Skin Templates
Design and Skin Customization

Is it possible to call a "module template" using {jrCore_include} directly into a site-builder page using Template Code?

Currently, I have several pages using this template that I have added into the skin directory:
{jrCore_include template="t_electricians.tpl"}

However, periodically for no known reason, that tpl file is being deleted from the skin directory. This is important because I have determined, from a time investment standpoint, that it is not financially feasible to manage a custom skin with all of the updates that come out. So I need to use an out-of-the-box skin. My modifications are easy to manage and compare (within the skin template manager), but new template files that I add are being deleted. Of course, I expect this to happen when I update the skin, but these files are being deleted randomly.

So anyways, I am tired of fighting with it and just want to create a module where I can manage these additional templates. Is this possible?

Creating Open Graph tags with Meta Tag Manager in JR
Using Jamroom

Ahhh, that was the detail that I did not understand.

Therefore, the workaround that I added above is the only thing that can currently be done for pages made with site builder.

Correct?

PatriaCo:
I added this into meta.tpl in order for things to work more dynamically.

Creating Open Graph tags with Meta Tag Manager in JR
Using Jamroom

In the example I added above, all of those variables are available to meta.tpl. One of the main reasons for bringing this up is due to the documentation: https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/documentation/modules/2914/meta-tag-manager

The tip that I added 2years ago is no longer valid. However, I wish the meta-tag module still offered this flexibility.

Thanks :)

Profile Tweaks Module Connection
Jamroom Developers

Although I have selected my custom module to show as the front page on Profile Tweaks it is not doing so.

I assume this is because I am missing an attribute in my module's include.php, but I am not sure.

Is there something I need to add to allow my module's item_index to be a profile's index page?

Thanks!

Sorry for the hasty statement.

When creating a new meta tag here:

/metatag/browse

The Tag Content prints, {$var} literally as {$var}. The module is not replacing {$var} with the variable data.

Twitter uses: name=
But everything else needs to be: property=

This module needs to go back to the shop for an upgrade, as it can no longer use {$variables}

Here is an example SEO markup from a WP website:

List of Pages Created using Site Builder
Using Jamroom

How can I make a list of pages created using site builder? Can I somehow access the menu editor list?

I have several pages built with similar themes that I would like to group and display on a page in a list.

Example: Coffee Shop Music - (several locations)
Outdoor Venue - (several locations)

I am grouping several profiles per page by location, but now I want to make a page that lists the pages by category.

Thanks!

Multiple Sub-domain Access to One JR Database?
Using Jamroom

I haven't found a way to give a member (who is paying for "domain profile" services) enough control over a skin's design to satisfy them. I was thinking that the number of options available in each skin's front page would be enough to help meet the need.

Again, the thought is to give them the equivalent of a "profile skin" to go with there "profile domain" but keep them with our community database.

Multiple Sub-domain Access to One JR Database?
Using Jamroom

Ultimately, it is all about the index page and the way it introduces the skin. So much is won or lost in gaining new members, based upon the few seconds that you have their attention, during that first impression (that first page). Being able to market based on interest (videos, music, blogs) is HUGE. JR is just so broad, it is impossible to market all the benefits, with just one landing page. Managing these from directories is fine, and I really want to stay on JRhosting.
