Export CSV from Data Browser

Using Jamroom

Thanks for your reply @nate. I didn't explain myself clearly enough.
I am aware of the page jumper at the bottom of the page that enables me to increase the number of items shown per page.
What I was asking is whether I can see more fields for each individual item. You can see in the screen shot that each item has a scroll bar against it. There seems to be a maximum of 9 fields (lines) per gallery item and you can scroll to see the rest of the fields for that item. I'd like to show more lines per item, (not more items per page).

Export CSV from Data Browser

Using Jamroom

I just tested this on a small category of items (Group Mailer), and it does seem to create a CSV of all items in that category, not just the ones in my search results.

So, failing that, I have another question, which is this...
Can I change the amount of data that is shown per item in the Data Browser, i.e. how many fields in the view before I need to scroll?

Hi,
If I do a search for certain items in the database using the Data Browser, and then "Export CSV", can you confirm whether or not that will export only the search results?

Thanks.

Timeline Search

Using Jamroom


That would be so useful!

At some point, the Timeline entry text changed, for when someone add a new item. I'm pretty sure it used to say "x added a new photo to gallery y", but now it just shows the gallery name and some thumbnail images. That would not be searchable even with this proposed enhancement (unless you happen to know the gallery name).
So, it would be really splendid if the Timeline entry included "new{item}" so we could search "new photo" or "new audio" etc.. I imagine that would be a popular facility, because those interesting items tend to get lost amongst a load of Timeline entries for comments that your followed users have made.

Timeline Search

Using Jamroom

@nate Thank you for that explanation and I can see that it's very useful when I am looking at other users' Timelines.

When I am searching my own Timeline, the search applies only to my own Timeline entries, not to any of the entries that are showing for people I follow. Also, the search only applies to the text of the entry and not to the description of the entry.
Those two facts make it quite hard to find entries of interest when looking at one's own Timeline.

My Timeline is full of stuff done by people I follow (see attached) and it's really hard to find anything or even select out my own activities.
It would be extremely useful to be able to search everything that appears in my own Timeline, including the entries that arise from profiles I'm following. Would that be possible? It would be especially useful to search for profile @ names, so I can see what particular individuals have done. Is this something that other Jamroom users might like?

Timeline Search

Using Jamroom

The search function on the Timeline doesn't seem to work as I imagine it should, so either there is a problem on my site or most likely I haven't understood it.
Can anyone direct me to where this feature is explained, please?

Are the search terms applied only to Timeline entries belonging to the owner of the Timeline?
Is the whole timeline entry text searched?

Our users do a lot of following of various friends, and it's hard to see what's going on in the Timeline with so many entries from various followed members. Mostly it would be interesting to see when someone followed has uploaded images, videos etc., but I can't see a way of searching for that.
I'm pretty sure the Timeline entry used to say "x has uploaded a new photo", but now it only gives the gallery name and thumbnails of some images in it. I'd have liked to search "new photo", for example.

It would also be nice just to search for all entries of a particular profile "@-name", but that doesn't return any results.

Embedding images - "Previously uploaded" list

Using Jamroom

Thanks for your quick response Paul.
On the Datastore browser, it's not really possible to see what the images are so it would be great if the image owners were able to delete them.
I had assumed that the images on the "previously uploaded" list were only links to the images embedded in comments. As the list includes aborted embeds, are they copies of images that have been uploaded? If they are copies, then we'd want to get rid of them after a period of time. We have 30,000!

Embedding images - "Previously uploaded" list

Using Jamroom

When embedding an image, the selection pop-up includes thumbnails of "previously uploaded images".

A user has asked me how he can delete images from that list, and I know that's not possible. But it got me wondering where and how long these "previously uploaded images" are stored.
Quite often, there are aborted uploads into a comment and therefore the images are not actually present anywhere else on the site. Is it possible to remove those image files?

Updating image tags

Using Jamroom

In order to get the tag disassociated from existing, incorrectly tagged images, I have to add the deleted tag again and delete it for a second time. Not a problem, but I'm just mentioning it for others who might notice the same issue.

Thank you very much for fixing this so quickly.
