Restore Theme Breaks Site


Installation and Configuration

So when you restore, you said it creates 7 directories - can you tell me the names of the directories?

Thanks!

Sending out Invites with "Strong Password" enabled...


Using Jamroom

It shouldn't reject them since that must be their password - when they go to change it they will have to meet your password policy.

Hope this helps!

Sending out Invites with "Strong Password" enabled...

Not sure if this would be called a "comedy of errors" :)

The Strong password module does NOTHING for passwords that are created by you (or a module) - it simply enforces a password policy for NEW USERS who are signing up.

I have no idea how your Ning user's password were set or created - is that something the Ning import module does?

Thanks!

confusion


Using Jamroom

I just tested it here and it's working for me in Elastic:

- Go into the ACP -> Skins -> Yourskin -> Templates and modify the header.tpl file.

Change this:
{jrCore_image image="logo.png" width="191" height="44" class="jlogo" alt=$_conf.jrCore_system_name custom="logo"}
to this:
{jrCore_image image="logo.png" width="300" height="60" class="jlogo" alt=$_conf.jrCore_system_name custom="logo"}

You can set the "width" and "height" to whatever pixels you want. Save it.

Click on "cancel" and put a checkmark in the "active" checkbox next to the header.tpl file, scroll down and save, then refresh your screen.

Note that by default template edits are not "active" until you activate them,

Hope this helps!

my list of things ning migrators will mkiss


Installation and Configuration

soaringeagle:i added the new ning itemns but a question
when a ning ski8ns upgraded
that doesnt upgrade the cloned skins does it

im just wondering if i then have to peicve it back together ina fresh clone ofthe new version of the skin

No - it just upgrades the NingJa skin (jrNingJa). Note that Jamroom has some tools to help you out here - go into your cloned skin -> templates and you can use the "Compare" button to compare your template against the updated NingJa templates and see the differences.

Hope this helps!

Using Jamroom

Kos:I'm having a hard time locating where I can enlarge my logo size. The ones I have uploaded all get shrunk down. I adjusted the header itself but am stuck on Class=jlogo to increase to height: 75px; width: 500px; Have looked in every place beneath the "style" options. Did a forum search for jlogo and came up empty. Where is it located?

What skin are you using?

Thanks!

Featuring - can be better than Ning


Installation and Configuration

Ken_Rich:Hi Brian, that's helpful, but does that cause it to load a new 4 every page load?

Also, what causes the initial view in those 4 spots, when the page loads but before a button is clicked?

I found I could remove everything except for songs (for example) from the pre-existing code, put it on the songs page, and still before the button was clicked it would show artists. Then after the button was clicked the song covers would show.

I spent hours at it, but couldn't find out why. I thought perhaps I needed to duplicate a new version of the Java initialize code with a different name and different url in this line, depending on the page.

jrLoad('#sm',core_system_url +'/index_artists');

However, my copied java code wouldn't run and actually prevented the old one from running!!!

This stuff is way out of my league. I'm changing codes by guesswork, and running experiments on a live network.

Instead I should be writing FAQ's and answering questions, to make the transition smooth for my members.

I feel a professional coder should tackle this and make it available as a market place item, or a skin upgrade.

I keep forgetting you are using Nova, which loads things differently than any of our other skins (it loads things via AJAX) so I'd need to defer to Douglas on this one. Make sure and post to the main JR forum and he can help out.

Thanks!

media conversion step of import issues


Installation and Configuration

soaringeagle:in cloud theres 3 modules the 1st and 3rd i was able to disable the middle 1 causes a blank white page
theres an error and wont load

Make sure you update to the latest Core (5.2.14) - older versions of the Core would not redirect properly if the module had a "locked" module URL.

Let me know if that helps.

Thanks!
