How do I start?


Using Jamroom

STEPS:
* get a server
* install jamroom
* install the Site Builder package.

Your going to need a place online for your site to display. So getting a domain name and a server is first. Once you have a place that you can see in a browser, then you add jamroom to that to help you manage your location.

Once jamroom is installed, you can extend it by adding different modules and skins. Site builder is a collection of some modules and a skin.

Theres a lot too each of those steps, so take one at a time slowly, get it done, then move on to the next.

Best to ask each question in a new thread so we can address that issue, solve it, then it becomes useful for others later on.

serius issues migrating between servers


Ning To Jamroom

Your server guys are the ones in the best position to know what works on their servers. I remember a thread:

https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/forum/using-jamroom/7181/godaddy-installation

About Godaddy servers needing customization to the .htaccess file to make it work. Might be that your host has a semi-custom setup too.

Is this possible for viewing images


Ning To Jamroom

thechocolatelife:...Just to make sure I understand, the lightbox would be limited to the images on the current site-wide Galleries page?...
That's the way I was thinking to set it up, but it could be setup however you want if done as a custom skin thing.

Yeah pays to not put {debug} inside a foreach loop as debug window will need to re-generate for every loop which will take a long time if there are many loops. Put it after that. You'll only ever get 1 window anyhow.

If your getting output to the page, then try
{debug output="javascript"}

That structure doesn't show up in smarty 3 docs but used to be used in smarty2.

Smarty3 debug docs:

(old) Smarty2 debug docs:

Possible, sure. Implemented, no. I think the restrictive point is the skins. You could set it up like that to display in a light box in the same way it works in the profiles. The skin would need to have the lightbox there to do that though.

So my first thought is its done without a lightbox because its un-certain if the skin will have that setup for the module page to use.

I'll go check it out, not 100% on that one. If you wanted to implement it at skin level then it certainly could be done.

omg ogg


Ning To Jamroom

The help text under:
ACP -> MEDIA -> GLOBAL CONFIG -> AUDIO CONVERSION -> CONVERSION FORMAT

Reads:
Quote: Select the audio format(s) you would like to convert uploaded audio to. MP3 + OGG will have compatability with some older mobile devices, but will use more disk space, while MP3 Only (recommended) will use less disk space.
Default: MP3

From there its your call.
