Change color of menu icon

Design and Skin Customization

There's your problem, you dont have enough blah...'s add a few more and see if it fixes it.

Seriously, though, I need to see the code to help.

--edit--
Or a URL of a page where I can see the button. Then I can use Firebug to figure out what to change.

Change color of menu icon

Design and Skin Customization

Which icon do you want to change?

There are a couple of ways to do it, you can use CSS to target the item using tags on the page and change the background color that way. Just need to find some useful classes somewhere on the page that allows you to target the icon you're after.

The other way is to change it in the .tpl files.

The template code for an icon looks like this:
but you can change its size and color like this

Video Stream URL

Jamroom Developers

#1 yes.

#2 I just ran a quick test here. Uploaded a .mp4 and a .flv video. When I went to the stream url for the first one, I got a .mp4 file, for the second a .flv. There might be a trigger somewhere in there to request a different format, I'll look for you.

--
The function that fires when a 'stream' url is called is view_jrCore_stream_file().

Inside that function there is a part that checks for the name of the file and it has the extension that is retrieved from the datastore. among the data that is returned from the datastore, there is another similar datastore field that you might be looking for, its 'video_file_mobile'. so instead of streaming the /video_file/ try streaming the /video_file_mobile/ that will return a .m4v file.

#3 ask that again if the above solution doesn't get you what you need.

not .htaccess, .htpassword

Using the URL redirection module "r" to make a shorter URL

Using Jamroom

Perfectly valid use for the redirection module. Well done.

We use it for URL's that might change. So for something like "Recommended Hosting", currently it is company X but if they start to suck and need to be changed to company Y we can update all locations everywhere via one location.

This strategy is particularly useful if you publish things like PDF's. With a PDF, if you put a link in it you can not change the location later on. So if you had a pdf with a link to your recommended hosting company and that destination changed, its still the old destination in all of the PDF's.

1. yes, it receives the incoming link, records the date it was clicked, increments the click count and sends them on to anywhere.

2. yes, purpose is you maintain control of that link and can collect data on its usage.

3. sure.

4. maybe one of the link shortener services could make even shorter links if they were required.
eg: https://is.gd

add to search database for elevated users

Suggestions

You could use the jrAparna module to create a skeleton module, then use the Form Designer to add the fields you want to that modules form.

Use the quota system to only allow the module to be accessible for profiles in the board members quota.

Maybe even a module for each type:
CONTACT LISTS | MEMBER STATUS | FUNDRAISING LEADS | PAST GRANTS

Then use something like this:

S3 Media Download Issue

Using Jamroom

That function is prefixed with a _. Normally you'd not use that directly. That function would normally be called via jrCore_get_media_url() wrapper function that checks which media system is in use, local or remote or other.

Cloudfront is some sort of caching mechanism that has been the cause of questions asked in these forums in the past.

Might be a button you need to click to refresh the cloudfront cache. Not sure sorry, don't understand their system well enough.

Question about HTTPS images

Design and Skin Customization


This was an adjustment in the jrFeed module. It was setup to feed any module that had a datastore. It turned out that it was feeding private tickets, which is undesirable. So from 1.2.1 of the "RSS Feed and Reader" module:
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/networkmarket/72/rss-feed-and-reader?expanded_changelog=1

so in your modules _init() function found in its include.php file register for support. The blog module does it like this

replicate for whatever your module is named.

Using Jamroom

Worth the effort. Thanks!

Is this possible?

Using Jamroom

yes.

There are many ways to do it. The first two that occur to me are:
* build them a skin that doesnt have the top bar and activate it for their profile OR
* put them on their own profile domain then check the value of the current domain in your existing skin, if it matches their profile's custom domain, hide the header.

There are probably other ways too.
