Community Playlist Players Disappeared After Update
Design and Skin Customization

Ken_Rich:I found it. No problem with updates only with "noob factor".

I had changed the playlist titles (just before the updates) and didn't realize they need to match what's in the skin config file. My bad (again).

Glad to see you got it fixed ;)

Thanks!

Community Playlist Players Disappeared After Update
Design and Skin Customization

Ken_Rich:I just installed several "System Updates" through the marketplace module and after them my Community Players on the frontpage of the Nova Skin disappeared.

Is anyone else experiencing that issue, or is it a "co-inky-dink" that they disappeared right after the updates?

I've been "tweaking" the skin so I'm not sure if it's something unrelated I've done, or the updates, but the timing is very suspicious.

The Core 5.2.10 update had quite a number of updates and bug fixes in it, so it could something in the update caused and issue - do you have a link you can post to see the page the problem is on?

Thanks!

Installing the Proxima Bundle
Installation and Configuration

Just an update that I've taken the "privacy" off of the Proxima profile so everyone should be able to see this.

If you're interested in using Proxima, make sure you've got a JR5 install and it's as easy as installing the Proxima bundle from the JR5 Marketplace. I would highly recommend using the bundle "Proxima Alpha" skin that is included with the bundle - it has been completely setup to be an awesome "backend" to a mobile app - not only running all API functions, but also giving you a website to sell your app from.

I know there are very few sites using Proxima at this time, but if you have any feedback or questions, please feel free to post here.

Thanks!

Proxima Alpha
Installation and Configuration

gcuezy:Is it still considered alpha? I am probably going to start tinkering with it right away and (hopefully) could possibly launch something in a few months... do you think it's ready?

Yeah - it's ready. It's not really "alpha" but more of "rc" type release at this point - everything should for the most part be working and working well.

Hope this helps!

Any plans for a RESTful JSON API?
Suggestions

gcuezy:Yeah I think what I envision would be using the jamroom install as my 'admin' then use the API to create a separate HTML or node webapp and a mobile app using an MVVM framework like angular or backbone. I could avoid the smarty and million-template headaches and add in some cool functionality.

I'll try to tinker with it soon. I'll be sure to let you guys know what happens.

I've done quote a bit of Node work, and dinked around with both Angular and Backbone (as well as Ember) and actually find JS based templates to be more of a hassle to get them to do what I want, and end up having to have several slight variations of templates where in JR I could do it with one.

I know it's no the in-thing, but JR's old school server side rendering sure makes debugging easier and often smooth's out browser irregularities.

Do you use an IDE for JS development?

Thanks!

gcuezy:Disclaimer: I haven't tested it yet, haha.

Thanks @brian !

I'd love to get some feedback on it, so let me know if you get a chance to check it out. It's been mostly designed as a backend for mobile apps, but in reality could be used as a backend server for almost any system (since it is all REST API based).

Thanks!
