This could be done (I think) but the option would be global, not per item type.
I'll put it on the list but it'll likely be a couple of weeks away.

Using Jamroom

Sorry Pam - Not sure what you are asking. Those are not skins.

my list of things ning migrators will mkiss

Installation and Configuration

@Strumelia - Everything you describe is either how Jamroom 'followers' does work, or is doable. The only reason that you, as one of my followers, is not seeing anything when looking at my profile is that I've not actually created any blogs or performed any (public) actions here - too busy writing code and importing Ning site

Check out my Jamroom site at http://motagator.com Its not particularly busy but there is some interaction going on between users. Signup and post some dulcimer tracks if you like, and follow a few users.

SE is right when he says that following is not reciprocal. Someone you follow does have to actively follow you back, and you can then optionally configure the site that approval is needed by the one followed.

Also, Jamroom does have a PrivateNote module that allows users to communicate with their followers. Its just not been implemented on this site.

Can you define the difference between 'friends' and 'followers'? I aways though they were pretty well the same thing.
Facebook has 'friends', and when you are one, you get to see your friend's activities pretty well the same as followers do here.

An 'Heads Up'

Installation and Configuration

Hi all
Just an advance notice that from Tuesday evening I am 'out of town' for nine days. I'll still hopefully have internet connection where I am so can check in, but not as frequently as I do now.
The Jamroom Team has been running at 50% capacity for the past week, just at the time when Ning imports have took off, so we have been stretched keeping up, to say the least, but the other two guys will be back this week so can hopefully respond to your questions here then if I'm not around at the time.

So, can I ask that all of you that have been emailing me directly with questions post them here, or on the main Jamroom forum instead? All the team will then see them and be able to respond, and that will also benefit other users who may have the same issues.

Thanks
Paul

quota confusion

Installation and Configuration

There is another Jamroom event called 'daily_maintenence' that is fired at midnight server time every day, so yes, you could also listen for that and make a quota changes on that.
For how to build listeners checkout https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/development/1011/events-and-listeners

All your ideas are possible with a bit of template work.

Thanks for the suggestions. Yes, I'll add a 'Work in progress' category, and there already is a 'Sites' button on this page that I'll add N2JR sites to as they go live. They will need to apply to be put there, hopefully with a short testimonial about Jamroom/why they moved/whatever that I can put up, along with a link to their site.

quota confusion

Installation and Configuration

Probably best to create multiple 'signup quotas', each with its specific cart options. Registering users can then select what features they want.
If you want to assign quotas based on signup questions you'll need a custom module that listens for 'signup_created' event. It can then look at the responses to the questions and allocate a quota accordingly.

To automate quota allocation on a regular basis, that same custom module could include another listener that listened for the 'db_create_item' and 'db_update_item' events. If those events were creating or updating something that qualified a profile quota change, it would put it into effect by modifying the profile's datastore profile_quota_id value. It could also optionally send the user an email telling him about it.
