ningja skin 1.0.16 changelog
Ning To Jamroom 

jrNingja
Ningja Skin changelog Version 1.0.16: 
- Change: Changed Tag Cloud height on the index page. 
- Change: Moved align-left image class to the image CSS file instead of the header CSS file. 
- Change: Changed the float order for the desktop menu so the Site Builder menu items get created in order. 
- Bug Fix: Profile sidebar could still show on forum pages even with Forum Profile URL set

Just so I know where to start looking for these changes ...

Tag cloud height in index.tpl?
Left-align image class in header.css?
Float order in header.css?
Bug fix - profile_sidebar.tpl?

So I don't need to do a module by module search.

TIA.

PS.

Although there have been discussions about how to make it easier for us to incorporate these changes into cloned skins, it occurs to me that one way to do this until a programmatic solution is arrived at is to add the location to the description.

location lot a signup question or editable field
Ning To Jamroom

paul:
Sorry, yes, three profile location fields are imported from Ning members, profile_location, profile_country and profile_zip. I guess these fields are hard coded for every Ning member on every Ning site, whereas 'signup questions' are set by Ning admins so that is why the end up as user fields in JR.

Paul - The User Account form designer

will not let me add a field that is not prefixed user_

Ning To Jamroom

paul:
Yes - There can be a 'location' entry in the Ning member archives so if that is the case it is imported as 'profile_location'. To make it editable use the form designer to create a 'profile_location' field in the profile account update form.

Paul - profile_location not user_profile_location?

Every other field in that form is pre-pended by user_ so just checking. This is the country, and is two characters, correct? For input and validation purposes.

Make a Group Read-Only?
Design and Skin Customization

Paul:

Brilliant! Sounds like it might want to be something that gets added to the module the next time it's updated.


But it's only half the battle - it stops members from commenting on existing posts.

Where do I go to keep anyone from adding a new post (other than me, of course)? If a member is not an admin, then the + sign to add a new discussion.

I have pretty much deprecated Chrome for daily work, even though GMail works better in Chrome. I am bopping back and forth between Firefox and Safari to test things (multiple user accounts in different quotas), doing most (but not all) of my behind the scenes work in Firefox, but some in Safari.

Two different monitors ... little things can be hard to spot.

lol

Thanks for the update on this and the patience all the way around with my not-improving-rapidly-enough-for-me coding skills.

What I do appreciate is the back and forth that enables me learn how and where to look for potential answers. The "Order By Last ..." thread that I just closed is good example of that.

https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/forum/23970/order-by-last-updated-new-comment-on-group-discussions#last

It was as I was composing a reply that I did a very close inspection of the code and realized where the problem was, a simple syntax error. Something someone more experienced would probably have noticed right away, but it escaped me completely.

Have you customized the jrGroupDiscuss/templates/item_index.tpl file?

Ahhhhhhh. A close look sees syntax error on the order_by - using non-existent names for things.

— instead of –

The first is shift-option-underscore the second is option-underscore. Depending on the editor and browser you are using these get rendered identically.

Fixed. Works. Closing this down.

IDs mixed up...?
Ning To Jamroom

By Groups I mean Group Discussions, not the site-wide forum. I posted yesterday, Order by on Group Discussions. In looking at this I realized that the URLs were malformed and that was more important than fixing the order_by.

Is this also related to the URL mixup in Groups that I found yesterday?
