Is this possible for the Timline activity to show title of photo and or thumbnail ?
Design and Skin Customization

Could be, try throwing a {debug} into the item_action.tpl for the module your after. That will give you what is available for in that template.

On the left you will see the variable name, it will be like {$item} and on the right are all the things that you can output, they will look like item_name => "something ehere". That means if you put {$item.item_name} in your template you will get the output of "something ehere" when viewed in the browser.

"{debug}"

You can use those variables to structure whatever output you like.

Profile Layouts
Design and Skin Customization

gary.moncrieff:...I am using the Profile Tweaks module, along with a cut down version of my base skin as the base for each profile layout.

For Business profiles I want to give the option of an ecommerce index page or more of a corporate style index.

I am wondering is there any other way other than adding a series of profile fields to control the content of a slideshow? Just wary of this area having field overload.


The Form Designer is the first way that springs to mind for me as it allows the images to be associated with the profile instead of with the skin.

Since its a profile thing, your going to need to have the images associated with the profile to know what to display.

So what you need is a way to allow the adding of multiple images. So thats either mulitple FILE Form Designer fields, or a module listener that adds a 'multiple' file upload field (pretty sure the Form Designer is a single file set thing from memory..... ). If you went the "Events and Listeners" route and built a simple module you could add a mulitple file upload field to the form and like the way images get uploded in the gallery module.

Then in the templates check for those images existance and if they exist, show them in a slider.

Doesn't solve the problem of user uploading wrong aspect images or wrong scale images, but its a starting point.

Possible playlist bug for admins only?
Using Jamroom

We haven't been able to solve the other one, so yes that makes the most sense to me.

I did help with some stuff, I don't remember turning on the playlist button. I'll go poke around a bit now and see if I can locate where its coming from.

test site migrating 3.0 ning site
Installation and Configuration

Paul's investigating the methods of getting the 3.0 data you have into ways to get it into jamroom, He'll be around later on today or tomorrow as he's got a music thing on this weekend.

I think the idea of a comparison of what the ning site looked like and what it becomes when moved to Jamroom is a great idea. Seams like the type of thing that many people would be interested in. :)

Using Jamroom

on your site, the "add to playlist" button as been added to the YouTube and Vimeo items, its not there by default. I looked and am not sure where it was added. Do you know when/where that happened and if it was on purpose or not?

That would be the first step in getting it sorted, deciding how you want to get it sorted.
* keep the add to playlist button and figure out a solution for getting it to play.
* remove the add to playlist button for things that dont play in playlists.

Possible playlist bug for admins only?
Using Jamroom

This is the code for the remove button for the jrVideo
{jrCore_module_function function="jrPlaylist_remove_button" id="#v`$playlist_item._item_id`" module="jrVideo" playlist_id=$playlist_id item_id=$playlist_item._item_id}
from
/modules/jrVideo/templates/item_playlist.tpl

Because jrYouTube doesn't have an item_playlist.tpl its showing a different format which seams to be the jrYouTube's item_list.tpl unless you've created an item_playlist.tpl for the jrYouTube module.

The code for the remove button should be:
{jrCore_module_function function="jrPlaylist_remove_button" id="#y`$playlist_item._item_id`" module="jrYouTube" playlist_id=$playlist_id item_id=$playlist_item._item_id}

which needs to go into whatever template is controling the output of the item in that list.

Strumelia:....Nope, this bug is real- just did some more testing.
It's appearing only for Youtube-added videos...

The issue is not with the playlist module in this case, Yes its possible to alter the templates to allow youtube and vimeo to be ADDED to a playlist, the playlist module is happy with that, no worries.

The issue is that both youtube and vimeo require their videos to be played in their player. There is no player that we have located yet that is capable of playing youtube and vimeo and native video all in the same place.

So the issue is with playback.

Skin changes
Design and Skin Customization

There are many ways to do it and how you like to will depend on how you like to setup for development.

If you have a compare tool, then it should be able to compare folder too to tell you what files are different. I use "KDiff3" because thats whats on my operating system.

If your using an IDE (which i suspect you are) the you can use GIT to show you what changes are different in the new updated version.

When I'm doing most of my updates to the site via the marketplace system, what I do to know what changed is to use:
ACP -> DEVELOPER TOOLS -> REBASE MODULES

To get rid of all the versions of the modules and JUST keep the most up-to-date version on the server.

Then after I update and rebase, I download to my IDE (which is fully committed) and GIT will show me what has changed.

So that's a couple of options there are many more.

---
What changed is footer.css

It did look like this:
#footer {
    background: #333333 url("{$jrElastic_img_url}/bckgrd.png");
}

and that changed to
/* @title Footer color */
/* @help Footer */
#footer {
    background-image: url("{$jrElastic_img_url}/bckgrd.png");
    background-color: #333333;
}

The reason for the change was to allow the STYLE tab on the Elastic skin to be able to update that CSS property from the ACP (also something I think is not something you do, so its not a change that will effect your skin i suspect.) :)
