Can there be an option to pay for this yearly?

Having pagination will allow someone who wants to run ads on the forum pages - below the first post on every forum page - to do that. It can be quite profitable if the thread has multiple pages.

Locking Videos / Live Videos

Jamroom Developers


Thanks for the info. Maybe #1 would be something you'd want to add to the modules in the future? I'm going down the list projects I need to do and I know that's a requirement of one of them. That's the reason I asked.

Locking Videos / Live Videos

Jamroom Developers



No, I wouldn't want to lock the whole profile, just selected videos and content. Let's say I was starting a JR site for businesses. The business would have a power user account with multiple accounts under that power user account. So, the business would want everyone to see their profile, but would also want to use the site to send non-public information to the sub-accounts or anyone else for that matter. If the business was legal in nature, maybe the user would want to send a draft legal doc for other members to review? Maybe a movie company was screening trailers for selected individuals?

Maybe it might be something you guys want to consider adding? Being able to control who has access to the content on a user by user basis might be a valuable feature versus a more broad sweeping method - profile privacy or restricting to a certain quota.

Locking Videos / Live Videos

Jamroom Developers

Two questions about videos.

1. Is there an ability to password protect videos. An example would be if a user uploaded a video and password protected it only allowing those with the password to view the video? Let's say a VP of a company wanted to upload a video on the current state of the company which was for internal use only. Is there a way to allow the video to only be viewed by members of the company with a password to the video?

2. Live Videos / Streaming - are there any plans to create a module for Live Video? So, someone could create a site like twitch.tv?

Thanks!

Proxima Question

Installation and Configuration


Let me get back to you on that one. Maybe I'll whip something up this weekend.

Proxima Question

Installation and Configuration

Excellent, perfect package. Look forward to trying it out.

Maybe putting up a simple usage chart would help explain it to others who are still trying to wrap their head around JR + Proxima and are too afraid to ask on the forum. Maybe even a master usage chart for all of your projects -> how they are different, how they work together, and it which situations you would use each one.

Proxima Question

Installation and Configuration

Let me see if I understand this correctly:

If I want to focus on the App I should install Proxima. Were Proxima will be a simple front end website (promoting the app) along with the backend. Proxima would provide the services like "hosted App" websites out there. So, if I wanted to create a dating app I would use Proxima to store the data from all the members (simple example).

If I wanted to create an App for my JR core site, I would use your soon to be released Proxima Bridge or would I install JR + Proxima + Proxima Bridge?

Proxima Question

Installation and Configuration

The Proxima software looks really interesting. I've read most of the information about it but I guess I'm not fully wrapping my head around the concept.

I would like to have a JR site and create an app for that site. I'm not an app developer, but I'm starting to study about creating apps in Corona.

So, as an example, lets say I have an existing JR site with all the modules installed. The site is populated with tons of users and content. I'm looking at creating an app for that JR site:

1. Would I install Proxima and use that as the interface between my app and the JR site - so I would have JR core + Proxima + app OR (2)?

2. Is Proxima a separate install that works with JR OR (3)?

3. Does Proxima replace JR core?

It appears that Proxima has it's own front-end which leads me to believe that it's replacing JR core?

Let's say I don't have a site setup and I'm beginning development of both a website and a app which data will be shared between the website and app.

1. Should I just install Proxima along with all the modules?

2. Should I install JR core and Proxima? Or does Proxima replace JR core?

Sorry for the questions. If I had a better understanding of the mobile space maybe I would understand Proxima. I believe I understand (maybe I don't) that Proxima is providing a link between the data and the app, I'm just not understanding how JR core and Proxima work together or if they're supposed to be used together. I'm just plain confused.

Search and Passwords

Jamroom Developers

Might be a great paid module for you guys at Jamroom. I know I would probably purchase it if my client decides to go forward with the project. Actually, I would also probably purchase it for my personal license because what user doesn't want to search for other users in their area... that's just being social (meet at the pub!).
