Certain signup questions not showing in profile sidebar


Using Jamroom

My second jr site #2, which I created first as a CLONE (not an actual ning import though) of the first site, supposedly had all the same settings, but on the profile page sidebars, only the location shows, not the signup questions that show on site #1. I checked and those signup questions ARE set to be visible to 'normal members' in the form designer. Everything seems the same, yet those other signup questions won't show. https://pennywhistleclub.com/chifmunk ---See screenshot.
The code in my custom skins profle sidebar templates seem to be the SAME in both sites for that area, they are this, with only the skin name different:
         {if jrUser_is_logged_in() && $_conf.pwPWskin_March4_2018_profile_questions == 'on'}
            {jrNingImport_signup_questions user_id=$_user_id assign="ning_questions"}
            {if isset($ning_questions)}
                <div class="block">
                    <div class="block_content mt10">
                        {$ning_questions}
                    </div>
                </div>
            {/if}
        {/if}

Certain signup questions not showing in profile sidebar


Using Jamroom

On my initial JR site #1 (which was a ning import, and my custom skin is a child of Ninja), I had certain signup questions showing to all members in the profile Sidebar ...I had them set as visible to "normal users" in the Account "Form Designer", and other questions I had marked as visible to Admins only (questions created as a spam preventative).
This was the result, which is how I LIKE it... https://fotmd.com/kavik and see screenshot.

Some features


Using Jamroom

@resif , there's also a very handy compare Tool you can find if you go to your ACP -> Profile module, under -> Tools, click on Quota Compare. It'll be located at : https://(yoursite.com)/profile/quota_compare
In it, you can turn on/off access to various site functions ('rights', as you put it) for the different Quotas (member roles) you create.

Don, you might try looking at the free level of wix.com websites. They look pretty easy to set up, though the free ones are not for commercial selling use. There's only so much you can expect to get for almost no money.

Send Me a Private Note Button


Design and Skin Customization

Ok, so I found a grey border setting that makes it disappear if i set it from the current 3px ...to 0.

See the new screenshot below.

Now i just have to figure out where to find this setting in my site (in a core .css file? skin .css file?... or eleswhere?)
Here is where that border is "inherited from"... I 'think', according to the right side pane:

span.sprite_icon_40.sprite_icon_black_40.email

Is that a place I can find and adjust that #7F7F7F colored "border width" to 0 ?
(I can download and tweak my .css files, but I don't know where to find this little border setting- I SEE it in the Inspector, and it makes the border disappear when I change it to 0 ...but then I don't know where to actually find it in order to permanently change it. 'Cause when i leave the Inspector the changes disappear along with it.

Attached is a screenshot of what I see in the Inspector when i click on the sprite/icon/button. I can't tell much about what I am looking at. -maybe you can spot something obvious?

Also, Nate here is a link to a member profile page on that site where you can see the button with the ugly border and off-center envelope image. (The image/button does FUNCTION correctly, taking me to a private message 'new message' window where I can write a PM to that particular profile member.)

Michael I'm going to watch that zipped video now... thank you, I --hope-- it helps me understand better. I think my age and late start in 'computering' works against me, but I do try!

Don, I don't know if your current JR site is on a JR-hosted server or not, but it wouldn't cost you much to do a TRIAL TEST by setting up a bare bones new JR site with the ESkin activated. I 'think' you could test it for free for a couple weeks or so.
Yes I understand that you might not be able to make it into the site you envision on your own, but if the SiteBuilder module works with ESkin skin, you might be able to get a few things tweaked, at least enough to know whether it'
s be worthwhile for you to pay someone to help you with further customization.
I'm talking about just picking a TEMPLATE/"layout" in ESkin, choosing your background color, maybe adding a few images of merchandise and your logo. Maybe I'm wrong but i think you could add additional pages to your site by using the Sitebuilder module.
---It might be worth a few hours of your time just to test it out.--- The worst that could happen is that it'd give you a better idea of what you can and can't do on your own. You might be able to do more and get further along than you think. (this coming from a non-coding person in her 60s, mind you).
The other part of what you said- yeah I agree that you wouldn't to be paying top dollar to someone unfamiliar with JR to build you a JR site- far better to get a reasonable job quote from someone on the JR support team- they know what they are doing and (per-hour) would do it way faster anyway.

I had been thinking a while back about doing this to sell some t-shirts. I myself never followed through on it. Using jr's ESkin would definitely be the way to go though.
