Confusing Page Titles

Installation and Configuration

I often have more than one tab open and when two or more of (different) pages are titled "Home" it can get confusing. IMO, the only page that should have the title "Home" is the actual Home page.

How and where the page name gets assigned does not appear to be consistent.

1) Page titles Search results page and sub-pages. The page title is NOT set either in language string id=2 or by the module URL.

2) Page title Groups. Changing the module URL changes the page name.

3) Page title Forums. The page title is set in language string id=36, which is also used as the text for the left-most tab.

4) Page title Events. Changing the module URL changes the page name.

5) Page title Private Notes. The page title is set in language string id=2 (and the "home" page is for some reason at .../note/notes not .../notes).

I don't have audio on my site. What other flash objects are there? Likes? Ratings?

Just curious.

We are now off-topic. Should I close this one as the basic issue has been resolved and start up the search question in a new topic so others who are interested can follow along?

GROUP search to include group discussions code...?

Installation and Configuration

Strumelia -

When you do a site-wide search you do get group discussions returned when discuss_description is added. You should be able to modify the search results page to put discussions in the top-right position and push images down, making them much more obvious.

You can also modify the way the results are displayed to include the name of the group. T

SO - the code is already there to do what you want, it's just not accessible in the way you want it to be, you'd like a search on the Groups "home" page that just returns results from Groups.

What I want to do, when I search on the string "landen" which just happens to be a user name, is to see where the string Landen appears.

I find a profile (or account) with that string in it.
I find a single group discussion created by Landen Zernickow.

What I did not find was the 33 blog posts she created.

I looked at the Discussion and "Landen" is in the body of the discussion as well as in the created_by field. However in the blogs, "Landen" is only in the created_by field.

What I WANT to be able to do here is to show EVERYTHING Landen has created (paged by 10, which I have set).

HOWEVER, in looking at the DataStore Browser for the Profile Blog module I don't see a creator name. So I can't add that db field to Search because it does not exist.

Is this possible to do?

Home Page Anomalies: Latest Forum Posts AND Newest Members not updating

Installation and Configuration

Latest Forum Posts
For some reason, the Latest Forum Posts content block is only reflecting changes I am making. This was working on Sunday and stopped working at some point Sunday evening, probably.


Newest Profiles

Since the @FBM-srl profile was created (this is a second profile in an account in a new quota to test the ability to share profiles among members) there have been at least two new member signups that I have approved that don't show up on this list.

I don't know that they are related but the visible behavior (not updating properly).

The only changes I was making to the site on Sunday evening (as I was watching the Super Bowl being streamed) was to go through every quota and make sure that the permissions were consistent across all the quotas.

If that helps narrow down the problem.

They did delete the blog post.

Given the other problems I have been having with the timeline feed I had to ask if these were related in any way.

Creating a sandbox copy of current site - without images - best way

Installation and Configuration

More in-depth step-by-step

1) Do a clean JR install.

2) Copy over all of the files from the current install into the folder of the new install.
This is not going to be fun using cPanel - otherwise FTP down then up (now you see why I don't want to copy the images over)

3) Delete the cache files

4) Use the mySQL admin tools in cPanel to create a copy of the database.

5) Edit config.php to update the paths

No.

The number of items displayed is/should be controlled by a variable in a template (I forget which one - Brian told me where it was but I don't have my changelog open), but that number is displayed in the url

http://www.thechocolatelife.com/search/results/all/1/10?search_string=landen

The number 10 in the above URL says display up to 10 items with an Browse all link. That behavior can be seen here:

Feature request - Finding active ex-Ning members (Still) in default quota

Using Jamroom

I transferred my Ning community to JR.

My default member quota is fairly restrictive and I actively encourage members to change quotas to reflect their basic interest in being a member of the community.

Some members have reported difficulty in seeing the change quota pop-up on their account page. I thought I had got this fixed but I am not entirely sure that this is the case.

One way to do this might be to put the quota name in a tooltip in the mouseover hover on the profile name in the user account browser.
