http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21159778/clear-formatting-button-in-tinymce

Whether thats needed for everybody though....?

--edit--
The way I remove formats is to paste it into a text editor first, copy again then paste that. format gone.

Changing the background image


Design and Skin Customization

It depends where you've changed them. If you've changed them via the template editor in the ACP then I don't think the changes would copy over to the newly cloned skin.

If you've made the changes via FTP to the files then I would expect them to clone over.

Best way to know is just to give it a go.

--edit--
Personally I'm a big fan of doing the code editing in code rather than the ACP editor. If your just tweaking a couple of things then the ACP editor is great because it allows you to keep up-to-date with any incoming changes easily. But if you want to do a lot of changes, you cant beat the FTP version because you get to use an IDE.

Changing the background image


Design and Skin Customization

if you change anything in a version of the skin it will be reverted as soon as a new version of the skin comes out.

Your editing
/public_html/skins/jrElastic-release-1.2.1/css/html.css

Which is a version of jrElastic.

There are a few ways to do what your trying to do.

* alter the aspects of a skin via the ACP - SKINS - STYLE tab.
* clone the skin and give it its own name so your changes will be safe from upgrades

(you can clone a skin easily if you install the free "Developer Tools" module)

Editing can also be done in a couple of places:
* via the template editor in ACP - SKINS - TEMPLATES tab.
* via uploading to the skins directory at /skins/(your skin)/template-name.tpl

What skin are you using?

Arrange Blogs


Using Jamroom

Dazed:...I have 3 users who can now post to the blog category "News". As an admin, I would like to be able to sort the blogs in that category...

Where is this? Is this on the profile or the front section of the site?

Style Editor for skin


Design and Skin Customization

There is no single setting to change the skin on the editor. The editor is the tinyMCE editor.

There is a skin creator for the tinyMCE editor here
http://www.tinymce.com/develop/skin.php

but there are no other skins for tinyMCE included in with Jamroom right now.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Enforce Strong Passwords


Suggestions

MySong:....Could also contain backwards compatibility for existing passwords, either to continue to allow them to work or force reset upon next login.

The first bit is easy enough to build. Just needs a listener on the 'form_validate_exit' event to check the password.

but the check against existing passwords is impossible. Passwords are not stored as clear-text in the database, so there is no way to retrieve them to see if they pass the test or not.

Limiting Tagging to Admins


Suggestions

MySong:... when 'admin quota' has 'Allowed to Add Tags' checked
and 'artist quota' does not, then even the 'admin quota' can not add tags to items owned by 'artist quota'....

This seams like a bug. I'll check it out.

Should be the two permissions:
* Allowed to Add Tags
Quote: If checked, users in this quota will be able to add tags to items that have an add tag form.

* Show on Detail Pages
Quote: If this option is checked, a Tags section will show at the bottom of Item Detail Pages for profiles in this quota.

so setting "allowed to tag" to off and "show on details page" to on, should give you what you want.
