Using Jamroom

Not able to reproduce here.

What i did:
* with jrSlate set as the active skin
* go to ACP -> SYSTEM CORE -> QUOTA CONFIG
* uncheck a few of the active text formatters
* click "Save Changes"
* go to ACP -> SKINS -> NINGJA -> Set as active skin
* return to ACP -> SYSTEM CORE -> QUOTA CONFIG
* add a few more check marks -> Save Changes

Went around like that a few times but am un-able to make it fail.

Could you provide steps to see it happening please so I can check it out.

Thanks

I like that style of layout. Its very similar to the Slate skins one.

Yup, my complaint is they stopped supporting flash for linux.

Tried to play a .swf file in a local player the other day, took HOURS to get something that worked. All I wanted was to pause the damn thing.

Embedding images as icons or thumbnails

Using Jamroom

The lightbox system is done via javascript. There is no way to make it fire without looking at code.

So by JUST using the WYSIWYG editor there is no way currently implemented.

If you wanted to implement it, you'd need to figure out a way to understand what images you wanted targeted. ( perhaps all the images placed into the WYSIWYG editor)

Then put some script in perhaps the skins footer to fire off the lightbox.

It would be a skin level implementation, not something that would be done by default for all skins.

Installation and Configuration

There is no module for ticket sales yet. You could sell tickets if you posted the tickets out, but individually numbering tickets for events system does not exist.

You could sell Files and add that file to the events so the file is for sale from the event page, but there would be no way to ensure that that file was only printed/used once.

Suggestions

Super big thanks for all your effort in letting others know about Jamroom. Its not something we're particularly strong at, marketing, so all word of mouth stuff is really precious.

Much appreciated.

Proxima Question

Proxima

We're good at writing code. Not so great with marketing speak. What should the usage chart look like?

Undeleting profile

Using Jamroom

I'm assuming by "Label" that that is a quota you have created. What is a "Label Artist"? Is it one of the profiles that the Power user in the "Label" quota has created?

Each user has a "home profile" you can get that profiles data from the templates via:
{jrUser_home_profile_key key="profile_url"}

where key is whatever profile key you want.

If you could provide steps to on how to setup what you have and outline what your trying to figure out it might be easier to offer a solution.

Forum

Jamroom Developers


The debate is between "Do I have one profile for the whole site where users contribute to" vs "Does each profile have their own forum."

An example would be right now we are typing on the forum on the profile for "the-jamroom-network" on jamroom.net. Its a Profile forum because it resides on a specific profile.

VS PhpBB which would be on the top level of the site, not on any one persons profile.

At jamroom.net we use the forum on the-jamroom-network's profile to handle the general site business, then other developers also have their own forums to handle their business.

You can say "Hi" to SteveX of UltraJam over on his forum here:
https://www.jamroom.net/ultrajam/forum

Each profile has a forum. Hence "Profile Forums". If you compare that to the old way we used to do it with jamroom 4
http://archive.jamroom.net/phpBB2/index.php

You can see the section for "Jamroom Solution Providers" at the bottom. That was a single forum for the site with sections for each of the developers.

So is "each profile gets its own forum" vs "one forum with separate sections for xxxxxx"

Glad you like it, we do.

* update the name servers so thechocolatelife.com points to the server with jamroom installed.
* edit the /data/config/config.php file.

It probably looks like this:

That will change to:

(assuming that the root folder of thechocolatelife.com contains the jamroom install and the jamroom install is not in thechocolatelife.com/thechocolatelife )

Then follow the steps in "Somethings wrong what do I do?"
