store items that don't exist in datastore showing up in store

Ning To Jamroom

Any datastore is made up of 2 tables in the database.

For store it will be something like:
jr_jrstore_item
jr_jrstore_item_key

The jr_jrstore_item will just be 1 column with numbers like:
1
2
3
4
5

and the jr_jrstore_item_key will be all the data related to each of those items. The _item_id column corresponds the item_id.

So if you delete both those tables then run the integrity check the tables will be re-created and empty.

widget paginate vs list paginate

Using Jamroom

So don't paginate sections. add a "Read More" link to the bottom of the section that links to a whole page dedicated to whatever that section was about.

If its blogs, link to the page about the blog.

Forum Pagination

Suggestions

Its actually not on the todo list. on the JR4 forums we had epicly long posts with pagination.

changing to another page doesn't help with reading it at all. Best would be if posts didn't veer off topic, but sometimes they do which creates long threads.

You can always get to the bottom by clicking on the icon on the right of the thread for the last poster rather than the thread title.

That will add #last to the url and take you to the bottom.

almost got the seemless ajax pagination right but help me spot the bug in my code

Design and Skin Customization

When you look at the source code on the page:

there are 2 locations with id="featvids".

You can only have 1 unique id on a page. Need to get rid of one of them.

If you cant get http://validator.w3.org to come to your site to check the html code, you can use ctrl+u to get the source code. copy+paste it into their input box here:

widget paginate vs list paginate

Using Jamroom

custom ajax pagination is something that the skin designers can choose to put on if they want to. It wont be standard.

The default should always be less that can be added to rather than more that needs to be removed.

Add a rotator to this widget

Using Jamroom

Its totally flexible. Just add a template to the form field and add in whatever you like.

Don't even really need that as part of the construction kit, you could just use a list with a template and then use whatever rotator you desired.

Here's a link I quickly found on pre-made sliders:

"28 useful jquery sliders you need to download"
http://www.designyourway.net/blog/resources/28-useful-jquery-sliders-you-need-to-download/

Any of them could be made to work inside a custom template. (clone the skin first.)

--edit--
Unless you mean styling individual widgets, in which case great idea. Yeah I've made a start on that already but it proved time-consuming so will go back to it later. Thanks.

bug in domain to profile

Ning To Jamroom

Almost didn't look at this because its marked 'solved' always better to open new threads about new topics.

javascript is pretty easy to break. There needs to be no errors on the page for it all to work. break one thing and the whole page could stop working.

If you load jquery twice that could break it eg:
* load jquery
* load a plugin
* load jquery
* load a different plugin.

The first plugin could stop working.

Use this page to check if you have any errors on the page. fix them first before looking for broken javascript.
