Module Relationships and Question about counting number entries in multiple fields.


Using Jamroom

makuta:....I would like to know how to create a relationship between the audio module and a custom review module....
ah, that might be the purpose.

You can add save the _item id in the datastore. so if underneath the audio item you add a review template, when you save the info to the review_ data store, add in a field for review_audio_item_id that corresponds to the '_item_id' of the audio file in the audio files datastore.

Then when you search on your datastore, you can retrieve all the associated reviews.

either in code in a module:
        // get reviews for audio item 15
        $_sp = array(
            'search'        => array(
                "review_audio_item_id = 15"
            ),
            'skip_triggers' => true,
            'limit'         => 1000000
        );
        $_rt = jrCore_db_search_items('xxReviews', $_sp);

or in the templates
{jrCore_list module="xxReviews" search="review_audio_item_id = 15" .......}

in the example above the module is called xxReviews and i chose audio item id 15, you'd probably use a variable there.

makuta:
how can I store data in a field then automatically add it to another field from a cronjob?

I don't understand the purpose of the question sorry. Why would you want to do it via a cronjob?

If your going to build another module to have a datastore to move it to, then you might as well use that module from the beginning rather than move data over later on.

I suspect im not understanding.

Isleander:....sh: line 1: 22069 CPU time limit exceeded .....

That looks like the culprit to me.

It looks like the catch to "unlimited data storage". I read it as the server telling you: "I tried to convert your big video, but it took too long, so I stopped."

Seams like the server package you have is restricting how long you can use the processor.

Inline Activity Feed: Is there one or going to be one ?


Ning To Jamroom

John Bizley:
Thanks Paul, I will look into those skins. Just using the Jamroom ones for now so as to find my way around the system in it's default mode first.

@Strumelia's right @John-Bizley. In a lot of other systems a skin just controls colors but in Jamroom it controls features too.

The skin designer is the one who gets to say what Jamroom does by releasing the content that's been uploaded to the profiles.

Some skins will be setup as general skins that try to use all the modules available, while others are built for more specific purposes and don't show of some modules at all.

You can customize a skin to make it do whatever you want.

An example of very different skins are:
"The Media Pro skin Demo"
http://demo.jamroom.net/jrMediaPro/

and
"The Genosis Family History Online skin"
http://www.genosisfamily.com/

Both run Jamroom 5 but if you put the family tree building modules into MediaPro they would not appear on the skin at all. You could make a "Music and family tree" system as a skin but you would need to do some customization. :)

If your thinking Ning, then right now Ningja is the skin you'll want. I expect that once we get that skin sorted feature wise that you will see others bring out more skins aimed at Ning users.

Need for a Search within specific features (& Profiles/member List issues)


Ning To Jamroom

Ken_Rich:
brian:and if they "search" then search site wide?

Well that's OK if they want to search "site wide" by which I mean all categories. However, if you are just looking for Christmas videos, then you don't want Christmas blogs, and Christmas pictures showing up - hence a category specific search box in each category and a site wide one in the main menu.

There are 2 different things in discussion that seam mixed in that exchange. Brian is talking about the embed editor search/browse functionality while ken is replying with relation to the site search.

The "Like this?" screenshot is from the site, while the second one is from the embed from within TinyMCE.

It will be clearer once the modules get to the marketplace.

brian:
Do we really need to have a button to decide? Why not show the user their own items by default and if they "search" then search site wide? I think the cleanest and easiest way for users would be to remove the entire bar there (we don't need the 5/10/15/20 icons) and have a clean search field. If they search, show all matches in that category.

I think it is important that we focus on ease of use and NOT maximum configurability.

The button works in easiest without changing existing functionality of the module. The 'TinyMCE Embed Button' module has a "profile media only" setting that is on by default. So by default it will only show the profile's stuff. If the admin turns that setting on, then it searches everywhere by default. The button just allows the user to go back to searching just their stuff.

The 5 10 15 20 are actually useful. When the popup comes up, how big it is is determined by the size of the screen. having that as an option allows you the pagination buttons to show without scrolling.

eg: normally i can see 10, but with firebug open 5 displays better.

ningja 1.03 profiles the great and thed almost great


Ning To Jamroom

soaringeagle:....i cant figure out why im seeing both the pause and play buttons on all audio....
Your seeing that on your /audio page because you have a javascript error

TypeError: pl.jPlayer is not a function
http://greentechnologyforums.com/audio
Line 151

Which is probably caused by other javascript added to the page that is broken earlier on that causes that location to break.

Its saying "I tried to load the player, but couldn't find it."

since the code itself looks right, the first thing to figure out is is there any other javascript that's been added that causes that to break.

Got that added to the next version. It will need to wait until the next core version is released though as I needed to add 2 new icons to the core. (person and globe)

Also added in better search/browse for inside the jrEmbed module.

license Mail and buy


Suggestions

Jamroom 4 had licenses, but Jamroom 5 does not. So there is no receipt for buying it because it is free.

If you need your license for entry into the marketplace system so you can purchase add-on modules, you will find it under "Your Licenses" link in the menu at the top of this page.

It links to:
https://www.jamroom.net/networklicense/licenses

Watch this video to see where its used:
