How to show different artist name?


Using Jamroom

yeah that's the issue. 'artist' is on a level 1 higher than audio_alternative_artist is.

try:
artist: "{$a._item.audio_alternate_artist}",

Using Jamroom

{if is_array($media)}
        {foreach $media as $a}
{debug}
            {if $a._item.$ext == 'mp3'}
            {
                title: "{$a.title}",
                artist: "{$a.audio_alternate_artist}",               
                mp3: "{$jamroom_url}/{$a.module_url}/stream/{$params.field}/{$a.item_id}/key=Hi9yH4xXiXFK/file.mp3",
                {if strstr($formats, 'oga')}
                oga: "{$jamroom_url}/{$a.module_url}/stream/{$params.field}/{$a.item_id}/key=Hi9yH4xXiXFK/file.ogg",
                {/if}
                poster: "{$jamroom_url}/{$a.module_url}/image/audio_image/{$a.item_id}/large"
            },
            {/if}

add a {degbug} into that loop. You need to check that $a contains 'audio_alternate_artist' do a search in the debug panel that pops up (ctrl+f) for the term 'audio_alternate_artist'. If its there, then you can use it. If it isn't nothing will show up.

Events - Adding Multiple Dates


Suggestions

AndyF:...Guessing that I'll have to modify the calendar.tpl, profile_calendar.tpl, site_calendar.tpl or small_calendar.tpl to get the end dates to show up under the main site event listing?....
You got it. Need to locate which one is being used, then update that template. What I like to do is put some identifier in to know.

so put THIS IS CALENDAR into calendar.tpl and activate it, put THIS IS PROFILE CALENDAR into profile_calendar.tpl etc.... then activate them all.

Clear the caches if necessary and you will soon know which is the template you need to fiddle with.

--edit--
Alternatively you can over-ride the template at skin level.

There are instructions for that method here:

Membership segmentation - feature request?


Installation and Configuration

How about the "Geo Location" module?

Its installable via the marketplace and will add that info to your user datastore so you can use it for whatever you need:

"Geo Location"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/networkmarket/4/geo-location

--edit--
actually, I'm not sure it does save to the datastore. If you needed that it could be added as an option.

Genosis Query


Genosis

First thing to do is to run the integrity check whenever you think something is stuffed up.

ACP -> SYSTEM CORE -> TOOLS -> INTEGRITY CHECK -> (check all the checkboxes) -> RUN INTEGRITY CHECK.

That should make sure your database is all in order.

Ningja skin update


Installation and Configuration

The clone system from the acp:
ACP -> TOOLS -> DEVELOPER TOOLS -> TOOLS -> CLONE SKIN

takes the "Skin To Clone" and outputs it to a new skin. What happens at this time is all the alterations that were done via the TEMPLATES tab of the skin are now written out to the file system.

So any alterations you did are now the default .tpl files for the skin.

Does that make sense? When you use the TEMPLATES tab to make changes to a skin, the changes are stored in the database. When you clone the skin, the alterations are made to be the default file system templates.

So if you are looking for the over-ridden templates via FTP you will not find them because they are in the database. If you clone the skin, THEN you can find them via FTP in the new skins directory.

--update--
an example.
in jrNingja i go to ACP -> SKINS -> NINGJA -> TEMPLATES and click on 404.tpl -> MODIFY.

I add "Hello world". The form shows that 404.tpl is being over-ridden and i can reset it with the RESET button. If i then clone jrNingja to xxNingja the "Hello World" will appear in 404.tpl in the file system and the templates form will show it as NOT being over-ridden.
