New Hosting features and plans - "Jamroom Premium"

Announcements


Separating modules and skins would be useful, I think. As an example, I am currently looking at different skins now and it's more difficult when I have to wade through the modules to find them. The reverse would also be true for those who've already settled on a skin and are looking for modules.

Comparison of Forum Options?

Using Jamroom

I'm thinking in terms of having an organizational structure with forums and subforums (or maybe they're called nested forums).

For example, let's say you have an Entertainment forum. In that forum, you have subforums for Books, Music, Television and Movies. Each of those subforums may be further divided. So you might have a structure like this:

Entertainment forum
* Books forum
** Fantasy Novels forum
** Nonfiction forum
*** Biography forum
*** Historical forum
*** Political forum
** Romance Novels forum
* Movies forum
** Action/Adventure Movies forum
** Biographic Movies forum
** Romantic Comedies forum
* Music forum
** Classical Music forum
** Country Music forum
** Pop/Top 40 Music forum
** Rock 'n' Roll Music forum
* Television forum
** Dramas
** Reality TV
** Sitcoms

Getting Custom Fields to Show

Using Jamroom

That was easy. Thanks!

I just have to remember to clear the cache after making changes like this.

Comparison of Forum Options?

Using Jamroom

Hello,

Is there a comparison of forum options anywhere?

Last year, I had contacted presales support about what I was looking for and, in my notes, I have that I would need Profile Groups, Profile Group Pages and Profile Group Discussions modules. And also phpBB integration. I see there is a Forum module in the Marketplace, but I don't have that in my notes.

Is there a comparison somewhere of what each offers? The Marketplace descriptions don't seem detailed enough for me to figure out what I would need. I would need site-wide forums and subforums within forums. I don't know if that could be accomplished with some kind of profile hierarchy (if that's even possible) or if I need to integrate with phpBB. I'd like to avoid having to have phpBB integration because then you have two different systems from two different companies that you need to maintain as far as updates go. Would be easier if it could all be done with Jamroom without the phpBB integration.

Thanks!

Email Core Missing?

Installation and Configuration

mod_rewrite should be enabled. As far as I can tell, it is. But I've sent a message to my server admin to be sure.

Another question... Is there a way to get the content from the custom fields to show in the notification eMail sent to the admin?

Yes! That did it. Thanks!

Getting Custom Fields to Show

Using Jamroom

Hello,

I am trying to add custom fields to the Create Account form. I went to /user/signup and used the Form Designer to add the fields.

When I am logged in as admin, the new fields show up. I have them set as "Required" and "Active."

However, when I am not logged in and I go to the site as if I were a new user, the new fields do not show up on the Create Account form.

What do I need to do to get those fields to show?

Thanks!

Email Core Missing?

Installation and Configuration

Tried that. When I click the "Reload" button under "Action," I get a file not found error.

The error says: "The requested URL /roundcubeer/admin/info was not found on this server."

Email Core Missing?

Installation and Configuration

Hello,

I installed Jamroom 5 yesterday. The system check seems to show everything as fine and I didn't have any errors during the installation. However, when I click the "Email Core" option in the ACP, I get a file not found error from the server.

Not sure where to look for the source of the problem.

Thanks!
