What's the difference?

Design and Skin Customization

Photo Albums are like all other Jamroom items so by default 'public' or controlled by the profile privacy settings. You could edit the photo album templates to make them visible to only the profile owner.

Really need help with changing domains for my JR

Installation and Configuration

You don't need to change anything in the database, and the system name in the Core setting doesn,'t do anything.
You need to change the config.php file. Follow this document -

Hi Charles - You can easily do what you describe with JR5.
Yes - all Profiles need a User and all Users need a Profile but in both cases the needed Profiles and Users can be one, or many!!
So as site admin you have a linked admin profile and admin user. As admin, goto the User Profiles tools tab and select Create Profile. Enter profile name and select its quota, then start typing your admin user name in the user box. It'll popup, so select it and hit the submit button. You have now created another profile but owned by user 'admin.
Repeat the above until you have created your 200 artist profiles, all owned by, and controlled by you (admin).
Hope that makes sense.

Think 'PlayLists' (for that is what the PhotoAlbum module is based on!!).
As a visitor or user wanders around your site looking a uploaded images, if he sees one he likes, there will be a hover-over button that if he clicks on, will add that album to an album of his choice. Then, at a later date, from his profile he can view his Photo Albums and enjoy the images again.

Like button retries

Installation and Configuration

The Like button doesn't have any 'wait' timeouts. Are you refering to the ratings?

To be honest I had the same confusion in the early days about User Profiles and User Accounts, but being as no one else has brought it up in the three and a half years of JR5 I assumed it was just me !!! The fact the User Profiles are in the Profile section and User Accounts are in the Users sections resolved it for me

The Profile Owner field on the Create Profile page is a 'Live Search' field in that it will prompt you with users that match what you have typed so far. So if your username is 'admin' and you start typing 'a' you'll get a little popup with 'admin' (along with 'adam', 'alf', 'arthur' etc. (should they exist)). You typed in 'Ham Hock Records' and that user doesn't exist, hence the error, so yes, create Ham Hock Records as a user first.
Agree that the error is confusing. Its because the field is actually passing the numeric 'user ID'. We'll check that out.

Thanks

Is this in the Profile Tweaks module?
