Apache and Htaccess compatibility


Installation and Configuration

No other suggestions, sorry.

If your hosts have an unusual mod_rewrite config you will need them to tweak the server, or try another server. Jamroom works pretty much everywhere although you will need good quality hosting if you are using audio and video processing.

Advise on Creating a Custom Page


Using Jamroom

You can use module templates, but you will need to write the module views to handle the templates.

Apache and Htaccess compatibility


Installation and Configuration

Hi @breeogle, welcome to the forum!

Yes, Jamroom works fine with Apache 2.4.

If you want to try out Jamroom and your host isn't suitable check out the hosted option:
https://www.jamroom.net/hosting

In the past I set up some sites on hosting which needed me to change this (in the .htaccess file):
Options +FollowSymLinks
to this:
Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
so you could give that a try.

Market Place - Jamroom Sites


Jamroom Developers

How many sites are listed as using each module? You should be able to use each module twice, once on the live site and once on localhost.

Market Place - Jamroom Sites


Jamroom Developers

I doubt that you want to get rid of that. It helps you to know where you are using your licensed modules.

Your localhost site can use the marketplace to install updates, and you can make use of that account page to know that your dev site is in sync with your live site.

AdminSkin and browser back button



I think it does. I did spend an unspecified amount of time on the ACP, but couldn't find a way to make the template structure work with the different html structure. Tore out some hair, backed out and installed the admin skin module. Too much work at a time when I had so many urgent things to work on.

I doubt that I will return to this in the near future. Our skin needs are basic, just lists of teaching workbooks/microsites. Profiles mainly deliver microsites (and a few ameliorations) to not logged in users. The microsites (workbooks) can have their own custom skin, although we don't yet have a choice of skins for the microsites, maybe soon.

On a side note, my new line manager has joined the Jamroom forum - @riggster. He beat me in the interview for the job, although I'm not sure why/how yet. He's a nice guy though, so I hope we can give him any help he needs in getting to grips with Jamroom. I'm hoping he's going to start posting to the forum soon although he sits next to me in the office. I told him that jr support is great and that he needs to engage with jr people (the jr team), the ACP (he's starting with a basic jr hosted site) and the jamroom forum in case I ever move on to a different job. None of that's your responsibility, and I have said to Mark (@riggster) that if I do move on I will provide as much support as I can through the jamroom forum so he should consider that the most reliable resource for support.

Please say a nice hi to Mark (@riggster) when he eventually starts to post :) The library is likely to be using Jamroom to deliver online learning until at least 2020, so I hope he can engage with it well.

AdminSkin and browser back button



We use it for providing a different admin skin :)

For various reasons (mainly the documentation) we have bootstrap html for visitors and logged in authors. Site and profile pages use a custom skin which provides bootstrap style templates for layout and item create/update forms.

After starting I decided that I couldn't justify the time it would take to do the same for the admin skin (it's mainly just me who sees that), so I installed the admin skin module. We use ujWorkbookJacket for site and profiles but a slightly modified jrElastic for the ACP.

I can live with the skin switching, and we have similar looking skins for both admin and profiles/site, so it doesn't jar much. It is noticeable though, so I report it here when I see it. I can stop reporting it if it's creating work, it isn't a problem for me and nobody else really sees it.

AdminSkin and browser back button



If I create a new user at /user/create, then change the user's quota, then use the browser back button to return to create another user, the wrong AdminSkin is used.
