Hashtag Question
Using Jamroom
Does JR have #hashtag ability? I know the question is kind of open, but people are so use to using hashtags, if there was a module or something which could lists hashtags, rank hashtags, etc. I think that would be a great feature.
Maybe the ability is already built into JR. I was looking around the docs and didn't see anything specifically relating to hashtags. I figured I would ask.

Just a thought, since you guys all use phpstorm and love it, maybe you could contact phpstorm and offer to sell the program on JR. Maybe get a discount for JR users?
I see it's $99 for most people. Maybe by being an affiliate you can get JR customers a discount.
Just a thought.
NGINX and JR
Installation and Configuration
I think the biggest hurdle would be the control panel. Not many people want to run a server straight up. Most want to use cPanel. I have to admit cPanel does make things a lot easier.
I know IPSconfig supports NGINX... actually I believe it's one of the only panels that does. I know cPanel has a plugin, but I think that's not the combo that is the best.
Taking things a step further, if the JR team made a lightweight NGINX control panel for JR that the average user could use to manage the server, you could probably make some nice $$. I know I would use it. Managing servers is hard. Keeping up with all the updates, etc is another layer on top of managing my sites.
NGINX and JR
Installation and Configuration
Honestly, I would really love to see JR and NGINX together. It would also be great to have a guide for setting up a NGINX server. I created a guide how to setup NGINX but it needs some tweaking.
NGINX with PHP-FPM and JR I think would be a winning combo!
NGINX and JR
Installation and Configuration
Since I haven't really seen anything relating to installing JR on NGINX I wanted to create a post to see if JR was able to be installed on NGINX.
I totally realize the Apache is king... for now. But NGINX is really rising fast and IMHO is an amazing piece of software.

For years I've used Adobe Dreamweaver to code. I've become very comfortable using Dreamweaver. I really don't use it for more than anything but straight up coding.
Recently, I've decided to cancel my $50 a month subscription to Adobe Creative Cloud. I have an older version of Creative Suite Web Premium 5 that I can use but Dreamweaver in CC 5 is horrible.
I'm running Windows and I'm looking for another editor. I've seen phpstorm mentioned on this site a couple of times. I've also downloaded Sublime Text 3 which looks very nice.
Does anyone have any recommendations for both FREE and PAID editors?

Documentation Comments
Suggestions
I'll agree with you, php.net comments do work. In the end, it's up to you guys what you want to do.
I was looking over the docs last night... Wow, much better then the old docs. Not that the old docs were bad or anything, the new docs really explain things well.
Unified Forum

Excellent, I'll have to check that out. I plan on installing the new JR in the near future. Just slammed with the forum I currently run.
I actually had a really nice template created for JR4 but never deployed.

Unified Forum
Suggestions
I like how each JR site / user can have their own forum. Though, it would be great if there was some way (maybe there is) to have some kind of unified forum.
For the JR.net site it works. Most people will be posting on the Jamroom Network forum. But what if a site has 10K members and each one has a forum? If I was a member of that site I would want the ability to go to one central location to see posts from all the members forums. I wouldn't want to have to go to X members forum to post, then to another X members forum to make another post, etc.
Maybe an addition to the members sites a mod called favorite forums - where there would be a list of all the forums I was interested in. A quick link section to those forums. An additional button on each members forum to "Follow this forum" which then the forum would appear in the members favorite forums list. Additionally, each forum which is followed would have - "this forum is being followed by X number of members".
So, I would love to see:
1. A main site repo for all people forums.
2. A mod in the members sites for favorite forums which links to each members forum I like. It would also displays other info from each liked forum - last 10 posts, etc. So, I would know if I wanted to visit that members forum to make a post or not.
I would check out discourse.org. It's the latest and greatest forum software being developed by one of the stackoverflow creators. It's a unique re-boot of the traditional forum software. It's open source and written in Rails, but I'm sure you could get some great ideas from the development. The main site is discourse.org and the development forum - running the software is meta.discourse.org.
