Great, next.

Whats up with vimeo?

I can see that your vimeo links for the image point to:
http://i.vimeocdn.com/video/274757282_64mqdefault.jpg

Which is 404 page not found. which makes sense because mqdefault is a youtube thing, looks like you've stuck that on the vimeo url, take it off and it should clear up because this image shows:
http://i.vimeocdn.com/video/274757282_64

But its real small and it has bars on it. Need to figure out what the correct url is. probably the easiest way is to go to a location that is showing the vimeo image correctly and see what its url looks like.

Embedding Google Calendar

Using Jamroom

Here's a doc:

Song streams

Using Jamroom

By streaming them, that would change the #.

but I reckon you're wanting to fiddle with the number for some reason or other as the admin user, so the datastore count field you want to change is:

There are a few ways to change it, either by the datastore browser:
ACP -> DEVELOPER TOOLS -> TOOLS -> DATABASE ADMIN

Or via the audio modules "Datastore Browser"
ACP -> PROFILES -> AUDIO -> TOOLS -> DATASTORE BROWSER

Or via the batch editor if that's installed.

Removing Black Bars from Youtube Thumbnails

Design and Skin Customization

right click and see what URL the image is using, on your site its set to:
http://img.youtube.com/vi/AklEEuRKpnc/0.jpg

so the replace that tries to replace any hqdefault.jpg with mqdefault.jpg wont be found in that url, so wont be replaced.

So for you the code would be:

There are many ways to do the same thing. The better solution for you is the one I posted in the other thread:

Design and Skin Customization

I get confused easily and there are a bunch of questions happening at the same time here. What does "Regrettably it didn't seem to work." mean?

Of the videos on this page:
http://animatedfilmmakers.com/devilsangelsanddating/videos

One of them has the image that appears here:
http://img.youtube.com/vi/AklEEuRKpnc/0.jpg

It seams like the image URL that you are after is this one:
http://img.youtube.com/vi/AklEEuRKpnc/mqdefault.jpg

So you need to adjust the img src="...." that is showing the image to the structure of the one you're wanting.

---edit--
so if that code above is still what you're using, the the line that has:
change to

and that should get rid of the black bars. Once we get rid of them, we can move on to the next issue.

@derrickhand300 has the solution for you on this one too:
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/forum/design-and-skin-customization/35371/removing-black-bars-from-youtube-thumbnails

Those black bars are coming in from youtube, use his solution above to get rid of them.


This is one of the url's that is linked to:
http://animatedfilmmakers.com/devilsangelsanddating/charles-lin/video/42/0717_deviltexturewip

But since you have the "combined video" module on, the uploaded video url got moved to:
http://animatedfilmmakers.com/devilsangelsanddating/charles-lin/uploaded_video/42/0717_deviltexturewip

So need to change the url to that.

There is a function that can be used the the templates to find the url for a module its:

Then once you've done that you can use /{$murl}/ to output the correct module url in the templates.eg:

Looks like your page is close to what your asking currently:
http://animatedfilmmakers.com/devilsangelsanddating/videos

the only think I can see that is an issue with the links is the image link doesnt contain the name in the url like the text one does:
http://animatedfilmmakers.com/devilsangelsanddating/michael-cawood/youtube/1486/
http://animatedfilmmakers.com/devilsangelsanddating/michael-cawood/youtube/1486/sh0285_earth_roots-effects

Its not a problem that will break anything because the 'sh0285_earth_roots-effects' part of the link is just for show. You could fix it by making the link for the image the same as the link for the text if you liked to.

Is there still a problem you're needing help with?

Global config tabs not updating

Design and Skin Customization

How do you know its not successfully saved? If you are meaning the variables dont change in the templates, did you clear the caches?

Docs:"Reset the caches"

What arrays?

Its hard to understand what your trying to achieve. More explanation please.

iframe validation

Using Jamroom

Lets start a new thread on this, its a different topic. Others who come here later looking for an answer to "iframe validation" are not going to have this new problem.

Looks like the new problem is related to CSS being stripped out. I can see the PART I and PART II links there, just they are in white and have not surrounding color.

embed issues

Using Jamroom


Yep, that addition was the update. Compare where it is against the new one that came in in the latest update if you want to position it the same, otherwise wherever is fine above/below.
