"The problem is that smarty uses this format {something} so you need to put a space between { and the first letter."

Wow that's a good little tip - I will try and remember that!

Something To consider when leaving Ning

Ning To Jamroom

Curtis, no I have a whole new domain name. My ning site always kept the ning part of its URL
as for example strumstrum.ning.com. Then I built a JR site on arvixe and used a whole new domain say for example strumelia.com. Then I transferred that same site to the JR server from arvixe...but I had to first secure the domain back from arvixe (they didn't make it difficult or expensive) and put it under my own name and register it myself. Then I pointed the domain to the JR server instead of the arvixe server.
Because ning doesn't give you access to the server, but arvixe and JR do...it's more difficult with ning.
My arvixe account is about to expire soon, but since i've already pointed the domain to the JR site, when i go to strumelia.com I see my JR site, NOT the old arvixe site. However, since my account is still paid up, I can still access my arvixe CP and server. I went in there and deleted everything the other day. I wouldn't be able to access my arvixe CP if my account were not still being paid.

Not sure if I answered what you neeeded to know?
Yes my JR site has a whole diff domain name, a new one that's totally diff from my ning site.

Hello Curtis
Yes I understand Curtis. That happened when I moved my site from arvixe server to JR server...using the same domain.
That's because you kept the same domain, right? My case is a bit diff I guess cause I'm using a new domain than my ning site.
But still...the lesson here is to keep your hand on your wallet when Ning is sniffing around your accounts! Think I'll put a mousetrap in my pocket too.

OMG Ning just S.U.X.

Good advice Curtis, thanks.

If you have been watching their FB page, it's been LOADED with people unfairly having their credit cards or debit cards charged in totally outrageous ways like Paul detailed. It's a wonder Ning has not been shut down for illegal practices yet.
I'm real glad I set up my ning to get billed through my Paypal and that I never gave them my credit card info or bank info. Ning has actually been helping themselves to people's bank accounts without asking!

Don't forget to also CANCEL your (free) Sandbox 3.0 sites if you have any.

I'll actually be shutting my ning down only after my JR site is live and doing fine for a month or two....just in case I need to get or see anything after the fact.

Profile question to Groups

Using Jamroom

Perhaps you already know this, but good to know that each profile can only belong to one quota at a time, not multiple quotas.

How to add a contact link to the profile?

Installation and Configuration

Maybe it's my own fault somehow, but for me your video contained only a static image and no audio. Hmmm, maybe you used the Super Stealth Voice Software that only reveals a voice in high frequency bat sonar range?

Design and Skin Customization


I asked about this a couple months ago- I see where/how we can EDIT the existing entries in our language files for each module and skin...such as change the ID language word "profiles" to "members", or change "Images" to "Photos" etc. But I still don't see how we can ADD a NEW word or term and corresponding ID number to any of our language files, at least through our ACP. Is this possible, and how?

Use Smarty function to make installation simpler

Profile Badges


Has this been done? I'm not really anxious to insert a block of code into my template that I'd have to skim over all the time when updating templates. I'd sure rather insert just a simple line of code, which would be way easier to spot and skip when comparing templates. Thanks

Events approval not working?

Ning To Jamroom

Well, it's there for me. Tested it with two different regular member profiles now, did refreshes, logged out, in, and out as various people- the two events are right there showing in all their glory. And neither have been approved yet. "Approve event on create" is checked for regular member quota.

Events approval not working?

Ning To Jamroom

I logged out, did a browser hard refresh... but I'm still seeing the event in the Events main page list module/panel, and also it's still there in the Actvity feed/timeline.
