Need help to create a module with Aparna


Using Jamroom

Not really, from just an image ;-)
I would need your site, ftp and admin logins to check this out. PN me with them.

Allow videos in a blog post


Using Jamroom

You can add it to any smarty text variable. Here it is added to event_description - {$item.event_description|jrUrlWatch_watch}

The layout of the links is all template driven so you can make it look how you want it.

Nova skin-Random Featured lists


Installation and Configuration

You can likely set the featured artists in the skin settings, but if you want the random, you'll probably have to modify a template.
Which skin are you running?

Allow videos in a blog post


Using Jamroom

From to top post -
kayskeem: or even if itll work a url code field that automatically pulls the video in the post ?

Slightly OT, but I wonder if this might be what you had in mind -

Its a custom module I built for another site I was working on. Its a smarty modifier that can be tacked onto any text variable. It'll scan the text for URLs and if they are local media URLs, or youtube, vimeo or soundcloud URLs, add appropriate players to the end of the text (think of what Facebook does).
If anyone is interested in this, I'll work it up into a marketplace module.

A more Generic JR5


Using Jamroom

A big post. Thanks for bringing it up. These are just my immediate thoughts, and not necessarily those of the rest of the team.
I think that its very rare for Jamroom to be just what a user wants, 'out of the box', and everyone will need/want to make modifications to the templates, small or large. Its also impossible for us to design a 'one size fits all' Jamroom.
I sympathise with what you are saying, but unless I'm misunderstanding you (and I will admit to not having read all your archived JR4 posts), what I believe you are trying to do is is relatively straightforward, but there again, I'm very familiar with JR5 and have been coding it for the past year. When you say that you are not a coder, I do understand that it can seem a daunting task.
As for more generic module names, I'm not sure what else we could do. Audio is what the module handles. We didn't call it the jrSong module. And we have a Profile module, not an Artist module.
There is one trick that may not have been mentioned - You can easily changed the module name that shows in the URL. From the ACP goto the Info tab of the jrAudio module. There's a field there for Module URL that says 'audio'. Change that to 'conference', say. Assuming that we have coded all the templates correctly, the word 'conference' will show in the URLs instead of 'audio'. Will that help?
Sorry, no immediate answers, but we do apprecriate your post. Hopefully others will add to this discussion.

cant download signup module


Using Jamroom

kayskeem:I had another question with the foxycart ecommerce do I have to pay foxycart monthly just to use that feature? I dont want to use the test version in case I get people who want to sell music.

Yes. There has been much discussion on this forum over the past few months about FoxyCart. Search the forum and check out some of the threads. Also, check the link below. It has all information about FC as well as a video detailing our reasons for choosing it.
