How to change Events page on Sage skin?


Ning To Jamroom

"I want to change the code on the page, but Im not a coder" - Now you are ;)

Very first thing to try is to read this page:

Docs: "Using the Template Editor"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/jamroom-admin-handbook/3183/using-the-template-editor

Then add something. Baby steps is a good idea, so just add "HI THERE!" to the template you're interested in and see if it comes out.

If it does, you know you are editing the correct template. This is something I do all the time, add some text just to make sure im in the right place.

Once you know you're in the right place you can move on to doing what you actually want to do.

--
Since what you're actually wanting to do is remove stuff, you probably should know about 'commenting out' stuff.

"Comment out" means to leave the code in place, but not have it actually run, eg in template files the code to comment out a section starts with {* and ends with *}. Nothing in between will show:
This WILL show
{* This wont show *}
This WILL show
{* This wont show *}
This WILL show
{* This wont show *}
This WILL show
{* This wont show *}

RumbleTalk Integration


Using Jamroom

Open the source code on this page:
thedrunkendonkcom.jamroomhosting.com

If you see your code in the footer, then all the instructions are complete and your next step is to setup RumbeTalk.

If you DONT see your code in the source code of that page, then you've done something wrong, go back to step 1.

Auto Share this module


Design and Skin Customization

Before you get it done, make sure you actually read the 'Terms and Conditions' doc that everyone always just clicks "I Agree" to. Many API's say that you can only use them in conjunction with a user action and are not allowed to be automated.

Moving a Forum Category to another Profile


Ning To Jamroom

Bit tricky that one. There is the the 'cat_profile_id' in the jr_jrforum_category table, then in the datastore there is a forum_profile_id key on each datastore item.

The difference between a datastore and a normal database table is the way its set up. The forum datastore table where the info is stored is 'jr_jrforum_item_key'

Probably best to add it as a suggestion and we'll probably get round to building it. If its an urgent thing, you can sponsor a module or features development to bump it up TODO list.

user/signup challenges


Using Jamroom

Holly: Here's a screenshot of what happened after I deleted the 'meant to be for master admin eyes only' questions from the user/signup form:

The screenshot is not a Form. The Form Designer settings are just for the Form fields. What you have in that screenshot is a output in a template.

In a template if you only want those output sections to be SEEN by an admin user, use
{if jrUser_is_admin()}
    // put whatever you want to show just to the admin user in HERE
{/if}

So you'll need to figure out which template is creating that output ( it looks like its probably profile_sidebar.tpl ) and adjust it there.

RumbleTalk Integration


Using Jamroom

This page outlines how to integrate RumbleTalk with an existing user base:

RumbleTalk: "Connect your user base using the RumbleTalk JS SDK"
https://www.rumbletalk.com/support/API_Auto_Login/

Quote: ..... With the RumbleTalk JS SDK, your users will not need to login to the chat.......


STEP 3: "What to do on your end?
Add the following code to your website.
This code should be executed when a user has been authenticated. "


Based on that page this is the code that would go in the footer.tpl file of your skin
{if jrUser_is_logged_in()}
<script>
window.RumbleTalkAsyncCallback = function (RT) {
    RT.init({ 
            hash: 'YOUR_CHAT_HASH'
            });
    RT.login({
        username: '{$_user.user_name}',
        password: 'PASSWORD'
    });
};
</script>
<script src="//d1pfint8izqszg.cloudfront.net/api/v0.29/sdk.js"></script>
{/if}

The rest of the integration would be the setup. You'll have to ask them about any further questions related to getting their system operational.

Can we search threads inside individual groups (like searching threads inside individual forums)?


Ning To Jamroom

A.) Is this a question or a statement of contentedness? Think its the second, great. :)

B.) ...
(Question's getting long, I'll answer the title.)

Q: "Can we search threads inside individual groups (like searching threads inside individual forums)?"
A: Yes, you can use the {jrSearch_module_form} template function to search specific fields, something like:
{jrSearch_module_form fields="discuss_title,discuss_description"}
Perhaps in the
/modules/jrGroup/templates/item_details.tpl
template.

Docs: "Search"

Docs: "Alter a modules template"

Is my license from 2003 worth anything?


Using Jamroom

Not unless someone wants to run a JR3 site. Its not supported anymore and the new core is open source.

--edit--
The best deal now is to get Jamroom Hosting then you get use of all of the premium modules we make for free on as many domains as you like.

is there no rotator in new sb?


Using Jamroom

The UpImg module is the only one with a rotator widget in it. If you use the "Uploaded Images" widget to upload some images, then check the checkbox to the right of those images for the widget, they will show in a rotator.

For more complicated rotators, you'd need to use the Template Code widget.
