Account Name / Member Name confusion (or is it just me?)

Installation and Configuration

If you take a close look, you'll see that the forum posts are all posted by ChocLifeRoot whereas the timeline is @claygordon.

I changed the name from ChocLifeRoot to Clay Gordon but the URLs have not updated so I get a 404 every time I click on @ChocLifeRoot.

I set the name ChocLifeRoot just to have something when I created the account. What will it take to get it updated?

Members changing quotas on claiming accounts

Installation and Configuration

There is a closed discussion here:

https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/forum/ning-to-jamroom/17189/how-do-members-switch-quotas

Is it because of the fact that I am an admin that I don't see a Subscription tab where I could (theoretically but I never would because it would be a disaster) change my Quota? I am getting ready to send a broadcast email to all members via Ning informing them of the change over and I want to include that step in the email.

The default (unassigned) Quota has virtually no module permissions. I want people to have an incentive to change their Quota.

OR - is the ability to select a Quota on the account claim form?

Ning Memo questions - why? and rename URL?

Installation and Configuration

Gotcha. Don't want to introduce gotchas. Nossir I don't.

Private Notes question

Installation and Configuration

Yes, it is. Thanks.

When I send a note to a recipient (admins can send notes to people they are not following) do I need the @ in front of the membername? Or just the membername?

Ning Memo questions - why? and rename URL?

Installation and Configuration

Thanks.

What I think I may do, for consistency, is rename every instance of Memo to Notes in the Language editor and then change the URL to Notes.

I am enforcing a 140 character limit for Timeline posts and Blogs can be any length with an image in them. So Note are a happy middle ground. If kept private (not posted to the timeline) they can be used as notes to self, not the community.

Private Notes question

Installation and Configuration

I have:

purchased and installed the module
activated it
set the quota configs for it

And it's not showing up anywhere that I can see. I would have expected it to show up on my profile in the menu bar or in the Followers page in my profile somewhere. Does this need to manually be added (e.g., to the top nav)?

Ning Memo questions - why? and rename URL?

Installation and Configuration

This was never a feature of Ning I ever activated for my community, and it occupies a place somewhere between a Timeline post and a Blog post so I am sort of so-so about it.

Any reason why I shouldn't rename the URL (on the info page for the module from "ningmemo" to just "memo"? I want to remove all the Ning-ness I can from my JR community.

I am happy to offer up my site as a guinea pig for the process!

Two quick things on my home page now -

How to get rid of the little calendar icons on the Events block and where did the background color go in my Latest Forum Discussions block?

Brian -

I think that some of the issue is that I have been working with Paul and there is stuff that is hard-coded into the templates that could be done in the CSS. That's why some CSS changes don't "take".
