jrpages visibled on main site are invisible
Installation and Configuration

soaringeagle:no only says integrity check started but that was a good 20 minutes ago

You've got a bad module or skin - check your PHP Error Log. Integrity check, even on a large system, shouldn't take more than 30 seconds or so.

Problems importing members
Installation and Configuration

We can support this no problem - one of our other projects (Genosis) does exactly this so we'll port that over to the User Accounts module.

Hope this helps!

Approve Users on Sign up
Installation and Configuration

Strumelia:Or is there a more logical place to use such type spammer-exposing questions to pending member applicants? Or are such precautions not even needed on JR? They always have been on Ning, in my experience.

Any site that gets popular is going to deal with spammers on a daily basis - there are no technical solutions that keep out spammers 100%, since very few "spammers" nowadays are bots - MOST are actual people sitting at their computer that either earn like 1 cent for every site they sign up on OR there is a javascript that gets loaded that lets a real user "break" the captcha so they can access something (usually on an "adult" site).

Strumelia:Would this same method also work to make applicant 'quiz questions' which could help us detect a spammer trying to join before we approve them?

Such as instead of "Hometown: Chicago" we could use a longer query like:
"What style of music is your favorite?:" and they could anmswer "Bluegrass" or "I would like to play classical music" etc.. but if they answered "make friends" then it would usefully send up a red flag as a possible spammer.... ?

Yeah - you could use it for that no problem.

Hope this helps!

Events Listing problem
Design and Skin Customization

Sounds like it just needs to be ordered DESC rather than ASC...

How to show different artist name?
Using Jamroom

You could also consider putting these users to a Power User quota and letting them create additional profiles for these other artists (if they are going to be uploading a lot of tracks by different artists).

Got it - yeah since the audio tracks would technically be part of the profile, that would be correct...

I'm not sure why it would be Profile name first - the profile name is not currently included in the audio list title.
