Site Radio And TV


Using Jamroom

Whereas in JR4 stations and channels were specific items, in JR5 onwards they are 'Playlists' so create an admin playlist with either audio or video items and link to that.

Custom Forum Settings


Using Jamroom

Zachary Moonshine:
I have a forum on my site using a profile i created using a quota called forum for nothing but a forum so i can have it linked in my main menu for my members all to use but what if i want to set it so that only my staff quota can create topics but let all members comment?
Not out of the box.
The forum templates could be modified to wrap a quota check around the code that shows the 'new topic and update' buttons so that only your staff quota can see them, but a savvy user might still get to the create form by entering its URL directly. A simple custom module could then listen for that form and if the user is in an invalid quota, show them an appropriate message instead.

Private Notes Default Change?


Using Jamroom

There's no way to do that built into JR. Notifications, by default, go to email and its only when users change their settings do do entries get made on the user datastore (database) so a database query to set this is not easy. You would need a custom script to add a private note setting for all notifications to all users.
Sorry

youtube config


Using Jamroom

Hi Zach - Actually the issue for me was that there was a leading space in the API key which is easy to pick up from the google site when copying the key.
Make sure your entered key has no leading or trailing spaces.

Using Jamroom

I've just gone through the same procedure on my development system and yes I get the same 'Could not connect' message. However, upon creating YT items, all works ok, so suggest you try that whilst we checkout the error message issue.
Thanks

Following Group discussions when not a member of the group


Using Jamroom

Quote: Is it possible to make all comments visible but have no comment entry box? If so, that would be an alternative
You could do this by setting the code at the end of the GroupDiscuss item_detail.tpl template from this
    {if jrGroup_member_has_access($item)}
        {* bring in the item details *}
        {jrCore_item_detail_features module="jrGroupDiscuss" item=$item}
    {/if}
to this
    {if jrGroup_member_has_access($item)}
        {* bring in the item details *}
        {jrCore_item_detail_features module="jrGroupDiscuss" item=$item}
    {else}
        {jrComment_form module="jrGroupDiscuss" profile_id=$_profile_id item_id=$_item_id}
    {/if}
Should I try that out for you?

Following Group discussions when not a member of the group


Using Jamroom

I'm not sure - This may be a bug but the other way around and non-members should see the 'follow' option for discussions on the group page. After all, they do see the feed option there as well.
Is there any reason why non-members shouldn't be able to follow a group discussion? It is public anyway.
Thanks
Pa
