Using Jamroom

If you can let us have your Jamroom admin and FTP logins we could get to the bottom of this a lot quicker.
Email them to support[at]jamroom[dot]net

Privacy for Under 18s


Suggestions

The problem is that in the (nearly) 12 years of Jamroom, this is the first time that a request like this has come up, so don't want to rush into making any Core changes until we're sure that it would benefit more users. That's why I'm trying to think of ways to do this within what JR can do already. Is this for a specific project or are you thinking generally?

The reason I suggested separate quota(s) above is that they have the means to disable user privacy options so that a minor cannot just override the setting. Maybe the custom module could also listen for the profile update form and remove the field if under 18?

Privacy for Under 18s


Suggestions

Add a DoB field to the signup form.
Create a quota with Profile 'Show Privacy Options' unchecked.
Create a custom module to listen for signups and if under 18, put them in the new quota.
The custom module will also listen for the 'daily maintenance' event to check all user ages, moving them to a regular quota when over 18, and removing the parental access.

All the gaining consent and initial account linking would still need to be done by admin, by hand, though.

About using jamroom-4.1.9 - 4.1.9 skin packs and the old flash player modules


Installation and Configuration

So does your JR4 site still exists? (you said it was deleted). Can't import from 4 to 5 without the 4 site !!
All JR5 skins can be customised, the same as the could with JR4, by modifying templates. Can you be more specific about the 'Buy Now' button and '2 more marketplace products'? Show us on the JR4 site (if it exists ;-) )

changing default profile image


Using Jamroom

Well we could look in the archive and set the importer to reject member images of a specific size on the assumption that that would definately be the default image. If you did this those profiles would use the Jamroom default instead, so that could be changed at any time.

changing default profile image


Using Jamroom

I've just changed the NingImport module so when importing members, if their image is less than 10K in size it'll assume this is a default image and not import it, so those members, when imported, will pick up JR's default profile image.
(If your Ning default image is greater than 10K we can fine tune the import script if need be!!)

system update


Using Jamroom

Asil:
I just updated our platform ... had about 18 updates pending. I did them one at a time, by design. Didn't notice there was a way to do them all at once. [I usually will check the module after each update, so wouldn't use a feature like that anyway.]

There's an 'Update All' button on the right above the table. I have seen in the past that when clicking that button, all modules get reported as updated but when done and the page refreshes they are still showing as needing an update. I was trying to establish if this is what @izhmel saw happen.

Privacy for Under 18s


Suggestions

You could have one profile with two associated users (parent and child) though currently admin would need to set each one up.
I dare say something custom could be done to make this more automatic though off the top of my head I can't think how as there would need to be consent and confirmations from the two (or more) parties built into the process.
