Restore Theme Breaks Site


Installation and Configuration

xmla:Should I just remove and replace all files? My mobile site has disappeared for some reason (just black on my iPhone ) and sometimes my newest artists, members, and videos don't load on my homepage.

It's hard to say without knowing what the root cause is. Try this - try "reloading" a non-active skin (say Elastic) and see if you get the same issue - see if we can narrow it down to a specific skin, or if it is happening to all skins.

Hope this helps!

Important questions about Ning "Groups"


Installation and Configuration

Paul and I are working on updating the Ning Importer so it properly sets up discussions in the Profile Groups module OR the Profile forum (if the discussion is NOT part of a group).

One thing that is not clear to me from the Archive data is can "normal" profiles have a profile forum as well or are there only "Group Discussions" and then a "site level" forum? i.e. do we have this:

- site level Forum
- profile level Forum
- profile level group discussions

OR do we just have this:

- site level Forum
- profile level group discussions

Thanks!

Restore Theme Breaks Site


Installation and Configuration

This is really weird though - the fact that you're getting directories created on your file system that are NOT part of our archive (which you can confirm by looking at what you manually downloaded - it's the same file) is very strange.

I would suggest a security audit on your server - it smells a little bit like malware that is adding hidden scripts to any "new" PHP/web files that get written out to the file system.

Unable to login after recent core upgrade


Installation and Configuration

You have a syntax error in one of your templates:

data/cache/jrCore/a8bdfe801513120908f1e41aee14f328.tpl

Try deleting the contents of the data/cache/jrCore table and see if that works - if you get the same, then look inside that file and see what template it is, and fix the if/else imbalance.

Hope this helps!

New - Support Tickets Module


Announcements

The Ticket module already allows you to turn off notifications on a per-user basis (in the user's "notifications" tab) - is it that you don't want them to be able to turn it back on or have control over that?

Thanks!

TinyMCE paragraph formatting


Using Jamroom

SteveX:I don't need the form elements, but classes will be needed for styling, and other attributes for validation.

If you could send me a list of the HTML elements and their attributes that you need, I can check on getting them added to the core support.

Hope this helps!

include a jrCore_list on another site


Using Jamroom

This shouldn't be hard to do - just create a file in your active skin directory called "embed_list.tpl" (or whatever you want to call it) and place a jrCore_list call inside. You can even reference $_post to pull in variables from the URL, then your users could call it like:

yoursite.com/embed_list/mod=jrAudio/order_field=audio_title/order_dir=asc/limit=25

Of course you would use $_post.mod (don't use "module"!), $_post.order_field, etc.

That should get you what you want.

Hope this helps!

yikes multiple problems


Installation and Configuration

soaringeagle:ok i did the groups update thinjg followed the directions disabling but not deleting the modules
and im thoroughly confused and wondering if things went terribly wrong

the forums discussions link in the menus gone .. the very backbone of my site
i see groups 1st 1 i clicked got a not found 2nd 1 i clicked really only looked like a comment wall
whenj i click discussions wich now i see discussions in that box i get a list of discussions stripped of thier categories with no organization

It sounds like you need the Profile Forum module - not Discussion Groups. Discussion Groups only appear WITHIN a group - they are not system-wide forum discussions - that's the Profile Forum (like you are on here). It supports categories, etc.

Quote:ans every one i clicked was not found

That's correct - the module names changed and your skin is probably referencing the old URLs.

Quote:whats more im finding inconsitencies with the background of wrapper on some pages includes the footer on others the footers grey

im going to try to figure out what went wrong

lil pannicky

the forums are what were known for thats our heart and soul
and they need to beeassy to use and categorized
i dont care if they all gert pulled into a profile called dreadlocks forums or whatever
im also not finding our pages now
did i shut off the wrong modules



I've posted this elsewhere, and want to be sure everyone understand how things are laid out:

- Profile Forum - this module is what you want to use for a forum - i.e. what we are typing on right now

- Page Creator - this is used for pages OUTSIDE groups

- Group Discussions - this is for discussions INSIDE a group, and only inside a group.

- Group Pages - this is for pages INSIDE a group, and only inside a group.

Note that the latest NingJa skin is updated to support the proper links.

HOWEVER (and this is important) - right now the Ning Importer does NOT import into the Profile forum, and that will need to be updated when Paul gets back from vacation - you will then at that time need to re-run the import so the discussions get put in to their proper place.

Let me know if that helps.

Thanks!
