After switching nameservers over to Jamroom for hosting

Jamroom Hosting

If you already have the HTML, then you can add that to your skin directly, no need to go outside the jamroom system.

clone your skin so that your changes dont get overritten when updates come out, then you have a couple of options.

Docs: "Creating your own Skin ( Clone from an Existing Skin )"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/skin-design-guide/839/creating-your-own-skin-clone-from-an-existing-skin

Then add the template with the name 'tribute.tpl' and that will show up at www.mydomain.com/tribute.

Put whatever HTML you want in it.

After switching nameservers over to Jamroom for hosting

Jamroom Hosting

What your name servers do is they point to the computer (server) on the web which is responsible for delivering your website to the world.

Its like a street address. "Where do I find Dianebrooks?" "her address is 123 some street, some town, some country."

If you change your address, then people will look for you in the new location.

So www.mydomain.com is the house where they will look. and its expected that www.mydomain.com/tribute will be a room in that house.

On jamroom hosting, we only support jamroom, but other software may work. If it requires anything that is not already there it won't be added.

Don't install wordpress, its a gateway for your server to be hacked. But it is your server and you can upload what you need.

If you wanted to put a page at /tribute you can do that with the Site Builder system.

Kickbox email Validation

Using Jamroom

Still showing as working for us here on jamroom.net, activity log entry every day up to today.

Guess: Check if there are any logs at kickbox. Check your API key is correct.

--edit--
another guess, check if anything changed on your server around the time when it stopped working.

Adding buttons with links embedded in them

Design and Skin Customization

CSS should be put via SFTP here:
/skins/(YOUR CUSTOM SKIN)/css/(any file you want in here)

so in your case, perhaps at the bottom of site.css is a good location:
/skins/xxRC_10_03_17/css/site.css

Your SFTP details are here:

Can the URL of a page created with Sitebuilder be changed? Can the page be duplicated and given new URL?

Using Jamroom

yes, you can change the page in the page settings.
SITE BUILDER -> PAGE CONFIG -> PAGE SETTINGS -> PAGE URL

ffmpeg issue revisited (nearer a solution)

Using Jamroom

hard to know the cause. another guess is, is the /tmp directory limited perhaps. Im not really a server guy.

Yet another guess is is the file able to be copied from the /tmp location to its final destination.

How to limit length of update in Timeline Posts?

Ning To Jamroom

so location is already limiting to 160, so its not the location you are interested in if your system is not limiting.

Made this video for Zach a while back about how to locate the location you're interested in changing. Should be relevant to locating the template you need to put that truncate:??? onto to.
