Latest Ning Import module released.


Installation and Configuration

Strumelia -

Good question.

Paul - Where would this new forum appear? As its own Group?

Will it keep its sub-categories? I would like to elevate it to appear in the top menu and I know I can do this in the forums config by specifying an explicit URL.

Installation and Configuration

I thought it was a new feature. BTW, there may be a bug in the sort ordering when threading is enabled.

I mentioned it to Paul here:
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/forum/ning-to-jamroom/22423/profile-page-change-sort-order-of-comments

Enabling threading appears to invert the sort order, displaying oldest comments first when order by Newest is selected.

Renamed Gallery on a member Profile - now have two galleries


Installation and Configuration

Limits? Where we're going we don't need no stinking limits!

I only have about 26,000 image files in the photos directory of my computer. Just shy of 124GB. I would reach the limits of my Arvixe "unlimited" hosting account well before I reached the limit of the new bulk rename function. Not to mention testing the limits of my patience given the upload speeds I have available to me.

25k? I would have thought some nice binary number - 16k, 32k, or something like that.

Profile comment wall. Did you install the user comments module update? I did. Might be in there.

Latest Ning Import module released.


Installation and Configuration

Okay. I know it's getting late. But if this is an issue that can only be fixed doing a re-import ...

That's me. Wanting features. Always on the bleeding edge. Speaking of updating the import module. Did you find the issue with the missing discussions from Victor K I sent you by email? Maybe a re-import will restore them?

I was thinking exactly the same thing while replying to @jamesh in another thread.

New here, hello everyone!


Installation and Configuration

jamesh:Thanks @claygordon I'm looking forward to it and will definitely take you up on your offer! I'm excited about the possibilities.

What's really impressive is that I've identified a couple of things that the JR team decided were bugs over the course of the last four days, and several of them have already been fixed and I have uploaded module updates via the Marketplace/System Updates method today that fixed those issues.

Found some more today that affected the way content was presented that I could not override in a template. One was in a piece of code that might not have been dusted off and looked at in years. I expect to see fixes to those in the next 72 hours at worst.

It's one of the things I am liking most about working in JR - that willingness to listen and responsiveness. The only places where I am unhappy is the quality of the data Ning exports. Not much you can do if the output is corrupted. GIGO. But Paul and Brian and the team have done remarkable things to overcome some of the most outrageous offenses found in the JSON files.

Feature Request - Drag and Drop rearrangement of Forum categories


Installation and Configuration

Yup. Towers of Hanoi if I was playing in a browser and all the logic was server-side and the round trip hop was a couple of thousands of milliseconds in each direction.

No hurry on this, of course, but if I decide to reimport my forums then I have a bunch of re-ordering to do in short order.
