Issue with message appearing in ProJam5 in videos


Using Jamroom

Not seeing it on the demo system:
http://demo.jamroom.net/jrProJam/video_charts

But I can see it on your system.

The issue is:
<img title="moved " alt="Array.chart_direction" src="http://1940snetwork.com/skins/jb1940sNEWNETWORK/img/chart_.png">

The "alt" (alternative text name to use when the image is not available) tag reads "Array.chart_direction" which is not a great alt tag name.

The reason it is showing is because the image which its trying to show instead is not available at:
http://1940snetwork.com/skins/jb1940sNEWNETWORK/img/chart_.png

But that kind of makes sense because chart_.png should be either:

I think I see the issue and will get it fixed up. Its this row at least:
{jrCore_image image="chart_`$chart_image`.png" alt="$item.chart_direction" title=$cp_title}<br>

should be:
{jrCore_image image="chart_`$chart_image`.png" alt="`$item.chart_direction`" title=$cp_title}<br>
Should be back-ticks around `$item.chart_direction` in:
/skins/jb1940sNETWORK/video_chart_row.tpl

and also in the ProJam.

Those alt tags are fixed for the next releases of the skins they are in. See if that fixes it for the image to and if not we can keep going from there.

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


Ning To Jamroom

Yeah, admin will always see all the options available to everyone.

The profile owner will see all options available to them to add stuff too.

The visitor will only see tabs that have content in them.

domain mapped to profile?


Ning To Jamroom

Bree:... and the slider box at the top of the main page, in both cases the 3rd party code is inserted in an html box but in the case of the slider I also have some code inserted in the head code...

What was the slider sliding? and what do you want it to slide? We can guess at what your after, then get it wrong for lack of understanding and end up taking a while only to build the wrong thing.... :) Help us understand and I'm sure we can help you get it built.

Ideas on how to build a system to construct a template without code


Using Jamroom

I'm happy with the panels for now. Maybe later we change it to allow for more columns. Haven't seen many 4 col layout skins around. Suspect it would bunch up the controls for the widgets a lot.

Its the "do i want this list of images one above the other with the 'title' and other info showing, or just the image itself floating next to each other with some padding around them." that's the question I'm trying to tackle.

Might need to leave it up to the skin designers to build the options then the end user just chooses skin option or default option.

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


Using Jamroom

Got an even better setup for this today. Don't go crazy building stuff til you see the new setup. It changes the embed code to match the way template functions look so we don't need to write 2 sets of different documentation.

New Widget button disappears after sending widget to bin


Using Jamroom

Yeah that is a limitation. The issue is the "New Widget" has an id of "New" so there can only be 1 item with id="new" on a page at a time.

I'll take a look at re-adding it when it gets put in the trash. Thanks very much.

Ning To Jamroom

If you enable something for the profile eg: VIDEOS and that profile does not have any videos uploaded the the VIDEO tab will not show.

So what your wanting to do is already done automatically.

how do I choose a random quota_id from a set?


Using Jamroom

Ken_Rich:....Why couldn't it be simple like quota_id="7,7,6" lol....

Because that would make the question more complex. currently the question is "Which quota should I use?"

And changing it to that way would change the question to "Which quota or quotas should I use where multiple entries mean weighted options?"

Its a more specific question that not everyone needs. It would mean moving that logic into the main code to check for it every time rather than just this one instance your wanting to use it.

Slow it down everywhere else so you don't need to copy+paste that code into the location its actually used isn't such a great idea.

Its a little bit more complicated to look at, but not much. Either way shown above (Pauls or mine) works. You can choose :)
