Using Jamroom

calexander:
Thanks for getting back to me. In that case is it possible to have multiple forum instances?

Basically, yes. You are looking at the Jamroom forum in action now so can see its category system.
Forums belong to profiles so if you look at your browser url now, you can see that this forum belongs to profile 'The Jamroom Network'
So for multiple forums, create profiles named after your 'top' category (Trains, Boats, Planes, whatever) and give each of them a forum the same as this one.

Server Password

Jamroom Hosting

Don't think you can.
Why do you want to? Its better for server security long and complex.

Refining what's shown in the Home Page activity timeline

You could add a search parameter to the actions jrCore_list in the template

{jrCore_list module="jrAction" search="action_module NOT IN jrComment,jrFollow" . . . }

JrPolls button to "hide results" and "view results"

Suggestions

Easily done by using the Form Designer to add a checkbox to the Poll create and update forms then modifying the module's item_detail.tpl template to look at that checkbox to decide whether to show the existing votes or not.

JrPolls results

Design and Skin Customization

johnchansa:
Currently,the polls module seems to display results after the poll period has ended.I have seen other poll scripts display running tallies of the votes(in %).Can this be done with jrPolls?

I think it could be done with a custom template as all the 'end date' testing etc. is done with smarty in the templates.
But would not seeing current votes possibly influence new voters?

Please Critique My Site Before I move on further

Design and Skin Customization

Hi John
I like the colours and textures. My only comment is on the footer for each page which looks odd because it's slightly narrower that the main content block. The main and footer blocks could also do with a bit of spacing between them imo.
Cheers

Question about the badges module

Hi John - Badges is actually a @b360 module so maybe post this on his forum -

Do I need to "set nameservers" ?

Jamroom Hosting

This is something you should be able to do. Have they given you a login to manage your domains with them?

Translation in Pro Jam does not work

Design and Skin Customization

I've never created a new language before but have just done it following this guide, creating language 'fr-FR' -

https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/development/541/translate-jamroom-into-another-language

I then edited the fr-FR language in the ProJam language editor (well, a few of them!!), then added this to the ProJam header.tpl template at line 42 -

                        <a href="?set_user_language=es-ES"><img src="{$jamroom_url}/skins/{$_conf.jrCore_active_skin}/img/flags/es.png" alt="ES" title="Spanish"></a>
                        <a href="?set_user_language=en-US"><img src="{$jamroom_url}/skins/{$_conf.jrCore_active_skin}/img/flags/us.png" alt="US" title="English US"></a>
                        <a href="?set_user_language=fr-FR"><img src="{$jamroom_url}/skins/{$_conf.jrCore_active_skin}/img/flags/fr.png" alt="FR" title="French"></a>

The French flag shows and on clicking on it, the language strings in the skin change.

Another tip - Make sure you are running Jamroom in developer mode when doing things like this to disable caching.
