could we search profils with media tags?


Jamroom Developers

You would do a jrCore_list on jrAudio instead, with:

search="audio_tags = POP"

Hope this helps!

Are notifications unique to a profile or an account?


Jamroom Developers

DannyA:Although, if i had a wish list, this would also be linked to the profile. I can see the label only wanting alerts for their profile, and not the artists.

So how would that work if there are 4 User accounts tied to a profile, and User 1 wants notifications but not User 2? It's the same issue as with One All - it's why notifications are user centered, and not profile centered.

Thanks!

media conversion step of import issues


Installation and Configuration

Looks like you are still tied in to our conversion server, as I see almost 30,000 queue audio items waiting for conversion server.

Are you redoing your import? I'd like to cancel these jobs, but want to see what it is you are actually doing.

Thanks!

Looking for early Ning migrants


Installation and Configuration

soaringeagle:profiles lists uses default pic wether the users got a pic or not

Profiles and Users are 2 different things in Jamroom. This is because Jamroom has the ability to have multiple Users on a single profile, and multiple profiles tied to a single user. Now if the user uploads a Profile pic, but no user pic, the profile pic will be used - I don't think it goes the other direction as well, but I can check.

Thanks!

DannyA:Sorry one more question. I user D later signs up, and we link profile D to it, do both users get the notifications?

Yes - User A and D will both get notifications for updates on profile D, while only User A will get notifications for profiles B and C.

Let me know if that helps.

Thanks!

identity crisis (had no better name for this topic)


Installation and Configuration

soaringeagle:oh now i remember why i never did it dont alow paypal wich i prever but not if it means overpaying damn i overpaid on most of them cause of that

We do support PayPal, just not through the Marketplace (which uses Stripe) - if you purchase the module here on Jamroom.net (from the marketplace page) you can use PayPal - it gets added to your account just like purchasing it through the Marketplace - you just then refresh your Marketplace on your Jamroom site and you should see the "purchase" button change to an "install" button.

Hope this helps!

Notes vs Private Notes vs messages...??


Installation and Configuration

I've just looked through a JSON Ning export and don't see any private messages, so I think you're right that those are not exported.

Notes vs Private Notes vs messages...??


Installation and Configuration

Strumelia:I'm a little confused about something.
On Ning networks, there is a feature called "Notes" which is described as "Create new pages of text on your Ning Network, like an FAQ section or an About page.". Personally, I've never used it, though others surely have.

Then I notice in the JR Ning Bundle there is a module included called Ning Notes...which I assume is a module designed to receive the "notes" from Ning networks.

Yes - this is something totally specific to Ning. Honestly I'm not sure why we have a Ning Notes module - I'm guessing Ning Notes would likely "line up" better with Jamroom's "pages" module.

Quote:However... JR also offers a separate module (not in the Ning bundle) called "Private Notes"- described as "Adds Private Notes to your system, allowing users to send Private Notes to admins and followers."

Is there a confusion between the term Notes and Messages ? I see "Private Notes" as being private messaging system between all the members of my JR site, right? OR is there a private messaging system already included in my JR Core already?

No - Private Notes is the only messaging system between users that we have for Jamroom.

Quote:I have been assuming that none of the private messages in member inboxes on my Ning network are going to import over the JR...correct? (I can kinda understand that, as a privacy issue).

I'm not sure about this - Paul might know.

Quote: BUT do I need to buy the Private Notes module in order to have a private messaging system on my JR site?

Yes...

Quote:OR is it in the Core already somewhere? Or..are the JR Team thinking that the "Notes" in Ning were actually private messages..?

Sorry I hope I've explained this enough not to simply confuse things for even more. =8-*

It's not part of the Jamroom Core - it's the "Private Notes" add on module that you'd want to add to your site if you want private messaging support for user to user..

Hope this helps!

Installation and Configuration

Kos:Brian, yes I was receiving the same error message within seconds for all imports but at Ning, we tend to have comments on just about every page so I can see why that was a red flag.

It's going to be very unnerving for Creators to come and 'test the waters' here unless ya'll roll out a 14 day free trial with all (basic) modules included. Blog, forum, photo, video, comments.

They'll never be able to test layouts and get a feel for design possibilities w/o them.....much less import. Is this (14day trial) something you have planned?

This is what Paul has done for everyone who he has worked with so far - for those that want to attempt it on their own we don't currently have any way to offer "free trials" on any modules. Definitely something we can look into though.

Thanks!

Jamroom Developers

DannyA:What if user a, a power user, creates profiles b,c, and d.

And in the notification settings, we have elected to be notified when we have a new follower.

Artist profile D gets a new follower. (note there is no other user to manage profile d). Does user a get a notification of user D's new follower?

Yep.
