how do I choose a random quota_id from a set?
Using Jamroom

Quote:What I would like to figure out now, is how to "weight" one quota more than another.
The could be hard coded in the template something like this -
{jrCore_random_number min=6 max=8 assign="weighted_quota_id"}
{if $weighted_quota_id == 8}
    {assign var="weighted_quota_id" value=7}
{/if}
{jrCore_list module="jrProfile" quota_id=$weighted_quota_id  . . .}

Not sure about clearing the cookie table. I've never tried it so dunno if it would break things.
You could try emptying the /data/cache folder - I know that doesn't do any harm.
Also the jrCore_cache table if need be (I think I've done that before without any detrimental effect!!)

How Do I Modify Code - Featuring by Quota - Template Copying
Using Jamroom

Its really just a case of working efficiently and not scrolling up and down checking what the questions were.
Also, it makes it easier for other users who may have the same issue when they search the forum looking for answers.
It also helps if threads stay 'on topic'. Invariably, if a thread is hi-jacked, the originator is left high and dry!!

I think you've answered your own question ;-)

Caching - That's why its not changing. If you wait the cache time (300 seconds by default) it should change when refreshed.

To make things random you need to alter the order_by parameter the those top_members.tpl, top_songs.tpl etc. files -

{jrCore_list module="jrProfile" order_by="profile_name random" . . .}

If you really want these templates to refresh every time, try the following (though its not recommended on a busy site)

{jrCore_list module="jrProfile" order_by="profile_name random" no_cache=true . . .}

Search Error


Using Jamroom

Found it - There was a jrNingPage item in the jrTags DS with the text 'praise radio schedule' so the 'pra' bit was being found there, and the error was from it trying to get more info on the now non-existent NingPage item.
Have cleaned it up.

soaringeagle:ok so really the "groups" as aposed to quoutas is what determines the powers

'User Groups', yes, not to be confused with imported Ning Groups !!

Yeah - Calling it 'Admin Quota' just adds to the confusion - sorry. In fact 'Admin Quota' and 'Member Quota', as I named them for importing, are identical. One was cloned off the other. I'll have to think of another name in future - maybe leave it as the default 'Example Quota' - so as not to cause this confusion going forward.

Yes, admin (you) can assign other users as 'Profile Admin' or a 'Master Admin'. Profile Admins can modify any other profile and user pages, so these could be termed as 'moderators', whilst Master Admins have the same privileges as you so can help you out when your site get too big to manage on your own ;-)
As Admin, checkout any user account page to see these options.

Quote:i want to add 1 note wich idmade the mistake of early on
u can alow signups as admin if u check allow signups gfor admin quota or if u click apply to all and aloes signups

Not true - see what I wrote above.
No one can ever signup as an admin. The fact that I have admin in his own quota after doing an import may be confusing people. Admin does not need his own quota. I just did it that way as an option to keep all imported members in their own quota.

Problems importing members
Installation and Configuration

Have got the logins and see the forum topic count issue. Will check it out and let you know.

To make the entire site inaccessible unless logged in might be as simple as wrapping templates in -
{if jrUser_is_logged_in()}
    // Template code here
{else}
    // "You need to be logged in to see this page" code
{/if}
with the exception, presumably, of the index.tpl which will be a login form.
