Limiting Characters in List Module

Design and Skin Customization

jrCore_list is the function that creates lists,

Docs: "{jrCore_list ...... }"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/module-developer-guide/89/jrcore-list

The default template is usually called item_list.tpl. so for the blog module it would be found at /modules/jrBlog/templates/item_list.tpl

But may be overridden by a skin template override called jrBlog_item_list.tpl

Docs: "Altering a modules template"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/module-developer-guide/1051/altering-a-modules-template

In that will be the variable that outputs the blog text, it will look something like this
You can find the exact name by using the {debug} function

Docs: "{debug}"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/module-developer-guide/1477/debug

Onto the end of that use the smarty function truncate

Smarty Docs: "Truncate"
https://www.smarty.net/docs/en/language.modifier.truncate

So to limit to 200 characters

is there a way to only alow signups through paid subscriptions?

Using Jamroom

Why not change the subscription signup process to ADMIN APPROVED.
ACP -> USERS -> USERS -> QUOTA CONFIG -> SIGNUP METHOD -> "Admin Validation"

All new users will go into PENDING until you approve them.

I have a very simple brain. I can only deal with one thing at a time, so when you put more than one thing in a ticket I get confused easily and am no longer able to be of assistance. Need to deal with one thing at a time.

Askimet With A Jamroom Site

Using Jamroom

If you have activated the Askimet part of the Spam Blocker module, then any newly created item will be sent off to akismet and checked to see if its spam or not. If Askimet returns that "Yes this is spam" then the item will be tagged as 'pending' and will appear to your admin users at
DASHBOARD -> PENDING -> (item type)

From there the admin can either approve or delete the offending item.

Change Names Of Icons And Titles

Using Jamroom

Probably you're looking for the language strings.

Docs: "Translate Jamroom into another language"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/jamroom-admin-handbook/541/translate-jamroom-into-another-language

Each of the language strings can be changed in the ACP (Admin Control Panel)

Docs: "Admin Control Panel (ACP)"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/jamroom-admin-handbook/3067/admin-control-panel-acp

Update the string your interested in, then reset the caches.

Docs: "Somethings wrong what do I do: Reset the cache"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/troubleshooting/114/somethings-wrong-what-do-i-do#reset-the-caches

custom forms send to custom email

Suggestions

At the moment a listener would be the way to do it:

Docs: "Events and Listeners"
https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/module-developer-guide/1011/events-and-listeners

The jrUser_notify() function is the one that does all the sending and checking of users preference of how they want to be notified and it has an event trigger in it 'notify_user'.

OR if you're only interested in emails, then there is the event 'email_addresses' in the jrCore_send_email() function.

You could use your listener to add any address you wanted into there.

is there a way to only alow signups through paid subscriptions?

Using Jamroom

allow non-paid signups, but keep them in a quota with all features disabled. When they pay, move them to a quota with access to everything.

With the Foxycart module I remember there being a way to sell subscriptions to non-logged in users, maybe its that you're remembering. Not sure if that exists in the new jrSubscription module.

integrity check stalls on verifying followers

Using Jamroom

There's something wrong related to the file system around the name jrFollowers.

Delete the directory /modules/jrFollowers module via SFTP then reinstall it from the marketplace.

Run the integrity check.

I'm guessing there is some other file in the /modules/ folder that is blocking writing of jrFollowers to the server.

I attached the followers module is attached to the ticket if you want to upload it yourself instead of using the marketplace.
