Trying out groups...

Installation and Configuration

Hi Tim - Welcome back. I'd forgot about this project of yours!!

Brian's suggestion would work but he's talking about a custom 'Group Image' module. If you then said you also wanted Group Videos/SoundBites/Blogs/Whatever each one of those would need its own custom module. Not impossible, of course, but it would be good to come up with a solution with what Jamroom can currently do 'off the shelf'.

I don't have an answer for this atm but will think about it more. Being from the UK and interested in local history myself, I like what you are trying to do

Locking Videos / Live Videos

Jamroom Developers

A user can set his profile so that only followers can see its content. Would that help?

No plans our end for live video at the moment. Sorry

Using Jamroom

I think this has been fixed. Are you running the latest modules from the marketplace?

Try putting it inside literal smarty tags -
The JR smarty parser might be seeing those curly brackets and trying to parse them.

Installation and Configuration

I've just had a look at your server and just want to be sure with what you are doing.

Your Arvixe server has the domain http://www.thechocolatelife.info and that points to the public_html folder.
Currently, your JR install is in the sub-folder /thechocolatelife which is why you access it at http://www.thechocolatelife.info/thechocolatelife
You want http://thechocolatelife.com to point to your Jamroom install.
Correct?
OK - You already have thechocolatelife.com setup as an add-on domain pointing to the /thechocolatelife folder so yes, set the thechocolatelife.com DNSs to point to your Arvixe server, edit the config file to -
$_conf['jrCore_base_url'] = 'http://www.thechocolatelife.com';
Delete the contents of the /data/cache folder and you should be good to go.

Another thing. As you are going live, please, for the moment, refrain from using the jrNingImport send emails tool. Mass emails sent from Jamroom should trickle out at a low rate so as not to trigger any 'anti-spam' alarms but we have recent found an issue that can cause them to be sent faster than intended, causing Arvixe alarms to be triggered. We will hopefully soon have a fix for that, so please wait for advice here when its ok to use that tool.
Thanks

Share your Performance Check Results

Announcements

I think Strumelia was asking if tests should actually be run when the server is busy.
If so, no. This tool is testing server performance directly so more accurate results are obtained when the server can give 100% of its time, and not have to break off to serve any site visitors.

Any chance the dynamic wall is going to be in the market

Off Topic

Sorry that this module is taking its time. I have been working on it but keep getting distracted by other JR issues and projects.
One issue I am having with it though is trying to make it 'generic' and installable with no, or very few template modifications needed. Ideally, the module needs to be installed and enabled, then it will then listen for any jrAction list calls replacing them with the 'Live Wall' instead.
I will get there - give me time.
Thanks

Everything on this thread is (easily) doable by using the form designer and tweaking templates.
When JR5 was being developed it was our intention to keep modules as simple as possible but allow users to take them wherever they wanted via the Form Designer, templates and the ACP editors. We didn't want any module to be too specific out-of-the-box. What works for some users doesn't necessarily work for others.

What I'll do here is put together a "How To" that shows how to do these things. There is already one about exposing the recurring event features of this module so I'll probably add to that. This will also hopefully introduce new users to the delights of the Form Designer, ACP Editors and Templates

Forum

Jamroom Developers

Just to add that the updated jrNingImport module, when I get it done hopefully over the next few days, will have the option to either import non-grouped discussions to the forum module, as it does now, or to an especially created 'forum group', as described above.
The choice is yours
