creating an unlisted admin Page

Using Jamroom

Not desirable, unavoidable.

SiteBuilder pages are stored in the database instead of the filesystem. For someone who likes to work with file system files Site builder storing them in the database means another place to look for stuff, so for those type of people they would not use site builder.

The flip side is with Site Builder you can make pages without needing to SFTP into the site, so that works better for some.

Follow the instructions above to turn on "template name in source" then paste the URL of the location in the screenshots here.

#1) ah, yes, you'll need to recreate the menu in the SB menu editor, sorry I forgot about that.
#2) You can turn the yellow buttons off from view via ACP ->MODULES -> SITE -> SITE BUILDER ->GLOBAL CONFIG -> show site builder buttons -> UNCHECK.
#3) To make a sub menu from the menu editor, drag it to the right. You can have up to 3 levels of menu.

Design and Skin Customization

Hard to know the exact CSS to use without being able to view it, then poke at it with developer tools. But its probably a border element added by the browser.

You'll probably want to add a class to it, then

attached is a .zip file containing an .mp4 video with the steps to locating a CSS element.

I think I been hacked

Installation and Configuration

Seams unusual that someone would hack your site and translate your menus.

Got a screenshot?

--edit--
would be a good idea to change your admin password immediately.

"Embed local media" works easily for images, oddly for files

Using Jamroom


They're not displayed on any profile. You'll not find them in the search results, there is no tab 'UPLOADED IMAGES' on any profile. Unless you know the URL they're on its unlikely that you will re-use that image.

No. Anything attached is just noted as being attached in the database. Since the text is not in the database where the search functions function the text contained in the PDF will not be compared with the users search string when they search on something.

The search should return the main location of the item which is on their profile.

You could sponsor the module to be built, jrUpFile that worked like jrUpImg if its important to you.

Its not that its difficult to build, its just that you're the first person express interest in it.

after migration images no longer seem to copy to cache (and fail on reload)

Installation and Configuration

do you have any extra caching system like lightspeed or other added to your system, check that first.

"Embed local media" works easily for images, oddly for files

Using Jamroom

The out-of-the-ordinary "Embed local media" item is the image upload, the files follows the normal pattern of every item belonging to a profile.

one of the core traits of jamroom is that the canonical location for everything is on a profile. The non-profile sections are just there to direct to a profile.

Think: Jamrooms origins are many bands uploading songs to their band profile. The songs belong to the band that uploaded them. Everything that band uploads is not the property of the site itself, but rather the bands profile on the site.

So if Tom uploads a file to his profile its Toms file.

When the Embed Local Media module got made it allowed the owner of the profile to embed their stuff from their profile into blog posts.

Then the jrUpImage module was made to add small images to the blogs that weren't part of the Gallery. But images uploaded via this method essentially disappear because they dont have a canonical location.

There is no module that exists to add files that do not have a canonical location.

Queue Workers Paused

Using Jamroom

other than clicking the PAUSE QUEUE button, not much.

Sometimes during a core update to a major version, but its pretty rare.
