Installation and Configuration

OK. I've started doing that. I have 4 or 5 sites I'm wanting to configure at the moment. The 2-site license makes it interesting, shall we say, for a website developer wanting to deploy jr5 on a million different sites. Give or take.

To give you an idea from my perspective...

I currently have one "main site" under the jamroom.net account blindmime where I purchased the superpack during the initial rollout of 5.0. I installed the modules in the main site and as I was getting ideas for using jr5 for other sites I'm playing around with I tried the modules on them as well. Now after getting a feel for it and moving on to 5.1 and the Marketplace beta and so on, I'm trying to organize things properly.

So I had attached a 2nd site and then a 3rd site to the blindmime system id. The 2nd site received the 2nd licenses OK, but the 3rd site did not (which is how the 2-license system is meant to work I think). However the 2nd site really only needs the Youtube module, maybe one or two others. The 3rd site needs this or that, other sites will need their own set.

So I released all the modules from the 2nd site and now it's gone from the blindmime account, but the 3rd site hasn't taken on the licenses vacated by the 2nd site and I see no method to assign those licenses.

The "main site" also doesn't really need all the superpack modules, but if I release them, I'm not sure how I assign them to other sites.

I'm thinking it might be nice to have ALL my current and future domains all under the blindmime system id and be able to assign licenses from jamroom.net to them, and then have them appear in their individual site Marketplaces for installation and updates. So you might have a tab in your jamroom.net account that is module-centric for one system ID where you see all the modules you've purchased, how many licenses you have of each one and to which sites you've assigned them. And you can release them and re-assign them as needed, like when you kill a site or re-purpose it, etc.

Anyway, just sort of thinking how it might work for a website developer who wants to deploy jr5 on a million different sites.

Are you saying the Paypal module doesn't support physical items at this time, but might be cloned and made to do so with some modification?

Using Jamroom

I see. So the Merchandise Store's focus is really digital items, with a physical item possibility. Foxycart basically just handles the cart side of the things, while the store module determines what is provided to it from jr5. I think I was confused by all the options I saw at Foxycart, but you're saying the Merchandise Module doesn't implement things like coupons, gift certificates, etc. There isn't a weight field so no hooks to shipping calculators, no choosing expedited shipping, etc. There is a field for product quantity on a product -- does the merchandise store have any notifications on inventory thresholds?

That's right. I've attached a screenshot.

I've done that, but the problem I'm having is that I have modules from the superpack already installed so they aren't available to purchase. The marketplace simply lists them as having no license, which is correct (I've used the license already), but I'd like to license them now. I'm probably using the youtube and a couple more modules for these sites. Can I just delete all the superpack modules without harming the youtube and other data I've added? Then purchase them through the marketplace?

Should I use one jamroom.net account per two websites? How do I mix and match module licenses on 2 sites?

Thank you ladies and gents -- I'll be here all week.

Using Jamroom

I am going to be building a small online shop for a local University's alumni. There will be approximately 20 products.

How do you think jr5 compares to something like Opencart?

One reason I'm considering jr5 for the task is they've indicated wanting to have some community-type features which I know jr5 would handle well. However, being unfamiliar with Foxycart, I'm not sure about things like gift codes, discounts, etc. Also how will Foxycart work on the backend interfacing with a shipping department fulfilling orders?

I've been playing around with a few different sites where I've loaded the superpack. I want to set them up properly so I've updated them to 5.1.4 core and set up another jamroom.net account and configured the marketplace. How do I pay and assign licenses to 2 installs?

I plan to have around 1 million jamroom sites (give or take). It's so much fun. I've purchased a few jr4 licenses, but I only ever used one login to jamroom.net, through which I've purchased the jr5 superpack and several additional modules. Now I'm adding more sites. Should I create additional jamroom.net accounts to purchase modules for these sites? Basically, how do I proceed to conquer the world?
