How To List using Blog Category

Using Jamroom

Cool, so we have the correct data output, now we need to format it, try adding the template back, that should get the formatting the way we want it:

Then if that is formatted the way we want it, the next step is to get the pagebreak and pagnation setup

Not sure I understand the explanation correctly. But lets set the pagebreak wiht hard codeed numbers first before swapping them for variables so we know what the variable settings need to be.

It shouldn't. That code should JUST give you the blog list for blogs in the 'author interviews' category.

Forget about how the posts look for a second, just want to get the right posts coming out, then we can pass in a template="" parameter to get it looking however you like. Lets get that first, then go to step two, layout or pagination or additional search filtering.

I use kubuntu, like KDE more than Gnome, just used to it.

Your using mint linux? cool.

You can paste the code in here too using code blocks [ c o d e]the code in here [ / c o d e] without the spaces.

Using different skins & site builder

Ning To Jamroom

The reason you're seeing extra options in Ningja is because they were put there by the skin designer.

When a skin designer designs a skin and wants to put an extra section in somewhere, they want to give you the option of being able to adjust that section without the need to alter the templates.

So they add a button in the ACP. One that exists in Ningja but not in Lucid is "Coming Events Box":
ACP -> SKINS -> NINGJA -> GLOBAL CONFIG -> EVENTS -> Coming Events Box

Which is a checkbox. When you check that checkbox, the only thing that happens is a variable gets stored in the database. That variable is then available in the templates. That particular variable is:

If that is then used anywhere in the skin it will output either 'on' or 'off', THATS ALL.

Its usefulness comes into play when used in conjunction with Template Blocks:

Docs: "Template Blocks"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/jamroom-developers-guide/3126/template-blocks

Now because the designer has your input on the matter, they can use Template Blocks to either hide or show a section of code. This saves you the hassle of going and adding or removing that section of code via the Template Editor:

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

The specific section of the skin that uses that $_conf.jrNingja_event_active variable is this one:
/skins/jrNingja/index.tpl
around line 97 and again around line 400.

That particular line reads in english: "If the Event module is active, and we have a value for $_conf.jrNingja_event_active and that value is on, then show this section"

You could take the inner section of template code from that template and use it in the lucid skin and it would work. The difference is the skin designer is setting the skin up for a particular purpose, they expect that you will have the Event module active for this skin.

How to eliminate Latest Music box from my Profile page

Using Jamroom

Yeah, thats easy to forget. Well done. Any subsequent edits to that template wont need that step because the template will already be active.

Profiles missing after migration from Jamroom 4 to 5

Using Jamroom

Check that the audio module is enabled in the system
Check that that profile is allowed to use the audio module in the QUOTA CONFIG

We don't have enough info to actually answer the question, so have to guess.

How to eliminate Latest Music box from my Profile page

Using Jamroom

That whole page is generated by your profile_index.tpl template:
ACP -> SKINS -> jrNingja -> TEMPLATES -> profile_index.tpl -> MODIFY

Its this section:

Docs: "Template Blocks"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/jamroom-developers-guide/3126/template-blocks

The code reads "If there are more audio items or video items than zero, then show this section."

Since you only have videos, perhaps change it to this:
