handeling diferent url structures and the resultant "page not found' issues


Installation and Configuration

Yeah I've got your Sitemap suggestions down here - I don't think any of it will be an issue - even real time updating. Jamroom has a really cool "queue system" so we don't have to worry about getting overloaded with thousands of actions - we can still just process it one time in an offline listener, so it should not be an issue.

Hope this helps!

tinymce in comments and chat module development questions


Using Jamroom

Yeah we use TinyMCE 4 in Jamroom:

http://www.tinymce.com/

so you'll have full access to the CSS.

Using Jamroom

sweet:@paul this is the page where i'm trying to download free modules n being sent to my profile page after clicking download.

www.jamroom.net/download/modules/sort_by=cat_asc

would it have anything to do with not having "https://" ?

Make sure you are on https: - I just tried here and it is working for me.

Hope this helps!

my list of things ning migrators will mkiss


Installation and Configuration

Thanks for posting this - this is great info. You guys are here really early in this process, so you're seeing the rough edges - this type of feedback is awesome.

I can't say we will have all this stuff done and fixed up immediately, but we're always working to make things better and over the next few months you'll see more updates and modules specifically designed to replicate what you had at Ning.

Some of this too might involve doing things a slightly different way to arrive at the same result - we want to make sure anything we do is intuitive and easy to work with, and so if we can find an area where we can improve or modify an existing Jamroom module, then that is great.

And while it is a little bit early, one thing that is really important to me isn't so much how we replicate existing Ning functionality (which is important of course) but what can we do in Jamroom to make your site better then it ever was on Ning? What are some things about Ning that has frustrated you or features you wished it had that were never delivered?

Our goal here is not just migrate you over to Jamroom but make you enthusiastic Jamroom users - we want you to tell all your friends about how awesome Jamroom is, and in order to do that we need to make you 110% happy with your site. I know that won't happen right now, but over the next few months I know we can deliver that.

Thanks!

handeling diferent url structures and the resultant "page not found' issues


Installation and Configuration

soaringeagle:since ning and jr will use a very diferent url structure how will the search trafic results be handled

will all search results generate a 404 not found
or will there be a graceful way of doing a i think its 301 permenent redirrection from the original url wich should then update the search engine results

The search results will likely generate a 404 - I can't think of any way of "automatically" handling the Ning search and URL structure within Jamroom without setting up a custom module to watch for those URLs (which is doable).

I will add it down on the TODO to check out when we can.

Thanks!

An 'Heads Up'


Installation and Configuration

Just a followup that Douglas and I will be online this week (I'll be back in the office full time starting Tuesday) so we will absolutely do our best to help out everyone we can.

Once Paul is back things should move pretty well - right now all of you "early adopters" are working through things that in the next month we will have fully "smoothed out" with a custom Ning Skin, better Ning-related options in many of our modules, etc.

I just want to say I appreciate everyone's patience - many of you are seeing the rough edges, and our goal is to have everything working really well - we'll get there but it's just going to take a little bit more time, but thank you for all your feedback and patience while we work towards the goal.

Thanks!

One all networks Profile vs account


Jamroom Developers

DannyA:I don't believe that to be correct simply because you can use oneall to post your feed to your social networks even if you did not use oneall to create your account or log in.

That's correct, but you cannot post anything until you go into your "networks" section and link your account up with OneAll, which in effect sets things up exactly as if you had used your account to log in. So your account must be linked through OneAll for anything to work.

Hope this helps!

NO PAGE BREAK


Design and Skin Customization

mark:I would like to display all posts on the same page without a break just like on twitter. This is my code, what do I need to mod?


{jrCore_lang skin="n8Maestro3" id="135" default="Feed"}
{jrCore_list module="jrAction" order_by="_created numerical_desc"}


You could add a really high limit - i.e.:

{jrCore_list module="jrAction" order_by="_created numerical_desc" limit=500}

But if you're looking for a "continuous scroll" type setup, that's not something supported in Jamroom at this time - you'd have to do something custom.

Hope this helps!

Menus?


Using Jamroom

The Lucid skin is designed around being a blogging community, so does not have those module sections that are of interest to users coming from Ning. If you wanted to, you can add them in, or if you're willing to hold out for just a little bit longer we are almost done with our "NingJa" custom skin that has been designed specifically for Ning migrations - I think you'll find it setup much closer to what you want. Watch the Ning To Jamroo profile and we'll be releasing that shortly.

Hope this helps!
