Unique content url
Installation and Configuration

There is no other linking system that exist other than
http://www.mywebsite.com/profile-name/lessons/19/the-name-of-the-content

There are sites that do link shortening for you like https://bitly.com that will make shorter links.

You could build a module, but even that would need the /(module name)/ part of the url. Not sure why you'd want it.

Newsletter Subscription
Using Jamroom

Just checked the code. The unsubscribe function adds that:
 'user_unsubscribed' => 'on'

to the USER datastore, so setting it to 'off' or deleting that entry would re-subscribe them.

Your right, there is no interface for it.

The official payment system for jamroom was the foxycart module. Watch the video here:

"Why Jamroom 5 chose to use Foxycart"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/modules/205/foxycart-ecommerce

to understand why.

Then see the docs for the paypal module:
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/modules/1987/paypal-buy-it-now

Quote: "The jrPayPal module is designed to be a quick way to allow your users to sell their stuff via PayPal.

For a more robust Paypal integration that also allows you to sell subscriptions, use Paypal as the payment processor via the jrFoxyCart module."

Newsletter Subscription

They can re-subscribe by changing the preferences on their NOTIFICATIONS tab.

eg: here on jamroom.net for me its,
MICHAEL -> ACCOUNT SETTINGS -> NOTIFICATIONS

Then change all the "do not notify" back to "Send Email"

Member profile settings page missing Active and Quota fields
Ning To Jamroom

Check repair and optimize, i always do. No harm.

Yeah, its that doesn't explain it part that we need to narrow down. Who doesn't it appear for, then we can try to locate the pattern to help us figure out why.

Check if the users who are saying they cant see it are "Power Users" if they are it looks like they wont see that change option.

Then the code to check for that field is this:
 // If we allow multiple free signup quotas, let the user change quotas
    // But only if they are on a FREE quota - otherwise no change
    elseif (isset($_conf['jrProfile_change']) && $_conf['jrProfile_change'] == 'on' && isset($_user['quota_jrUser_allow_signups']) && $_user['quota_jrUser_allow_signups'] == 'on') {

That reads: "make sure the users are allowed to change quota. (that checkbox) and make sure the quota they are in now is one that allows signups." If thats correct, then let them change quota.

Feature Request: Two New Stats Needed on Profile Page
Ning To Jamroom

Those items that come out on the stats section are there because the modules registered the value thats being counted in their _init() function.

'profile_stats'

eg, the audio modules _init():
jrCore_register_module_feature('jrSearch', 'search_fields', 'jrAudio', 'audio_title,audio_genre,audio_album', 52);

Is it just comments count your after to be registered by the jrGroup module?

--edit--
sorry, don't have a jrGroup module setup or comments to just go look at.

Its possible to use paypal via foxycart but requires a subscription to foxycart.com's services which are a monthly fee.

It currently doesn't work with the paypal module. If you need it right now, foxycarts the way to go, otherwise the paypal module needs extra code added.
