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.

Documentation to ePUB or app


Suggestions

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?

Changing profile look


Design and Skin Customization

Better to put each question in its own thread with a clear title. That way when others come later searching and see the title is the same as their question and its marked 'solved' then they know they will find an answer to their question.

The function you want is {jrProfile_disable_sidebar}

There are a few threads on it:

How to translate the Dashboard?


Using Jamroom

There is lots of stuff in the admin dashboard that is only in english. We here at jamroom.net only speak english, so can only offer admin support to english speaking admins.

Jamroom Facebook/Twitter Campaign


Announcements

jimmyk:.....Good luck! If you need any help, just let me know....
cut+paste composite of what the interface of the jamroom Advertising module would look like for the admin/purchasing user. ;)

Having trouble imagining how it should look. Thinking the concept is, site owner turns on the module and adverts start coming in from a central server of people wanting to buy ads anywhere on the jamroom install network. These are then over-ridden if there are any local ads sold on the specific site. Close?

Testing the Wall Widget


Using Jamroom

The template code isn't going to help you any because each module produces their own variable names. You can take the outputted HTML directly from the site and use that in structuring your module.
