jr_jrcore_log_debug This is the ? on the right side of the ACTIVITY LOG. Deleting the activity log clears this out.

jr_jrcharts_history This is your charts history. If you have any charts on your site "most popular for the last 7 days" type thing, deleting this will remove that data and charts will no longer work until the data is built up again.

jr_jruser_item_key This is the main datastore for your users. Deleting this will cause all your users to be deleted.

jr_jruser_session This is the user session. Deleting this will cause any users logged in to be logged out and they will have to log back in again.

Dont DELETE them, use TRUNCATE instead to just empty those you want to empty.

ERROR: dbConnect() unable to connect to database server "localhost"


Installation and Configuration

If it was working and you did nothing, contact your hosting provider.

If it was working and you changed something in the database, may need to check that database still exists and possibly restore from a backup.

If it was working and you changed something in the file system check that you have the correct details in your config file found at /data/config/config.php

Blocking Pins to Pinterest


Using Jamroom

Wow, that's annoying. Their site concept is to steal others content and you have to opt-out. Seams like their concept wouldnt work if they had to ask you first if they wanted to use your content.

Comments via Follow Me Skin


Installation and Configuration

possible to see the URL for that page?

My guess is its supposed to be replaced by the actual content, but would be easier to identify what that content is if I could see what is creating those strings.

First thing to try is make sure everything is up-to-date then run the integrity check.

Blocking Pins to Pinterest


Using Jamroom

Maybe this:
https://altlab.com/htaccess_tutorial.html

You're saying they are using the full URL of just the image itself right?

It also seams like they have the ability to block websites, may pay to send them a note and ask them to block yours.

Follow Me Skin Pages Not Found


Installation and Configuration

Not all skins are the same, if you had a url site.com/charts on one skin then change to another skin that does not have the charts.tpl file then the page will not be there.

If the page was created with Site Builder then it should still be there though.

Site Builder works by offering you the ability to create a page where there is none now, so if you go to a page that is not found it will say "create a new page here?"

Using Jamroom

The debug log from:
ACP -> DASHBOARD -> ACTIVITY LOG -> DEBUG LOG -> DELETE DEBUG LOG

Nothing usually goes in there unless you've put fdebug(?????) into your code to direct it there though, so may pay to take a look at what is getting logged. or delete it and see what comes back.

The others I would have expected would go away with the integrity check.
ACP -> MODULES -> CORE -> SYSTEM CORE -> TOOLS -> INTEGRITY CHECK -> (check all the options) -> RUN.

creating an unlisted admin Page


Using Jamroom

For the tab text,
{jrCore_page_title title="whatever title you want"}
{* Include Header File *}
{jrCore_include template="header.tpl"}
WHY: because if you look inside the file you're including header.tpl you'll see that it includes meta.tpl and in meta.tpl it has a line that looks like this:
<title>{$page_title|default:"`$default_title`"|capitalize} | {$_conf.jrCore_system_name}</title>
the TITLE meta tag is what sets that browser tab value. This is not jamroom, its just a regular HTML rule.
