In the Ningja skin groups are ordered newest to oldest by default.
If you want to change that, edit the group module index.tpl in the ACP
Find the line

{jrCore_list module="jrGroup" order_by="_item_id numerical_desc" pagebreak=10 page=$_post.p pager=true}

and change the order_by option

order_by="group_title asc" for alphabetical listing
order_by="group_comment_count numerical_desc" for number of comments (highest first)
etc
etc

1) Found this in the jrFollower module -

/**
* Returns an array of profiles a given user_id follows
* @param $user_id string User ID
* @return mixed Array of profile IDs or false if none
*/
function jrFollower_get_profiles_followed($user_id)

Haven't used it before but what I'd try is putting this in a template -

{assign var="_followed" value=jrFollower_get_profiles_followed($_user['_user_id'])}
{debug}

See what the $_followed array looks like in the debug window, then go from there.

2) Yes - Edit the appropriate template accordingly. What skin are you using?

3) We're not at the moment, but checkout http://www.cometchat.com/jamroom-chat

Missing a whole bunch of Groups...?

Ning To Jamroom

Probably worth checking.
Do it from the ACP. Select a module, click on its quota tab, select the member quota and see if its enabled. A quick way then to get to the same place in another quota is to use the select form top right.

I tend to leave the cache folder in place.
Haven't tried it but I guess that if it was deleted it would be created again when needed.

Found them all.
Groups were not enabled for the Member Quota so you were only show Admin groups.

If you are doing a fresh import, I'd be inclined to drop all the tables, empty the data folder and do a fresh install.
Of course, making sure that you have no skin or module template/language/css modifications on the database first, i.e.. anything done in the ACP editors.

The Ning import module is pretty well complete now and seems to be working very well. The only frustration I have is the fact that Ning fail to link pages to groups in their archives. There is a tool in the jrGroupPage module to do this by hand after the import, but if there are a lot of group pages, this could be time consuming, but as the Ning archives stand, there's not much that can be done about that.

Thanks - It was fun and a great family get together.

There have been a lot of changes to the import scripts whilst I was away, and since. I've done a few upgrades and groups import ok for me. I think its best/cleanest, if possible, to drop all group, page and discuss database entries and re-import them. Note that jrNingDiscuss and jrNingPage modules are no longer needed and should be deleted. Make sure you have the new jrGroup, jrGroupPage and jrGroupDiscuss modules and that jrNingImport is the latest one, then re-import all three archives (groups first). You'll also now need the jrForum module. In the import setup you now specify which profile forum any 'un-grouped' discussions go into.

I occasionally see that happening. I'll raise it as an issue.

Thought it had been quite here recently

Its pretty safe to delete any of the cache folders in my experience. They'll just get re-created again as needed.
