Looking for early Ning migrants
Installation and Configuration

Kos:Alrightee have my 2.0 files copied over to the server. Went to Ning import, set the global config and went to tools. Only checked the first box (to see how it went) and received this error.

"jrComment module inactive - Abandon import"

Does this mean I must purchase the "user comments" module in order to proceed or lost the comments in my archive?

Nothing will be lost from your Archive, it just won't be imported in to the new site if you don't have the corresponding Jamroom module(s) - i.e. Audio, Video, Comments, etc.

Hope this helps!

Restore Theme Breaks Site
Installation and Configuration

There should only be 5 directories inside the skins/jrProJam directory:

contrib
css
img
js
lang

Are you seeing any of the .tpl files being restored? Note that how it works is that it redownloads the jrProJam zip file from here on Jamroom.net and that's what it uses to set itself up.

Make sure you're not out of disk space.

Hope this helps!

Restore Theme Breaks Site
Installation and Configuration

xmla:I go to the marketplace from my site admin, go to the area where I can restore my theme, and when I click the restore button, things break.

It worked in the past but I was working on my site last night and ran into this issue.

I just tested this out on my site here and I'm not seeing any issues - the reload worked no problem. Have you customized the skin using the online Style editor? It could be there's errors there that are causing the issue - a reload doesn't reset any custom CSS, it just reloads the files.

Let me know if that helps.

Thanks!

Chart counts don't work correct
Using Jamroom

SelfmadeClub:Weeks charts:

I have another question to the function of the charts.

If we follow the following example:

The charts should go from Monday 0:00 o'clock till Sunday 23:59 o'clock.
From Sunday on Monday a new week begins, therefore the charts restart.

Is it possible for Jamroom to store charts the weeks firmly?
What do I mean with it?

We use the weeks to charts for a radio broadcasting. If we present on Monday to the customers the charts of the last week, the orders are not any more precisely in such a way as they were freshly updated on Sunday.

Topically we manage in such a way that we write an article and store away in it the weeks charts. The system does not change therefore the weeks Chart orders and these are callable always correctly.

Is Jamroom able such a thing also automatically?

Sorry, if my english is bad. I´ll try my best to explained it to you :)

Stefan

No worries - I think I get what you mean. Do you mean you want to be able to view LAST WEEK's chart (Monday 0:00 o'clock till Sunday 23:59 o'clock) on the following Monday (or basically at any later date?)

Let me know if that is what you mean.

Thanks!

Isleander:How can I find jCore Skin IDs?

I want to add a menu item (i.e. Pages), but I am struggling to discover where I can find the Skin ID.

Those IDs are for language strings - you can modify them in ACP -> Skins -> YourSkin -> Language tab

Hope this helps!

Important questions about Ning "Groups"
Installation and Configuration

gary.moncrieff:I purchased the Ning bundle out of support mainly, but I have to say at this point in time they don't make much sense to me.

For instance imho pages and discussion should be sub sections of a group not of the profile.

Yep - they will be. You purchased the first release of this that actually IS NOT how it needs to work. I'm reworking it right now and I think you'll find it pretty cool even for a non-Ning imported site to use (basically like a "mini site" within a profile).

I'm shooting to have all new versions out by Friday, so hang in there just a little bit longer.

Thanks!

Restore Theme Breaks Site
Installation and Configuration

xmla:When restoring the theme ( jrProJam ) on my site, it empties the projam directory, replaces only a few directories and redirects admin to a blank page - had to re-upload skin files to restore.

Can you let me know what you mean by "restore" the skin?

Thanks!

Chart counts don't work correct
Using Jamroom

SelfmadeClub:To know what i mean, i have installed the system on monday and uploaded the songs yesterday. So the list must be empty. But all Songs are listed for last week.

If there is NO DATA for the start time, then it reverts to the oldest entries in the chart DB - i.e. if you ask for a 7 day chart, but only have data for the last 4 days, it will be a 4 day chart.

Hope this helps!

One all networks Profile vs account
Jamroom Developers

DannyA:The documentation does not make any indication that it would have to be the JR user. You should be able to link the (social) profiles to a jamroom profile as well.

I hope you see the problem with the current implementation: A power user (label) that has multiple profiles (artists) would be forced to post content from all their users feed to a single profile. So you would never be able to post to the social profiles of the artists.

I know you believe this can work at the profile level, but having set this up and being familiar with how it works, it is linked at the user account level for a reason.

Sorry if that won't work for you.
