Clearing the cache steps are outlined on this page:

Follow the same steps after you think all is good, just to check.

Here's the marketplace for the bundle:

"Jamroom Cloud Bundle"

And for the items individually:

rotator comment and question

Using Jamroom

jrCore_list has a setting for no_cache so that might work, or cache_seconds. The rotator uses jrCore_list to get the images.

Can I Non Techie Do This?

Just checked, skysa bar works fine. Might need some customization to get it connected to the login system, not sure.

Can I Non Techie Do This?

Keep your domain names at godaddy, that's fine. I do too. But don't use their hosting ( Please ).

Hosting is just renting some space on a computer somewhere that's always on and connected to a really fast internet connection. Hosting companies usually compete on price per month and say "Unlimited (something)" but nothing is ever really unlimited.

Lately we have put a new tool into jamroom sites. All you owners can find it here:
ACP -> CORE -> TOOLS -> PERFORMANCE CHECK

Once you have done the PERFORMANCE CHECK, click the "Share Your Results" button to let everyone know.

That Performance Check system is still new lora, so we don't have a public list of speeds up yet. Its coming.

Hosting is important.
The key things to look for are:
* good speed from the system
* good support from the company
* common control system so its easy to change ( cpanel is the most common )

Do many people who use ning use skysa? Seams like that could be integrated fairly easily.

There was sorry. I just updated the marketplace with all 4 modules and slate skin just now.

See if that sorts it out.

rotator comment and question

Using Jamroom

Turn the pager off and go with 100 per time then. If it takes too long to load, cut it down.

Its your site, have it your way.

--edit--
use the crop="" feature to get the image into the aspect ratio you like.

Screwed, sorry.

Joking.

There are a few Ning users here who are helping us understand what Ning users need, so we're doing our best to make the system work for Ning users. I think you'll see posts from other ning users in the forums and they will be the ones most able to help ease the transition to Jamroom.

At its base, Jamroom is a development system built by developers for developers who then add to the system to make it easier for non-developers.

So where that leaves you: Not all the things that Jamroom is capable of are accessible without looking at code. But we also don't know what it is that your wanting to do.

So if your willing to make an effort in explaining what it is that you need, then we'll try hard to make that accessible to you without having to look at code.

You can help us improve the system for non-tech people. If you want to.

Dashboard error message

Using Jamroom

If you want to enable the du function then you'd do that in php.ini. If you want to hide the message, use the settings button on the dashboard.
