GROUP search to include group discussions code...?

Installation and Configuration


When we added search to the index.tpl files of all the modules, the code used was:

Thats from the blog index.tpl file:
/modules/jrBlog/templates/index.tpl

(or coming via the ACP template editor)
ACP -> PROFILES -> BLOG -> TEMPLATES -> index.tpl

You can see that working here:
https://www.jamroom.net/blog/

The search box only searches for the fields listed. You can use the fields you need.

-- edit --
Not sure if its obvious or not, so..... to change that to what your after, you would locate the fields you're interested in in the datastore, (every module has a datastore browser in the TOOLS tab of the ACP)

They will probably be (I haven't got groups data in my dev machine right now) group_title and group_discuss so:

Question on setting 'banned' IP addresses

Using Jamroom

It works like this:
* Whatever you put in there will be checked against the first part of the string.

So don't do what I just did and put '1' in there because it will ban everyone including you.

To recover if you are locked out of jamroom....... ....... Go to the servers database interface and remove your self from the banned list.

So it will check for the first part of the string vs the ip address.

If you put:
123. it will block every ipaddress that starts like that. Using a dot is fine either way. The dot is checked for too.

Addresses to be careful of not blocking:
127.0 (anything here) is the local address, its what the server uses to talk to itself, don't block that.
192.168 (anything here) seams to be the normal address when your computer is on a network, don't block that.

?? The option to change the size of the image that is seen has changed.

Before if the item had an _image associated with it, that image would show up on the left hand column when editing whichever fields have been selected.

Now you can choose the size that image is, so if your dealing with image related stuff you can better see what the image is of.

check it out, I think its what your after. Let me know how it works.

Question on setting 'banned' IP addresses

Using Jamroom

Just checked, as it looks correct, but the actual format for partial is without the *

So I've added this to the ? for that field

Does that make it easier to understand, or could the wording be clearer still?

User Privacy Settings Don't Seem to Have Right Descriptions

Using Jamroom

Actually, I was over-thinking it. Easiest option is already in the ACP:
ACP -> USER PROFILES -> QUOTA CONFIG -> Show Privacy Options

Syntax Error When Copy/Paste Facebook SDK To Widget Or Template

Using Jamroom

No worries. Its just something new to learn, you'll be right for next time

User Privacy Settings Don't Seem to Have Right Descriptions

Using Jamroom


Yeah its possible, you could use CSS to hide the privacy setting option so they never see it. Or create a simple module to check for the settings and return them to public, or use the Batch Edit module to check that setting manually, so yes, its possible.

Syntax Error When Copy/Paste Facebook SDK To Widget Or Template

Using Jamroom

yeah, you cant have {return;} you need to have spaces in between { and the first letter. so make it { return; } and you'll be good to go.

If you were pasting that into an HTML template, you'd be fine, but its a smarty template and smarty looks for {something but ignores {(space)something
