Forums no longer accessible – being logged out?

Using Jamroom

When I change the URL to go to the home page I see that I am logged in - but the Forums are not visible.

I did not change the base URL – everything was working properly yesterday and until I made the quota change.

This is the ACP view and what happens when I click the Forums tab in the nav.

I was updating quota permissions to allow non-admin quotas to use the forums and added a solution to a post in one of the forums. Now When I click on the forums tab in the nav from the ACP I get logged out.

https://archive.thechocolatelife.com/community/forums nothing has changed about the link

Even so – the forums should be visible. They are also missing on the home page in the section reserved for the forums.

I reset the caches (but not the PHP opcache).

Curious to know what might have changed.

Importing members from Ghost

Paul:

Not wanting to receive email is a feature in Ghost. As an admin, I can do this as well. I will remove all entries that are flagged to not deliver before uploading.

When I know someone has more than one account (each account is linked to a unique email address, like me) I will dedupe beforehand. Most of these have one of the accounts listed as do not mail.

I will include the date/time data I have.

As for the CSV file. I will email it to you directly rather than attaching it here - to your m***or.net account?

Thanks for this mapping.

1) Will clone an existing quota and use that ID#
2) There are about 1950 names in the database. I will need to do some purging before the import.

• An unknown number are already in the existing Jamroom database. (Some were exported from Jamroom into Maven and then from exported from Maven into Ghost.)
• Some of them are flagged as not wanting to receive email for one reason or another
• Some are flagged as being spammers
• Some people (like me) have multiple accounts

3) Created at entries look like "2020-12-03T00:04:39.000Z"
4) Does the file to be imported need the header row? With all the columns in the same order?

Just a note: here is what a Ghost "id" looks like:

I was having some SFTP access issues but was able to finally download the sample_members.csv file from
.../modules/jrExporter/plugins/CSV/samples

Following are the column headings from that file. I don’t know what some of them mean and which are required to have something in them. I can see how to do some of the mapping.

at
user_name
user_email
_profile_export_id
_user_export_id
_profile_created
_profile_updated
_user_created
_user_updated
profile_quota_id
profile_private
user_password
_profile_file.image
_user_file.image

Here are the columns in the Ghost export:

id
email
name
note
subscribed_to_emails
complimentary_plan
stripe_customer_id
created_at
deleted_at
labels
tiers

I am not sure I know how to clone a quota but I was planning on creating a new quota. If I can clone an existing quota with all its attributes – that would be great. I searched the documentation but found no reference to that capability.

I checked and jrNewsletter does allow me to send to specified quotas.

I will be happy to send you a test CSV for you to run.

Paul:

Thanks.

I have installed both modules and will FTP to my site to find the sample .CSV file.

I want to confirm:

1) the importer module will dedupe email addresses already in the database
2) whether or not the imported members will be notified by email or if that is a manual process for me
