user_jrPage_item_count
Using Jamroom

hammondegs:I have done both methods.
3 for the site
4 for the admin profile

The admin currently shows 4 pages because I made it that way with SQL.
It hasn't done a page tally by itself since 2 or 3 updates ago.

OK I can check it out and see if I can spot an issue.

Thanks!

Images
Genosis

lisa:Hello! So, I had a chance to play today. I didn't want to merge two trees (a research tree & the default tree) so I made a gedcom of the research tree and uploaded it into the default tree so I still had the people in the research tree. Though I clicked images to be part of the gedcom, in the default tree the images did not show up, just links. I deleted the research tree, uploaded a new gedcom, and tried the same thing again. Same result. What did I do wrong? :-) ~ Lisa

Did you upload the images from the GEDCOM into the Tree Tools -> Import Media Archive? That's the only way to get images from a GEDCOM import into the tree.

Hope this helps!

Quotas
Genosis

lisa:Out of curiosity, for what reason would I want to set a quota? Or is that just part of how Genosis works? ~ Lisa

You can pretty much ignore Quotas in Genosis - their a core part of Jamroom, but really aren't used in Genosis. You can think of a Quota as a "profile group" - i.e. you can apply different configurations to different quotas. So for example, let's say you wanted to only have blogs on a specific set of your profiles - you would create a "blog" quota and move the profiles you want to have the blog on into that NEW quota. Then, you would go into the ACP -> Profile Blogs -> Quota Config and turn the blog OFF for all quotas EXCEPT the new quota you created.

Let me know if that makes sense ;)

Creating User Accounts vs User Profiles
Genosis

lisa:Hello! I have managed to confuse myself with the difference between a user account and a user profile, if there is one!

I want to invite "Joe Smith" to add documents to our tree. We both share "Joseph Smith" as a common ancestor, but we descend from different children of "Joseph Smith" so "Joe" is going to fill in his information that I don't have, and I am going to fill in my information that he doesn't have. WHEW. What is the best way to do this? I know you explained it to me, but I managed to trip myself up. LOL! Thanks - Lisa

You would create a new PROFILE called "Joe Smith". If you don't know the parents, then just create the user then UNLINK the profile from the parents (click on the small x in the relationships in the left side of the profile).

Next, create the User Account (from the admin drop down menu) and create their User account, and link it with the Joe Smith profile you created.

Let me know if that helps.

Thanks!

Right on - thank you for sharing!

I'm getting a redirect error when trying to view some of the images - double check you've enabled the Gallery module.

Hope this helps!

Time map
Genosis

james.perrine:I've uploaded my gedcom and media. Everything looks good except I don't see an option to view the time map. Do I turn that on somewhere?

The Time Map is not quite ready to go yet - I'm finishing up some work on it and will have it in the Marketplace shortly. Let me know if you see any issues with it on my family tree site - if you do, let me know what browser you're using.

Thanks!

user_jrPage_item_count
Using Jamroom

Actually just going back to the code on this, there are user counts so you can see how many items of a certain type that user has created.

When you are creating the pages as the admin user, are you creating those pages for the admin's profile or for the site? If you're creating them for the site, then the count will not be in the admin's profile.

Hope this helps!

Timeline showing json
Using Jamroom

SteveX:It was my mistake - I had commented out jrPoll_db_get_item_listener and jrPoll_db_search_items_listener but they were still being registered in the init function.

No errors were written to the log, just json appearing in the timeline.

Uncomment those functions and timeline is back to normal :)

Glad to hear it - thanks!

Embedding Youtube video
Design and Skin Customization

nduguseliphaz:@brian this should be a friendly forum stop assuming things and making @douglas look like he can't help me and he was trying to help me before u showed up in this topic. I nearly got the solution So what is my mistake? What have I done wrong??? @douglas asked for my login details on this topic then u write the test above. I dont like how you assist me thanks to @douglas @paul and @micheal for always helping me find a Solution.

very pissed though on this topic

I apologize - I'm definitely not trying to make anyone mad, just want to be sure you know that our primary support is offered here through the Support Forum - not by sending email to our team members. That's all.

So it looks like we've answered this issue - you'll need to have the YouTube module installed if you want to be able to embed YouTube in your Jamroom - this is because all the "logic" to handle YouTube embedding is located in the YouTube module.

Hope this helps!
