Adding Lyrics to Song Pages (pop-out from link)


Design and Skin Customization

Hi Paul,

I'll try that in my development site and see how it works out. Thanks.

Adding Lyrics to Song Pages (pop-out from link)


Design and Skin Customization

I've been asked how to add written lyrics to songs.

My suggestion would be a place in the upload form where lyrics can optionally be added, and "IF" they are added, a link is created under the song's player that says Lyrics. If clicked, the lyrics are displayed in a "pop-out" window.

Can someone incorporate that into the Ningja skin, because it seems like a good idea but is beyond my ability to implement.

Search - Exclusively in a Particular Profile?


Design and Skin Customization

First off, I should explain in some of my mapped domains I remove the network menu, giving the person a "stand-a-lone" website, or at least the illusion of one.

Secondly, a specific example is here - http://thisrockrs.com/video

Now this profile owner wants to import youtube videos by the hundreds, but have them searchable from his page. Meaning by title or producer, up would pop a video 10 pages back, with a search from this page.

Even a general search just for the profile itself, instead of the network, would be close enough. I believe it needs to be installed in the profile's header (title box) to be on all its pages (see attached pic).

Brian says it can be done, but his instructions are too cryptic for me to implement.

Is anyone able to flesh this out a little, so that a "noob" can catch on?

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

You just need to add an if/else in the index.tpl - if the $_profile_id is equal to the one you want, add an additional search in - i.e.

search2="_profile_id = 5"

Where "5" would be the profile_id of the thisrockrs.com profile.

I got this in my email.

Does it mean that the map functionality we have now will be lost, or is it talking about something that doesn't affect Jamroom.

sitebuilder and ningja bugs persist


Using Jamroom

To switch back and forth you must have the code for both installed into the skin.

Also, let the Integrity Check do the work, you simple disable and enable the module(s) and let it run.

Looking at a save of one of my old skins, I believe this is required to get a Sitebuilder 1 page to show. If this is there, you enable the site builder 1 modules and disable the sitebuilder 2, then run integrity check. To revert do the opposite.

 {* Site Builder *}
{if jrCore_module_is_active('jrPanel') && jrCore_module_is_active('jrMenu') && jrCore_module_is_active('jrWidget')}

<div id="container">

{* show a panel on this page *}
{jrPanel_display name="index"}

</div>

{else}

Sorry i can't be much more help than that at this time, I've been delaying an update to my radio schedule for months while tied up with skin/sitebuilder issues.

Now I'm finally able to move forward on those scheduling issues and simultaneously build the infrastructure with Sitebuilder 2.

Going to tie me up for a while though.

Combined audio 'require image' code question


Design and Skin Customization

Hi Michael,

Success!!! The first search string gave a white page, but the second one worked.

I have 170 pages of uploaded songs (with pictures), mixed with 12 pages of Soundlouds, for a total of 1,820 songs with pictures displayed.

145 pages, or 1,450 uploaded songs (with no pictures) are being screened out.

This is my working code:

 <div class="block_content">
       {jrSeamless_list modules="jrAudio,jrSoundCloud" search="audio_image_size > 0 || soundcloud_title LIKE %" order_by="audio_title random" pagebreak=10 page=$_post.p pager=true}
    </div>

Combined audio 'require image' code question


Design and Skin Customization

Ok - the error is gone but it's not showing any soundclouds, just uploaded songs.

I assume because there is something wrong with the search criteria???

Combined audio 'require image' code question


Design and Skin Customization

Hi Michael,

I did it without the dots like this:

{jrSeamless_list modules="jrAudio,jrSoundcloud" search="audio_image_size > 0,soundcloud_title LIKE %"}

Also with page break:

{jrSeamless_list modules="jrAudio,jrSoundcloud" search="audio_image_size > 0,soundcloud_title LIKE %" pagebreak=10 page=$_post.p pager=true}

Also since there is a funny assign mods thingy in the original, I tried stripping that out of the division. So plunking Paul's code in the original was like this.

<div class="block_content">
        {jrCombinedAudio_get_active_modules assign="mods"}
        {if strlen($mods) > 0}{jrSeamless_list modules="jrAudio,jrSoundcloud" search="audio_image_size > 0,soundcloud_title LIKE %" pagebreak=10 page=$_post.p pager=true}
{elseif jrUser_is_admin()}
            No active audio modules found!
        {/if}
    </div>
          

Since that wasn't working i tried this:


<div class="block_content">
       {jrSeamless_list modules="jrAudio,jrSoundcloud" search="audio_image_size > 0,soundcloud_title LIKE %" pagebreak=10 page=$_post.p pager=true}
    </div>
          

Then I tried some ad hoc stuff just guessing from the supplied documentation, but got no where.

I just don't know enough to make educated guesses as to what will work.
