Itunes


Design and Skin Customization

ikonicdance:which template would you recommend that close simiular to itunes which will allow me to accomplish what we trying to accomplish

good to see you briin we worked with you before and used jamroom since 2004 2005 so its been ten years you were back in Washington back then.

Difficult to recommend any one skin as they all would need custom template work to achieve something like an iTunes clone. Maybe if you like the colour scheme of any one skin, that would be a start as it would then save any CSS work -

Alternatively, take a look at Site Builder. You may be able to build the exact layout you want with that -

Getting 404 In Events Page in Nova Skin


Using Jamroom

Thanks John, I've got that fixed up for the next release of the Nova skins.

If you want to implement it now, open the Nova spotlight_row.tpl template and at line 195, add the line -

{jrCore_module_url module="jrEvent" assign="murl"}

so that the code looks like this -

    {* EVENT SPOTLIGHT ROW *}
{elseif $_params.module == 'jrEvent'}

    {if isset($_items)}
        {jrCore_module_url module="jrEvent" assign="murl"}
        <div class="container">
            {foreach from=$_items item="item"}

Installation and Configuration

If you're just looking for a way to populate a sandbox site, checkout the 'loader mode' option the the developer module global tab.

More weirdness - missing blog post


Installation and Configuration

So you want to be able to show more than 10?
You can add a pagebreak option to the search call in the template. I think you brought that up the other day and we told you how to do it.
Or am I confused again with what you are asking ?

Creating a sandbox copy of current site - without images - best way


Installation and Configuration

The easiest way to do this would be to copy your entire site to a sub-folder, copy the database to another one, edit the /data/config/config.php file accordingly, and delete the contents of the /data/cache folder. You then have a working image of your live site.
Doing that but excluding the gallery items is a bit trickier ;-)

More weirdness - missing blog post


Installation and Configuration

Maybe I'm mis-understanding, but if a search result yielded a member that had 100s of uploaded items and participated in 100s of discussions, you want to see all of them?

Ning Json


Installation and Configuration

davej56:Hello Brian and company! I struggled between Jamroom and Ning. Sorry to say, but buying all the modules I did along with hosting, and I am sorely disappointed so far. Ning offered a lot more options like a forum that everyone could see and use, chat, common blog, etc. You could attach files to your responses. I'm using this for a songwriter collaboration site, and it's a struggle so far. The newest members list on the front page doesn't work. Neither does the newest audio list--it's blank even though I uploaded songs. Oh, and I can't put my audio uploads in order like in Ning. And talk about slow. Sorry to be such a downer about this, but I really am disappointed. I would have liked to simply and privately express my issues to Brian, but I can't even figure out how to contact him. And I'm wondering, since I haven't bought the support, will this even post when I get done writing it. I guess I'll see. Well it posted. And I can update it. Wish I had a forum like this on my site. Maybe I can, if I can figure out how to do it. I know I haven't given this much of a chance yet, but even my whole three users are already having problems using the system. Argh!

Hi Dave
Sorry you are having these issues. Everything you want Jamroom to do that you listed above can be done fairly easily. You just need to understand how Jamroom works a bit more. For instance, Jamroom is 'profile-centric' meaning that 'everything' is owned by a profile. This 'global' forum is, in fact, a regular Jamroom profile forum owned by the profile 'the-jamroom-network' (look at its URL) so all you would need to do is create a profile called 'forum' or 'community', say, and make that your global forum.
Point us to you Jamroom site and let us help you get it how you want it. Post questions here on the forum so all Jamroom users can help, or to our support at support[at]jamroom[dot]net. All support tickets will get answered whether you have paid support or not. The difference is that paid support tickets get priority.
Presumably you are using Arvixe for hosting? Yes, their servers are proving to be pretty slow in reality and not like they were when we tested them and subsequently recommended them as hosts. We are in discussion with them trying to remedy the situated and are also currently making plans for other 'guaranteed' hosting options which will be announced soon.
So please stick with your Jamroom site a bit longer and let us all help. I'm sure that you'll soon understand Jamroom more, and what it can do, just as other Ning migrants have done.
Thanks
paul

Because you a searing for a member name. Unless the member name is included in the blog title (or text?) members' blogs won't show.
