Skin Templates

Design and Skin Customization

To include a template from a module, use this -


But I am concerned that you say files are being randomly deleted.
If you upgrade a stock skin, a new 'symlinked' folder will be created for it, so yes, your template will 'disappear' but it should still be in the previous skin folder. Only if you then 'Rebase' your skins will it actually be deleted.

Chart Stats

Using Jamroom

Ahh - That was in JR4. Don't remember much about JR4 lol
But on reading the thread it seems that there was a IC tool to rebuild song play counts etc. (which is not the daily chart data).
However, there is no similar tool in the current Jamroom.
Sorry

Chart Stats

Using Jamroom

Sorry, but I can't find, or even recall, a tool to rebuild chart data.
Chart data is built on a daily basis so not sure that its possible to build it retrospectively.

cannot access data or users after migration

Installation and Configuration

Personally, I would have copied ALL the JR files (root, modules, skins and data) to the new server, then migrated the database, then set the config.php accordingly. That way the site should work the same as the original.
Then, I'd update the modules and skins from the Marketplace.

Is it possible for you to do this again by this method?

How did you do the migration ?
Did you copy all the JR files?
Did you migrate the database?

How to Sell a Designed website off JR server ?

Jamroom Developers

Hi - Welcome back to Jamroom.

Create a Jamroom Hosted server for yourself, and do your development on that. You can have multiple sites on that using made up domains like client1.com, client2.com, whatever. These would translate to 'secondary' domains on our server as client1com.jamroomhosting.com, client2com.jamroomhosting.com etc., so do your development with those domains.
When your client is happy, he/she can then register their own domain and create their own Jamroom server with it. There are then tools to transfer sites between servers in our Hosting Control Panels.
Hope that helps

How to Change names of icons and titles

Using Jamroom


Be sure to clear caches after making changes. Alternatively, put your site into Development Mode to disable caching -

ACP=>Developer=>Developer Tools=>Global Config

Check the 'run in developer mode' option and Save.

How to Change names of icons and titles

Using Jamroom

Hi - Welcome to Jamroom.
This can be done by changing the language strings in the appropriate module or skin.
Go into your Admin Control Panel (ACP) and open the appropriate modules (on the left). Each module has a Language tab. Open that and edit the strings there. Clear caches after making changes.
Hope that helps

How to clear Simple Chat data ?

Using Jamroom

What Michael said.
Deleting a room removes all its messages from the DB message table (have just tried it )

Is it possible to merge two groups?

Using Jamroom

By 'merging groups' are you wanting to merge all members, discussions and pages? Presumably yes.
The easiest and quickest way would be to run a database query on the group table(s) to change group IDs of members etc. Best to do it this way if there's only a few groups to do it to. More than that it might be best to build a tool to do it.
Remember though that merging groups is unlikely to be reversable.
