Added a new module: "Site Builder - Construction Kit"


Using Jamroom

The beta is available now. Turn it on at:
ACP -> MARKETPLACE - TOOLS -> RELEASE CHANNELS -> BETA -> ACTIVATE

Then install:
* jrMenu
* jrPanel
* jrWidget
* jrConstructionKit

and either the jrNingja or jrSlate skin to see it in action.

Its in beta, so please report any errors in a way that allows me to reproduce them so I can fix them.

Thanks.

Currently the errors I know about are:
* pagination of lists may not work
* IE11 page layout slider may not work.

Anything else, please report. :)

play count doesnt seem to be working


Using Jamroom

I just listened to :
http://ukbands.info/the-drunken-hobos/audio/6/what-to-do-now

So it should show up for at least 1 play after the caches reset. You could try giving it a move on by resetting the caches and see if that gets it moving.

Another thing to try is to see if changing the skins effects that area. If it does it could be a case of the wrong variable being used in the templates to show the output.

uniform pager?


Installation and Configuration

The blogs and activity on the front page are a bit special. They use javascript to reload that section only.

Its possible to change them to not use javascript. OR its possible to style them like the other locations are. Your choice.

Your sites coming along real nice. Your getting the hang of the system real well now it seams. :)

new version of ningja sitebuilder enabled


Installation and Configuration

the jrBetaJunk skin is going away now that this is released. the Site Builder system is still in beta, but now is easier to test out because its built into this skin.

Turn off the Site builder modules and the skin will revert to the normal jamroom skin way of doing things.

Twitter Feed


Installation and Configuration

As far as Im aware the twitter feed is just a snipit of javascript. You can put that in any template you like.

Or into the code panel of a widget when the sitebuilder system is out of beta. Is there more to it than that?

seo and gallery


Using Jamroom

Its setup for you as a service by the skin designer. You don't need to use it, you can build your own. It would kind of suck if the skin designer left you with "If your using skin designer, build your own stuff".

But on the flip side you can build stuff on your site with the skin designer and export it for others to use.

The gallery seams responsive to me. What are you using to test responsiveness?

My Developer Tools skin cloner is not working right


Installation and Configuration

Strumelia:Ok, thanks Michael fixing this naming bug will help folks in the future from pulling their hair out. :)

HOWEVER- Even with the new naming method, I still am not getting a cloned skin that has the modifications I had built into the parent skin.
I can't understand how that could be happening. Can you walk me through what your doing so I can try to locate the bug please.

seo and gallery


Using Jamroom

You have total control over that at template level.

You'll see that the gallery there is a "template" field for everything. So you can customize the layout to however you want it with h1,h2,h3 and any other tags you need.

Are you using the jrEmbed module to setup the lists or just typing in the code.

open a widget, click on the embed button, click on the CONSTRUCT tab to see a form to create {jrCore_list...} calls. (its the same as templates, but the form is supposed to help new users.)
