Can i change the icon for chat?

Using Jamroom

You'd want to know whether your skin uses /icons_black/ or /icons_white/ first.

Or put it in both locations, then you dont need to know.

If you want to know, its in the _init() function in your skins include.php you'll see:

^ that shows the jrElastic2 skin is using the 'black' icons.

For your skin, make the /img/icons_black/ folder and put the icon in there.

yeah, because the icons provided by a module dont show up in the IMAGES tab in the skin, there needed to be a way to over-ride them.

so the way it works is similar to the way you would over-ride a template of a module you wanted to change. Copy it to the correct location in the skin and it will kick in automatically (after a cache refresh)

Behind the scenes the logic is: "Is there a file with the same name in the same icon folder in the skin? if there is, use that, if not use the default one provided by the module."

This will work for any module that has a /img/icons_black/ folder (or an icons white, if the skin uses that.)

copy the icon you want to override to your skin, change it there.

Then refresh the caches. so the icon you'd want to create is likely
/skins/YOUR SKIN/img/icons_black/chat-open.png

adjust as you like. Since its in your skin, it will survive updates.

As a general rule, dont change anything in the /modules folder, there's usually a way to override and also keep it safe from updates.

admins can't delete/edit Forum stuff after updates.

Using Jamroom

try logging out and back in again.

Cant get my head around the System Feeds

Installation and Configuration

There was a tweak that allowed a single twitter account to receive the sites timeline. Do not remember anything like that for facebook though.

--edit--
cant locate it though. may have been something custom I did a while back for something.

* firefox

jrProfileTweaks bug

couldnt reproduce it yesterday because I didnt know the Admin Skin module was involved.

Whats up everyone!

Off Topic

installing is pretty easy. add a database to your server, run the install script, enter the database details.

The tricky parts are deciding how you want to setup the quota system, there's a lot of flexibility, so keep it simple at first and extend if you need to.

And deciding which modules you want to use. Its better not to have to buy a module in order to decide if you want to use it or not, so take advantage of the free trial period on the Jamroom Hosting, or the longer free trial period on the Premium package on your server to install and try out the modules you're thinking about using.

Design and Skin Customization

nope, its not. you're good. easy.

jrProfileTweaks bug

Using Jamroom

Can see this now. Will look into it. The Admin Skin is doing what its supposed to do in changing the skin to the non default one when it is active.

Profile Tweaks is changing the default skin for that profile to whatever is selected in the CUSTOMZE tab then the Admin Skin module is kicking in and changing it.

Understand the problem.
