attr));
$_data->set('HTML.AllowedAttributes', $_attr);

Hope this helps!

How to change the # comments shown?
Suggestions

I personally like all comments on the same page, so I think it's going to be up to the site owner to decide how they want it. We can definitely look at improvements to make it easier to do (i.e. skin config) which we're doing.

Hope this helps!

Session Length Too Short
Using Jamroom

Strumelia:fwiw, I am not having that problem at all. I've been coming to this JR site on and off for weeks and have never had to log in since the first time. (mostly windows with firefox, some mac with safari)

Thanks @Strumelia - appreciate the feedback ;)

No Volume Control in Mobile View
Using Jamroom

It's by design - on a mobile phone you adjust the volume by turning the volume up and down on the device.

You can modify the audio player templates to suit your needs - they are in:

modules/jrAudio/templates

Jamroom uses jPlayer so you can find a comprehensive guide to customizing here:

http://jplayer.org/latest/developer-guide/

Hope this helps!

File Upload Size Limit
Using Jamroom

Ken_Rich:Thanks Brian. It's actually for a subscribed client who wants to to sell a huge zip of their artwork.

However, this speaks to another issue. File size controls are global, not specific.

For example, an increase in the picture size limit to accommodate someone who wants to upload extreme HI DEF images for gallery sales, also allows the technically challenged to upload enormous pictures for profiles pics and content icons.

Of course those should be small for fast loading, but some of my clients don't understand tech issues. More control over such things at the admin level would be nice.

For images you really don't need to worry about this - all images are "resized" as needed, so you're never streaming or displaying the full size image.

Hope this helps!

File Upload Size Limit
Using Jamroom

Just an FYI as well, that a max upload size of 1024M is going to be pretty big. If your plan is to allow users to upload video files of up to a Gig in size, I'd highly recommend that you have your own dedicated, multi core server - converting a 1 gig video to FLV + MP4 would likely take several hours. So just an FYI.

Session Length Too Short
Using Jamroom

Ken_Rich:Hi Brian,

I have to login at Jamroom often as well.

I actually have thought you guys have a bug or something, because I login, navigate to a different part of your site, and then have to login all over again even though I just did it seconds ago.

yeah something is not right. I spend a significant amount of hours every day here on Jamroom.net (obviously) and have never seen this.

Quote:Quite irritating actually - I don't have that trouble on my site. With mine the login stays while navigating, it just doesn't last as long as it should - perhaps an hour or two at the most.

I don't notice these problems on other sites which is why I don't think it's browser related, and Jamroom isn't being run on our server, so why is the problem even worse on your jamroom.net site?

Kind of confusing symptoms - I don't really know what to make of it.

I have no idea - I've never seen this, and you're the first to tell us this is happening, so I have no idea why this is impacting you.

Is it the same on all browsers?

Thanks!

File Upload Size Limit
Using Jamroom

Ken_Rich:Hi Brian - OK thanks - I'll go back to him again.

We are actually at 4,096 on those settings, to supposedly give us 1,024 upload.

He's contacted to the datacenter 3 times over it, so wanted to be sure there was nothing else involved before bugging them again.

OK let me know. Do you have root access to your server? If so and you still cannot get it to work contact me at support [at] jamroom [dot] net and I will fix it for you.

Hope this helps!
