Starting blog view count problem

Design and Skin Customization

I have succesfully added a blog view count to one Jamroom website earlier and now I am doing same thing to another one, but running into trouble. It has been several years, so not sure what I am missing.

As per this thread https://www.jamroom.net/the-jamroom-network/forum/suggestions/42409/item-view-count I have added...


...to blog modules item_detail.tpl template.

Saved changes and cleared caches.

I was remembering the count would start automatically and "blog_view_count" would appear in the datastore item after first view, but it is not happening.

What I might be missing?

Chrome and Firefox going to versions 100, any problem for Jamroom?

Using Jamroom

Could this cause any problems with Jamroom?

"In the coming weeks, Google’s Chrome browser, Mozilla’s Firefox browser, and Microsoft’s Edge browser will all hit version 100. These milestone releases may sound exciting, but they also have the potential to cause havoc across the internet. As developers for all three of the browsers warn, some websites might break when they attempt to parse user-agent strings containing a three-digit version number. Therefore, all three companies are now trying to mitigate the impact before version 100 rolls out later this year."

How to easily figure out which .tpl to edit?

Design and Skin Customization

Thanks for infos, this helps a lot .

How to easily figure out which .tpl to edit?

Design and Skin Customization

For example I just had to edit the activity.tpl in forum module, because it came up with errors in Google Search Console.

Page url like https://example.com/forum/activity/10/username/p=2

In the source code for the page, the activity.tpl name does not come up and neither that it is from Forum module. (header.tpl, meta.tpl etc are showing as usual)

Figured the template out from the url, but with some core templates it is not that easy.

Thanks, that is very useful.

How to easily figure out which .tpl to edit?

Design and Skin Customization

I don't do much editing and part of it is that I have a hard time figuring out which .tpl to edit, so when I have to do something, it becames a chore.

And when done seldom, it is always a new learning process.

How you guys that do it frequently identify the right .tpl?

I have the thing enabled that puts the .tpl info in the source code, but that does not seem to help that much with module .tpls.

Adding more social network options?

Jamroom Developers

The available social network links in:
acp > skins > skinname > global config > social networks

Is there plans to ads more options?

Or does it need to be done to each skin separately?

Maybe add Instagram and TikTok?

And I think Google+ was taken down, so that option could be deleted?

tracking number of members posting PLUS number of posts in total each month?

Ning To Jamroom

These would be good additions to the Dashboard, would give nice info to compare with Daily and Monthly Active Users.

360 degree images for Embed Local Media?

Jamroom Developers

For example here
https://www.facebook.com/Paintball.fi/photos/rpp.245931575429925/2498227836866943/?type=3&theater
Facebook has allowed 360 photos (and some 3D photos also) for some time now.
If uploaded now 360 photo will be displayed as "flat" two dimensional in Jamroom.

Jamroom Developers

Having the ability to add 360 images to image galleries would also be nice.

Currently there is no way to display them with Jamroom, so using them means sending users to other websites .
