No Volume Control in Mobile View


Using Jamroom

Yup - that seems to be it. I can't see the controls in the emulator but someone who has a smartphone confirmed it's working.

Maybe my attempts were working last night too, but because the emulator is not showing the buttons, I didn't know I was succeeding???

At any rate, thanks very much Brian, that's a "biggie" off my plate.

No Volume Control in Mobile View


Using Jamroom

Hi Brian,

Thanks - I'll try and let you know.

As I already indicated above, I changed that section to visible, and I also tried deleting that whole section, but both attempts failed to restore the volume control.

No Volume Control in Mobile View


Using Jamroom

brian:
It's by design - on a mobile phone you adjust the volume by turning the volume up and down on the device.

You can modify the audio player templates to suit your needs - they are in:

modules/jrAudio/templates

Jamroom uses jPlayer so you can find a comprehensive guide to customizing here:

<a href="http://jplayer.org/latest/developer-guide/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://jplayer.org/latest/developer-guide/</a>

Hope this helps!

I was up the whole night looking for the control and never did find it. I see this in the JPlayer Developer Guide.

noVolume †
Object : Defines the user agent blocklist, which contains regular expressions, which cause the volume controls to be hidden if a match is found.

The default object is:

[code] noVolume: {
ipad: /ipad/,
iphone: /iphone/,
ipod: /ipod/,
android_pad: /android(?!.*?mobile)/,
android_phone: /android.*?mobile/,
blackberry: /blackberry/,
windows_ce: /windows ce/,
iemobile: /iemobile/,
webos: /webos/,
playbook: /playbook/
}[/code}

However, I can't find the corresponding version of that the in the audio Module.

========================================================

I also found this in the jrAudio Dark Player CSS

[code] .jp-volume-bar .jp-mute .jp-unmute .jp-volume-max {
visibility:hidden;
} [/code]

I changed it to visible, even deleted it - still no volume buttons.

==============================================================

Is anyone able to tell me how to get volume controls working in mobile views.

How to Add A TinyMCE Box on an Edit button?


Design and Skin Customization

Yes, I understand that. It would be a Ningja innovation if done at all.

How to Add A TinyMCE Box on an Edit button?


Design and Skin Customization

Well maybe it can become standard in the Ningja skin to have some user editable spaces on the Home page and Profile Index.

It's something all Ningsters are used to having, and it feels very "limiting" to not be able to WYSIWYG design within spaces.

On the NingNova skin I hard coded a block of space just so I could write a basic welcome message. Many Ningsters would not be able to do such a thing, but would want to if they could.

I would even say it would be a "deal breaker" for many, as that ability is a "basic" requirement for site building .

No Volume Control in Mobile View


Using Jamroom

I for one would love to have a player that has more features, not just a different CSS look.

For instance, a "popout" embed code button, and social share buttons, so the player has a chance of going viral. Buy now buttons on the songs. Link backs to the artists profiles.

For a non programmer to do a substitution this way, is "daunting" to say the least. I hope a one click module install will come out at some point.

The player features I'm looking for already exist here - http://html5.svnlabs.com/

Design and Skin Customization

Thanks Michael... Not sure why Jamroom doesn't already have a module like that, since a "pop-out" WYSIWYG editor is done almost universally elsewhere.

However, I can live with the solution you suggest and maybe what I'm describing will be developed on Jamroom someday. Thanks...

How to Add A TinyMCE Box on an Edit button?


Design and Skin Customization

Hi Michael,

I want the profile owner to be able to edit it for themselves.

The profile biography is no longer sent to that space (top of profile index) in my network, it goes in the side column.

To me that is a much more logical place for it, since it is viewable no matter what landing page is chosen.

However, a similar set-up would work, except the edit box needs to be hidden on a button on the profile index itself, rather than in the admin panel.

It's not intuitive to go to a different location to input data. A hidden (on a button) WYSIWYG editor that controls the space right where it is located (top of profile index), is what I am shooting for.

How to Add A TinyMCE Box on an Edit button?


Design and Skin Customization

Hi Michael,

As a former Ningster, user editable spaces is one of the big things I miss.

For now I would be happy to have it in one specific area. The top of the profile index in Ningja (where the bio currently shows by default).

I have moved my bio under the profile pic (side column) because I think it's important to show it, no matter what one chooses as the default landing page.

So instead of the member writing in a text box in his admin section to fill that area with his bio, I want to put a hidden edit box there and give complete control of that space to the profile owner.

If a module has to be built that's way out of my league.
