Need examples of modules/skins in marketing.


Suggestions

Give us a bit of time on this. We'll try to come up with a system that allow you to get more involved in a way that can expand as we all grow.

Need to think on the how some more. For now, any way you can think of to let people know what jamroom is really helps us out.

Issue with message appearing in ProJam5 in videos


Using Jamroom

The page is this one:
http://1940snetwork.com/video_charts

The issue at this point is:
* the $item.chart_direction variable is empty.

You've got that alt text issue fixed up. (and the next version of the skins are fixed up too.) The issue now is that since there is no chart direction coming out, there is no image showing.

First guess is do you have the jrCharts module installed?

Missing Events


Using Jamroom

The search box was added to the event module.
/modules/jrEvent/templates/index.tpl

Which shows up at:
your-site.com/event

some skins have an events.tpl file which will show up at
your-site.com/events

That would be provided by the skin.

How do you change the wording on tabs in the main navbar


Design and Skin Customization

in projam, thats in the
/skins/ProJam/header_menu_desktop.tpl

file around line 71. It looks like this:
{jrCore_lang skin=$_conf.jrCore_active_skin id="30" default="gigs/events"}

But its also run through the language system, so you could change it that way too.

You can find it in the Admin Control Panel at:
ACP -> SKINS -> ( your skin ) -> LANGUAGE -> (search) 'gig'

One thing to note is that if you are building a skin just for you and you don't want to use the language system, you can just add language into the templates if its easier for what your doing.

templates that add profile menu items and user control to hide them


Ning To Jamroom

soaringeagle:...now if i could only figureout why my members wont import id be happy...
Haven't done any imports myself, so not much help on that one sorry.

One tool I do use sometimes is this one:
http://jsonviewer.stack.hu/

You paste the json into the 'text' area, the change to the 'viewer' area to see whats in it. It will tell you if the json is broken.

how do I choose a random quota_id from a set?


Using Jamroom

I'll read them to you, first mine:
Quote:
Store these items ( '7' and '7' and '6' ) in a box called $options.
Randomly select the position in the $options box. use that position to determine the item. Store the value of the item in $wanted. (now $wanted is either '7' or '7' or '6' ).
Give $wanted to {jrCore_list.....}

The second one, pauls one, reads:
Quote:
Choose a random number not lower than 6 and not higher than 8. If the random number turned out to be 8 then change it to 7. Store it in $weighted_quota_id. (now $weighted_quota_id is either '7' or '7' or '6' ).
Give $weighted_quota_id to {jrCore_list.....}

So both are ways to pick a random number. {jrCore_list} doesn't care which way you chose to select that number. It only cares that it gets a number.

--edit--
Paul chose to name his variable $weighted_quota_id, I chose to use $wanted. That name makes no difference and you can use whatever you like as long as no other location around there is using it.

You Rock @melih ! :)

What would be useful is to figure out what needs documenting. We need to know what people need to know. Then figure out a way to present it.

JeffH:....Screenshots do not allow a person to go thru the offering and see how it works and all the features available.... They could be Jamroom sites with their own domain.... some way to display [the] product in [its] best light....

Seams like this particular request is not so much a developer level question as it is modules in need of examples of what they do.

First thoughts: Get a /documentation/ section setup on your profile so you can add to the documentation. Or perhaps turn on the blog module for you here on jamroom to allow you to blog with topics like "a look at the xxxxxxx module".

Do either of those ways seam like something you'd be interested in doing? I'll ask the others to take a look here and see if they have any other better ideas.

Really appreciated.

Using Jamroom

NingNova2 is a skin only you have. The issue will be the {jrCore_list order_by=""} clause needs to be changed to whatever the field is then the reverse of what it currently is.

numerical_asc orders A~Z
numerical_desc orders Z~A

So change it to the opposite of whatever it currently is and you should be good to go.

If you can past the code from /skins/NingNova2/concerts.tpl here I can point out which line it is.

#2) It looks like your using an older version of the events module. Make sure its up to date as there should be a search box in on the /event screen in the newest one.
