how to 'lock' main menu bar?

Design and Skin Customization

Think you're talking about the header section being positioned 'fixed' to the page on the Ningja skin.

The CSS that controls that is found in:
/skins/jrNingja/css/header.css

On line 1, it looks like this:

To make that purpley-blue section scroll the same as the rest of the page change that to:


and change the spacer to have 0 too in the same file:

Probably best to clone your skin first though to save it getting over-written with skin updates.

New and learning

Using Jamroom

These three are the big 3 when contemplating setup:

Docs: "User"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/jamroom-admin-handbook/2982/user

Docs: "Profile"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/jamroom-admin-handbook/2984/profile

Docs: "Quota"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/jamroom-admin-handbook/2985/quota

Then when you want to add features for those guys to use, you need:

Docs: "Module"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/jamroom-admin-handbook/122/module

If you're unsure about how to get where you need to get to and are stuck, try outlining your setup in a forum thread and ask for ideas, eg:

--------
The site I want to setup will have members that post paintings they have done in order to get feedback on them and ideas and criticize in order to improve their painting skills.

A setup for this might be replied to with:
* You only need 1 quota because all members are treated equally
* You'll probably need the comments module, perhaps the forums module, probably the gallery module for users to upload paintings, and perhaps the Photo Album module so your members can collect lists of images they like. Maybe you'll want to add the like module or the rating module, but not both.


With a plan making your ACP decisions will probably become easier.

Groups not showing from profile pages (only from dropdown)

Using Jamroom


Thats not right. If you follow groups that link should be there in your user menu. Looks like a bug.

The user will always be able to see the groups they follow from the:
your-site.com/group/my_groups

Regardless of whether they can CREATE groups or not.

Needs fixing.

dropdown menu from Profile name (where to find in language editor)

Using Jamroom

That menu is called the 'User Menu' and you can edit the labels of it from:
ACP -> MODULES -> SYSTEM CORE -> TOOLS -> USER MENU EDITOR -> Support Tickets -> MODIFY

--edit--

imported profile info

Installation and Configuration

Just to point out:
The Form Designer gets stuff into the datastore.
{jrCore_list} gets stuff out of the datastore.

You can add extra fields to any form using the Form Designer, but the input values of those will only be shown on the screen if you output them somewhere.

Can't add YouTube or Vimeo videos

Using Jamroom

Updated the vimeo module docs with the new access token step.

Adding "View All" links beside selected Lucid list module titles.

Design and Skin Customization

Paul asked for this to be added a while back, so the change was just sitting there. You asking for it triggered its need for release.

Thanks.

Profile Comments: Where should they show up?

Installation and Configuration

If you wanted to show a list of the latest comments that were posted anywhere on the site, you could use Site Builder and the 'Item List' widget to get a list of the latest comments and put that somewhere on the top level of your site.

Adding "View All" links beside selected Lucid list module titles.

Design and Skin Customization

The simplest is to add the link to the title, then style it with CSS.

(update site builder to version 1.1.6)

Then add this as the widget title:

The best thing would be to create a class and put it in one of the css files in your skin. (if you've cloned the skin) that way you could use one class to style the way it looks and have it effect everywhere.

Otherwise, you can style each one individually, but it would suck to have to go update all of them if you wanted to change the way they look, so a class is better. but if you wanted to not use a CSS class.

Can't add YouTube or Vimeo videos

Using Jamroom

If you add a NEW private vimeo video does it also not get the artwork?
