Integrity Check hanging after upgrading to new Site Builder


Using Jamroom

not a good idea to go back to the old site builder after installing the new. It makes it even harder to upgrade.

Remember this from our last talk about it:
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/forum/new_posts/39836/upgrading-from-very-old-site-builder/search_string=old+site+builder
michael:
Its real hard to say what will happen without doing it, then fixing the results. Probably after the import you will need to fiddle with things.

The worst thing to do is to change it, see things are not quite right and immediately revert because then you'll have an extra step (which involves database manipulation) next time you want to try, so set aside a few hours just in case. do it, and work through any issues after the transition.

If it all does fail and its not going to work, you can turn off the new sitebuilder module and turn back on the old ones and you will be back to where you are now.

The correct thing to do is turn off the old site builder after the new one is upgraded.

Then check for issues, fix the issues, and delete all the old modules of site builder. I can't remember specifics, its pretty old now.

sync added youtube videos


Installation and Configuration

Google doesnt provide as much info for videos imported with sync. If you require 'category' and 'duration' then don't use sync. Other than that the videos should be the same.

Jamroom 6 Upgrade Guide


Announcements

If you've cloned a skin then the cloned skin will be un-changed after updates.

The default skins have all been updated, so use the compare tool to them if you're seeing anything weird.

https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/skin-customization/2394/using-the-compare-tool-to-keep-cloned-skins-up-to-date

All of the default lists come from module templates unless they have been over-ridden in the skins.

JR5 to JR6 Ningja Latest activity "array" issue


Using Jamroom

If you are currently using the skin "Ningja", in JR6 it has been renamed to "Ninja".

If you have not cloned the skin, or made any alterations to it, just install the "Ninja" skin from the marketplace and use that going forward.

However, if you have customized it, read on:

There are 2 ways forward, keep the same code base, or update to the new. If you have just made a couple of alterations, it may be easier to install the "Ninja" skin and apply your changes to there.

If that seams like too much work, one known issue is that on the index page, in the "Latest Activity" area you will see "array" instead of the activity entry. This is because a lot has changed around the timeline system and the current skin requires changes to work.

The change is to locate this line around line 387 ish of index.tpl
ACP -> SKINS -> NINGJA -> TEMPLATES -> index.tpl -> MODIFY
{jrCore_list module="jrAction" order_by="_item_id numerical_desc" template="index_activity.tpl" pagebreak=12 page=$_post.p}
change it to:
{jrCore_list module="jrAction" order_by="_item_id numerical_desc"  pagebreak=12 page=$_post.p}

* click the SAVE CHANGES button
* click the CANCEL button
* in the 'active' column, locate the checkbox next to index.tpl, check it
* scroll to the bottom, click SAVE CHANGES

You may need to rest caches if that doesn't fix it immediately.

cannot add vids after update


Installation and Configuration

no, the version in the marketplace is the simple version, if you paid for it you probably got the full version.

If there is a visual problem, its probably a CSS thing. Maybe clashing classes perhaps. Where is a page to see the issue on?

Installation and Configuration

That character you had in there was not a legitimate character for its intended purpose.

The purpose was an HTML comment, correct syntax is:
<!-- this is an html comment -->
