Event Image vs Source

Genosis

Theres always a number of ways to do things, sometimes one way is better than another if you have other plans later on for adjusting the templates, but if they both come out the same now and you have no plans to extend currently, then I think its an either/or situation where either works.

An example:
You can add an image as a blog post image or you can add an image TO a blog post. Both end up showing the image on a blog. The advantage of the first is that you can check when searching to see that the image exist before showing the post in a list, the advantage of the second is more flexibility in where in the post the image comes out, but the first way you can make a more uniform structure......... but.... and.... but.... and.....

whichever is ok.

Is there a way to delete users en masse?

Installation and Configuration

Yeah batch edit isn't the best way to go about it. The normal delete system will fire off all of the normal triggers to allow any other modules to fire off the processes that they want to.

Batch edit will only delete the item. The other stuff should get cleaned up by maintenance processes for orphaned stuff, but normal module delete process is better.

Profiles can exist without a user because admin can always edit them. You could always create a user later on and associate a profile with the new user if you wanted to give it to someone.

Mobile MCE editor popup problem

Design and Skin Customization

Have you tested this on an actual phone? Because a phone should not display the editor at all which means there is no access to embed.

When I looked at it I just squished the browser down to a really narrow width to see what you show in the photo.

--edit--
actually if the issue is just the table, I can get that changed.

Including templates in a module file

Jamroom Developers

and just to add to that, if your wanting to use jrCore_list and use a template from a module you can use 'tpl_dir='

eg:

That will look for sometemplate.tpl in
/modules/myModule/templates/sometemplate.tpl

instead of the current skin.

Privacy for Under 18s

Suggestions

The part I get stuck at is what to build. In order to build something I need to know what to build. I don't want to design the system for others to follow, just implement the system that is needed. And only for the locations were it is needed and wanted.

Kind of like "Peace on earth forever", nice concept, but how to implement it.

Aparna Suggestions

Suggestions

aparna created modules have a quota config tab. Is this something different?

NEW MODULE -> Quota Config -> ALLOWED ON PROFILE

Allows users in that quota to create that content type.

Mobile MCE editor popup problem

Design and Skin Customization

You should be able to click+drag that window where you want it by clicking on the title area and dragging it to where you want.

I'll see if I can get it to open a bit more centred for mobile devices.

Gallery Exif

Using Jamroom

Looking at the modules code, it checks to see if the php function exif_read_data() exists, so that will need to be available on your server.

If it is, the module tries to read the exif data and adds these keys to your datastore if they are set:
* 'FileDateTime'
* 'ImageDescription'
* 'Make'
* 'Model'
* 'ExposureTime'
* 'FNumber'
* 'ISOSpeedRatings'
* 'ShutterSpeedValue'
* 'ApertureValue'
* 'BrightnessValue'
* 'FocalLength'

From all .jpg, .jpeg, .tiff files.

It also adds date ranges to the search items function:
* exif_year
* exif_month
* exif_day

The System check will throw a warning and a link to: http://php.net/manual/en/book.exif.php

Is there a way to delete users en masse?

Installation and Configuration

Try it now batch edit 1.0.7.

Profile and User modules have a datastore but dont return an _item_id so they weren't working well with Batch Edit. Should work now.

If you delete the profile, might want to delete the user account too.

Trying to get a (scrollbar)* slider on Activity Feed

Using Jamroom

To adjust a css file you'll need to access your server via SFTP. You get the username . password from here:
https://www.jamroom.net/perrie/hosting/server_config/34

or:
YOUR PROFILE -> HOSTING -> DASHBOARD -> SERVER SETTINGS

That is the info you need to access your server.

With that info you are able to login and see all the files that make your site run.

Navigate to:
/YOUR SITE/public_html/skins/paPerrieNingja/css/site.css

* download that to your computer
* open the file with a text editor like notepad
* add the code to the bottom
* upload the file back to the same place

That will change the contents of the version that is on your server and will make the changes your after.

Here's a video on how to do it:
