Design and Skin Customization

Probably not. Not sure of the exact construction of the system but it probably doesn't use the jrPlaylist module to build the lists. My instinct is that it will be retrieving a random set of items from the datastore, not a user-chosen-and-ordered list which is what the jrPlaylist module is.

If you wanted to inject adverts at certain intervals, that functionality would need to be built directly into what you have.

3246 seconds is 54 minutes. A large file on an average server could take that long.

Depends on the size of the file, the speed of the server and how busy the server is. The processing is done via queue workers which take second priority to more important tasks like delivering the website.

So if the site was very busy and the server quite heavily loaded then processing could be differed til later.

On Jamroom Hosting all conversion processing is offloaded to a separate set of servers that JUST do conversions, so the main site server is just left to deliver the site, so you can get away with more media on smaller servers because they aren't doing any conversion.

website transfer

Using Jamroom

Pauls instructions cover what you are asking.

Go here:
https://www.jamroom.net/ibr/hosting/server_settings/338

In the Domain Name field, add the domain name of the site you want to add. It will be added to your server, then follow these docs

Docs: "Import an existing Jamroom site to a domain"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/jamroom-hosting/2547/importing-an-existing-jamroom-site-to-a-domain

to move the content of the existing jamroom site to your Jamroom Hosting server.

With Jamroom Hosting you get a 'secondary domain' to use while you do the import and setup process. So use that to view your domain while the domain Name Servers are pointing to your current location.

Signup , Signin Redirect page?

Using Jamroom

I normally hit the back button.

does the system count how many comments are left using disqus?

Using Jamroom

Probably better not to. Each item in the list will require an API call to disqus. If you have 10 items, thats 10 javascript connections to another server that need to happen in order for your page to load.

Your site, your call though.

Moving Modules

Using Jamroom

Jamroom Hosting already has all the modules available to your included in the price.

If you decide to ever leave Jamroom Hosting for a different server, then you will need the module licenses.

delete all active and cached form sessions

Using Jamroom

when you open a form, a form_key is set in the form. Its unique each time the form is displayed. This key is there when the form is displayed on your site, and is expected to be there when the filled in form is submitted. If its not you get an "invalid form_key error, please refresh and try again" type error.

If you reset the cache while someone is filling in a form, their key becomes invalid and the form submission will not be accepted.

The purpose of the key is to prevent form submissions coming from nasty people trying to trick the system into doing things its not supposed to do.

Upload Video Not Working

Using Jamroom

your queue worker says the video is working:
http://urbanmic.com/core/dashboard/queue_viewer/queue_module=jrVideo/queue_name=video_conversions

If you want to move to Jamroom Hosting just click the CREATE SERVER button here
https://www.jamroom.net/jsnzim

Then the docs to import the site to Jamroom Hosting are here:

Docs: "Importing an existing jamroom site to a domain"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/jamroom-hosting/2547/importing-an-existing-jamroom-site-to-a-domain

Its pretty easy, install a module on the existing site, another one on the new site, hit GO.

Thanks for the FTP details, but they don't allow me to get to the /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg level. I'm locked into just the site.

Do you have SSH or other login details that will allow me to get to /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg ??
