If an artist uploads an album with 15 songs then all 15 of them show up on the Newest song page. This happens to be my home page as well.
Is is possible to only have the album show up and not the entire 15 songs?
Current setup is like this
artist1 song1
artist2 song1
artist2 song2
artist2 song3
artist2 etc
artist3 song1

Would prefer
Artist1 song1
Artist2 Album
Artist3 Song1
artist3 song2

If not is there code to just limit an artist to show 2 songs on home page?
They could upload 15 into an album but only 2 would show on home page
Like this
Artist1 song1
Artist2 Album song1

my posts seem to be getting cut off
code to limit only 2 songs on the chart would be ok too

The only way I can think of to do this right now would be to group_by the audio album - so in your jrCore_list code, you would add:

group_by="audio_album"

This would only show one song for each album.

Let me know if that helps.

Whatever page you want to make the change on - i.e. if you are looking at:

yoursite.com/music

then it would be:

skins/ActiveSkin/music.tpl

Look for the {jrCore_list ... } function call.

Hope this helps!

Where are you trying to do this?

Profile page or elsewhere?

music.tpl
http://versionist.net/

look about 1/2 way down the page and you will see all the songs from 1 album that fill up the chart.
FYI the music chart is home page

Okay, in the music.tpl, find this:

                                {if isset($_conf.jrProJam_require_images) && $_conf.jrProJam_require_images == 'on'}
                                    {if isset($_post.search_area) && $_post.search_area == 'audio_genre'}
                                        {jrCore_list module="jrAudio" order_by=$order_by search1="audio_genre like `$_post.search_string`" template="music_row.tpl" require_image="audio_image" pagebreak=$_conf.jrProJam_default_pagebreak page=$_post.p}
                                    {elseif !empty($_post._1)}
                                        {jrCore_list module="jrAudio" order_by=$order_by template="music_row.tpl" require_image="audio_image" search="audio_title like `$_post._1`%" pagebreak=$_conf.jrProJam_default_pagebreak page=$_post.p}
                                    {else}
                                        {jrCore_list module="jrAudio" order_by=$order_by template="music_row.tpl" require_image="audio_image" pagebreak=$_conf.jrProJam_default_pagebreak page=$_post.p}
                                    {/if}
                                {else}
                                    {if isset($_post.search_area) && $_post.search_area == 'audio_genre'}
                                        {jrCore_list module="jrAudio" order_by=$order_by search1="audio_genre like `$_post.search_string`" template="music_row.tpl" pagebreak=$_conf.jrProJam_default_pagebreak page=$_post.p}
                                    {elseif !empty($_post._1)}
                                        {jrCore_list module="jrAudio" order_by=$order_by template="music_row.tpl" search="audio_title like `$_post._1`%" pagebreak=$_conf.jrProJam_default_pagebreak page=$_post.p}
                                    {else}
                                        {jrCore_list module="jrAudio" order_by=$order_by template="music_row.tpl" pagebreak=$_conf.jrProJam_default_pagebreak page=$_post.p}
                                    {/if}
                                {/if}

and change it to this:

                                {if isset($_conf.jrProJam_require_images) && $_conf.jrProJam_require_images == 'on'}
                                    {if isset($_post.search_area) && $_post.search_area == 'audio_genre'}
                                        {jrCore_list module="jrAudio" order_by=$order_by search1="audio_genre like `$_post.search_string`" template="music_row.tpl" require_image="audio_image" pagebreak=$_conf.jrProJam_default_pagebreak page=$_post.p}
                                    {elseif !empty($_post._1)}
                                        {jrCore_list module="jrAudio" order_by=$order_by template="music_row.tpl" require_image="audio_image" search="audio_title like `$_post._1`%" pagebreak=$_conf.jrProJam_default_pagebreak page=$_post.p}
                                    {else}
                                        {jrCore_list module="jrAudio" order_by=$order_by group_by="audio_album" template="music_row.tpl" require_image="audio_image" pagebreak=$_conf.jrProJam_default_pagebreak page=$_post.p}
                                    {/if}
                                {else}
                                    {if isset($_post.search_area) && $_post.search_area == 'audio_genre'}
                                        {jrCore_list module="jrAudio" order_by=$order_by search1="audio_genre like `$_post.search_string`" template="music_row.tpl" pagebreak=$_conf.jrProJam_default_pagebreak page=$_post.p}
                                    {elseif !empty($_post._1)}
                                        {jrCore_list module="jrAudio" order_by=$order_by template="music_row.tpl" search="audio_title like `$_post._1`%" pagebreak=$_conf.jrProJam_default_pagebreak page=$_post.p}
                                    {else}
                                        {jrCore_list module="jrAudio" order_by=$order_by group_by="audio_album" template="music_row.tpl" pagebreak=$_conf.jrProJam_default_pagebreak page=$_post.p}
                                    {/if}
                                {/if}

There are actually only two places to add the group_by parameter.

Hope this helps,
Douglas

that did not fix the issue. if you create 2 songs in the same album them both appear on the home page,
i reset everything as well and it they still appeared.

after further review of this it is only putting one song on the music.tpl page
you can compare www.versionist.net/music
to www.versionist.net/music1

In reality i would want this to be 2. This should match a module brian is creating that would say quota x can upload 2 per day. So 2 show up on charts.
Quota x (labels) can upload 15 a day for their album but only 2 show up on charts.

The other issue is if they do not put in an album nothing shows up under current code your provided.
So i assume i would need to make album name required?

Yes, you would need to make the album field required since your grouping the audio by albums.

To show two of each album, you would have to do something custom. You might pass that along to Brian since he is creating you another module for the uploads.

Hope this helps,
Douglas

Douglas,
Can the music.tpl just show quota id = 3 ?
I can always create music1.tpl and that shows quota id = 4 and apply the rule you sent me to that tpl file and make some new nav links..
Can the quota_id="4" string be added to jrAudio?
or do i need to add something else

Yes, you can use quota_id="#" on any jrCore_list function, where # is the actual ID of the quota.

Hope this helps,
Douglas
