I signed up back in 2008 and get get to my login information


Off Topic

The old stuff is all archived here:
http://archive.jamroom.net/

You can still login there and download JR4.

The best way to setup Jamroom now is on Jamroom Hosting because you get all the module and skins we made for free while on there. The Jamroom Hosting servers also handle conversion for you, so the server you use only has to deal with serving the web page to visitors.

You can create a server from your profile here:
https://www.jamroom.net/wootangclan/hosting/overview

There is a 7 day free trial to try it out. a LOT has changed since 2008 :)

Good to see you back!

This is perfect:

Try putting a space after each { and before each }

Another way to do it is to wrap the code in {literal} (YOUR CODE) {/literal}

Adding more LIST that swipes in the ISkin4


Design and Skin Customization

That code looks like is in the script.js file. template functions like the {jrCore_image} function arent going to be processed there.

Try putting that jrCore_image function directly into a template and see what it outputs. then put that HTML code into your javascript file.

What do you love about Jamroom 5 right now?


Off Topic

I like that I can build a module and that each end user can customize the output of that module so that it suits their own site. Means that I don't have to think of everything for everybody because they can tweak it to suit their needs.

I like that modules can talk to each other, so if another module does something that I need, then instead of rebuilding what already exists I can just pass that part off to the module that already does it, like image module handling images for all modules and the embed module handling the embedding of all modules stuff.

I like that forms are so easy to create for the module developer and so easy to extend by the admin user using the Form Designer.

I love that I can use phpstorm to build stuff, but that the non-technical user doesn't have to use phpstorm (or other development environment) to make changes.

I love seeing a new module built, then easily work in all skins without the skins needing alterations.

Jamroom Hosting with CometChat v.6


Jamroom Hosting

Go with File Caching you know there's going to be a file system on the server. Without knowing how cometchat performs under any of the other options its as good a choice as any.

OneAll Questions


Using Jamroom

oneall is not a template, its provided by the oneall site so you probably can't do much customization in this area.

pch:"Check this option to use the Advanced Sharing API, which is reserved for OneAll customers that are NOT on the OneAll free plan.
Default: off "

Sorry but I still don't understand what is the setting for. Should I set it to ON or leave it to OFF.
If you're not paying for a plan at oneall, then definately OFF

Yes the email can be translated via the TEMPLATES -> email_password_message.tpl file in the ACP.

You can use the {debug} function to find out which variables are available to you, then use an {if} template block to switch on the lanugage variable

How to translate the Dashboard?


Using Jamroom

nope, not right now, no way. Stuff that is pointed toward the admin user contains a lot of strings that come up from functions inside the core. Stuff that is not end user focused.

Example from the jrCore_init() function
jrCore_notice('CRI', 'Required PHP Multibyte String function (mb_internal_encoding) not found - enable in PHP config)');

That is a warning to the admin that gets displayed on the screen when they are trying to install jamroom telling the admin that jamroom requires the function 'mb_internal_encoding' to be turned on on the server.

Its not translatable. To translate it you would need to change the core files. There is no over-ride method for it.

Yup, thought about it, but haven't implemented it, it would be nice to be able to output to pdf and print the lot.

"Also, it would be great to have an Audio document type added. "
Where?
