Code Question 3


Using Jamroom

Nothing in JR is loaded by Java (just an FYI) - Java != Javascript. Jamroom uses PHP and Javascript - no Java is involved... lol

How Do I Modify Code - Featuring by Quota - Template Copying


Using Jamroom

paul:Its really just a case of working efficiently and not scrolling up and down checking what the questions were.
Also, it makes it easier for other users who may have the same issue when they search the forum looking for answers.
It also helps if threads stay 'on topic'. Invariably, if a thread is hi-jacked, the originator is left high and dry!!

Yep - this exactly :)

how do I choose a random quota_id from a set?


Using Jamroom

Just to add that caching is a good thing, and in Jamroom users that are logged in will get their own "version" of that page, and all logged out users will see the same version. Once your site is running the sections should change frequently enough that they look "fresh". What you want to avoid is disabling caching or setting it to a very short time period (say 10 seconds). This will results in a much higher load on your system than is really needed.

Daily Limits


Installation and Configuration

This would be a special case that we've never had to address before - no one in 2 years of Jamroom 5 has ever asked for this. If you have users spamming your system I'd recommend disabling their account.

i.e. if I go into twitter my tweets are not limited - just my 2 cents...

Search Error


Using Jamroom

paul:Found it - There was a jrNingPage item in the jrTags DS with the text 'praise radio schedule' so the 'pra' bit was being found there, and the error was from it trying to get more info on the now non-existent NingPage item.
Have cleaned it up.

Was it the tags module or the search module that was trying to load the jrNingPage DS? We need to get a jrCore_module_is_active() check around that.

Thanks!

2 tiny questions bout new search version


Installation and Configuration

soaringeagle:just updated it 10 minutes ago i always check the change log thats where i saw that it was added
ill try again on both
will it work with just that code snippet or does it need the extra configuration options like youtube


and will it eventualy be added to these other modules?

It already works with other JR modules (audio, video, etc). It uses a special event listener to integrate itself into any module - the only thing that needs to be updated is the template (to add that one call).

soaringeagle:and if u dont add any extra config code does it search all datastore objects

no - the "site wide" search does this - the search on the index templates only searches that TYPE - i.e. on site.com/audio it searches ALL audio, on site.com/profile/audio it searches audio for that profile.

Quote:and u can stop saying "hope this helps' cause it always does (but sometimes leaves a couple more questions unanswered) you guys are so helpful and responsive ..your just awesome

Sorry - I've used that for years and it is habit.

Quote:are u all uk based?

No - I'm north of Seattle, Washington.

2 tiny questions bout new search version


Installation and Configuration

This function can be added to 2 different templates:

modules/Module/templates/index.tpl (site index for a module)
modules/Module/templates/item_index.tpl (profile index for a module)

I'm not aware of any issues with it on either template - make sure you're running the latest version of the Search module.

Hope this helps!

How Do I Modify Code - Featuring by Quota - Template Copying


Using Jamroom

Hi Ken - I can answer your first question - would it possible however to create your other questions as different topics? It becomes very difficult to follow a single forum posts when there are many questions and a lot of back and forth.

#1 - yes - you can simply copy that template in an it will work.

Let me know if that helps.

Thanks!

Problems importing members


Installation and Configuration

White Agency:The entire site should be inaccessible unless logged in. Thats how it is on Ning.

If this is an option that Ning provides (make your entire site private), then the best way for us to handle this would be via a small custom module.

Is that an option Ning offers or something you customized yourself?

Thanks!
