getting an error with Mastro 4 skin with Annika live wall Audio buttons

Design and Skin Customization

Try running the integrity check and clearing the caches.

We'll check out the skin from this end see if its missing anything.

--edit--
You're new, sorry, Hi there welcome to the forums. The integrity check is a tool in the admin control panel that checks everything is ok, and resetting the caches makes sure the latest stuff is being displayed.

How to do that can be seen here:

How to upload and search audio and video by date and location?

Using Jamroom

Probably better to ask each question in its own thread. That way people coming after can search and see the title is the same issue they are having and see the thread is marked solved and read it to answer their own question.

The above, at least one of them needs a lot more detail to answer:
What are the steps you are taking to set this up, because its working here for me.

Not necessarily, If you have a set pattern that is followed, you have other options. Paul is the import specialist and knows the import process far better than I do, so may have some tricks to get urls lined up with where they need to go. (probably does)

If it was me and i had 10,000 url's coming into
site.com/cats/funny-videos/cat-does-backflip
site.com/cats/funny-videos/cat-catches-bird
site.com/cats/funny-videos/cat-........

Then I would come up with a module to do the work for me.


Something like:
* Catch the incoming url thats about to hit a 404
* search the datastore to see if it matches any known pattern
* redirect to where it should go.

Because writing 10,000 urls by hand would suck. if it was 5 urls a month though, I would go with the "URL Mapper"

how to set tags so only the owner can add tags?

Using Jamroom

This is a different issue than the one being discussed in this thread. (seams like a separate caching issue)

I will check it out.

Try to keep the rest of the thread on the topic of "....only the person who posted a discussion can add tags to their discussion..." to get an answer to that.

How Easy Is It to Move A Ning 2.0 Site to JamRoom?

Ning To Jamroom

Hey @catman, The size of server you'll need is not determined by the number of users you have, but the space they take up on the server. So if you have 1000 members who mainly write forum post and text its going to use way less space than if you have 1000 members who upload video to your site. (because video takes up more space than forum posts )

With the videos, videos that are uploaded to youtube but shown on your site are very light weight. So the heaviest things that take up the most space will be uploaded audio files and uploaded video files, then after that large images. Less of those means less cost for the server.

I can see a few things in your sites design that will require HTML customization, so a custom skin, so if you wanted to keep the exact same look a bit of coding would be required. Jamroom's flexibility comes from the skins being very customizable, but not drag-n-drop customizable. You'd need to learn the standard web development way of doing things. Its something new to learn, but its fun once you start to get it and it gives you complete freedom to do whatever you want.

Query Error

Using Jamroom


"MariaDB server version" ??? You're using a custom setup using a non-standard database.

The requirements outlined here

Docs: "Requirements"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/appendix-about-jamroom/774/requirements

Call for MySQL database, I'm not familiar with MariaDB and am sure we have not done any testing with it.

So you're question is "How do I fix this custom module running on a custom server?" so the issue could be hard to isolate.

Under a normal system the error your seeing is saying that your missing a value for your WHERE clause, which you are.

Its probably because there is no value for [module] => . Its empty.

Without detailed steps to recreate the issue its hard to say more than that.

Sure.

You'll want to add the URL Mapper module to your site:

Docs: "URL Mapper"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/modules/2956/url-mapper

That will allow you to redirect the existing URL's to where their new location is.

To help you understand which URL's exist but are hitting 404's turn on "Log 404 Not Found" option under
ACP -> MODULES -> CORE -> SYSTEM CORE -> GLOBAL CONFIG

Docs: "System Core : Global Config"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/modules/2857/system-core#global-config

Then any time a 404 url is hit by someone you will see it in your "Activity Log"

Docs: "Activity Log"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/jamroom-admin-handbook/4290/activity-log

Once you know what URLs are hitting 404's you can then map them to where they should be going to.

--edit--
Q: Does it keep the same slugs?
A: no, jamroom has its own system that relies on numeric id's to identify the topic, eg
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/forum/new_posts/43023/keeping-seo-links-forum-topics

The format is:
(domain name) / (profile name) / (module name) / (category name) / (group id) / (seo url)

how to set tags so only the owner can add tags?

Using Jamroom

Tested the tags on discussions: its working as expected.

Checking the "Tag Own Items Only" makes the tags box on the discussion only appear for admins and the profile owner.

System Generated Emails have junk like this in the subject: !-- BEGIN jrUser/email_new_device_subject.tpl --

Installation and Configuration

You have a developer feature turned on.

Go to:
ACP -> MODULES -> DEVELOPER -> DEVELOPER TOOLS -> GLOBAL CONFIG

and uncheck the checkbox marked "Template Name In Source"

Nice one, let us know if you get stuck. what it is is a way to tap into the flow of other modules stuff and change things.
