No Ning/Ningja Downloads?


Ning To Jamroom

Isleander:....Regretfully, those changes make using Jamroom impossible for me.....
Why?

Isleander:....
Why now make it so difficult for people who transferred from Ning to Jamroom?....
Prior to this structure if people coming from Ning wanted to adjust the layout of the home page in Site Builder they needed to re-build the entire page.

This new structure means the front page is already in the Site Builder system so they can just edit what is there.
Isleander:....
It's by no means an improvement to the Ninja option, but for me a total waste of time and money, as modifying templates is way beyond my capabilities!
It's a retrograde step you've taken.
The Site Builder system is the drag-n-drop option for those that don't want to look at code.

Your frustration is coming across, sorry for your frustration. Whats not coming across is what the actual issue is.

If you could let us know what the issue is, we can help solve that.

From the title, it seams like the issue is not being able to install modules. Now it seams more like the issue is something different.

verification email issue


Using Jamroom

Don't use the external server settings unless you have purchased a separate server just for the purposes of sending emails.

Then contact your server company as suggested earlier.

Ning To Jamroom

Check that your marketplace key is installed at
ACP -> MODULES -> CORE -> MARKETPLACE -> TOOLS -> MARKETPLACE SYSTEMS

If that is there and they are still not showing, send us your admin logins to support at jamroom dot net and we can take a look.

Embeddable image slider?


Design and Skin Customization

The Galleries module already has both of these features enabled.

You could certainly do it in the skin. I don't think any skins currently have it setup like that, but it is possible to do if you want to for your skin.

Using Jamroom

sending email from your email account and your server being able to send emails are different things.

Jamroom cloud Question


Using Jamroom

Current best option: move all the data files to S3

Howto here:

Docs: "Use Amazon S3 storage to lower hosting costs"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/jamroom-admin-handbook/3387/use-amazon-s3-storage-to-lower-hosting-costs

From the perspective of using the S3 to lower storage costs, but it could also be used to let your server just do the serving and let somewhere else provide the media content.

Brian's the expert on setting up cloud servers and he said he's thought about making a "local" file module module for distributed media, but for now the merits of that method still loose out to an S3 backend with a local cache setup instead.

Currently the issue is all the media files need to be in the same location and S3 is pretty much unlimited.

Blog Traffic Counts


Suggestions

The trick to this one would be giving it the right name.

* If you call every page view 'blog_view' then its not going to know which blog was viewed so will count each blog view of anything as 1.

* If you include the profile_id in the count, then it will count all blog views on this profile as 1 and you will end up with a total blog post views for the profile.

* If you put the _item_id of the blog post in the count then you will just get the count for the views of just that blog post.

Ning To Jamroom

Probably
* Ning Notes
* Ning Import
* Groups
* Group Discussion
* Group Mailer
* Group Pages
* Ninja Skin

All the modules you've purchased you can see on your profile here on jamroom.net:

https://www.jamroom.net/foxycart/items/profile_id=1049/user_id=1044

The bundle is not for sale anymore as we now recommend Jamroom hosting, but you still have all the module licenses that were part of that bundle.

--edit--
Actually it may still be available, here's the link to the contents:

Watermark appearing on URL Scan images and Profile pictures


Using Jamroom

have just looked at the code to see if there is a simple way around it. I can't see one.

The issue is that the watermark feature gets added to any image that is run through the image system.

Currently the way around it would be to create a simple module that listened for the image being displayed, maybe on the 'module_view' event. And in that module view listener, turned ON the watermarking IF the event was 'jrGallery'/'gallery_image'.

and do nothing for all others.
