How To Move Groups From Profile Pages to Stand Alone Pages

My Groups are currently only displayed in user profiles- I want to either move them to stand alone pages I have created or ADD them to the stand alone pages...

Are there any Docs for doing this?

Here is an example group I want t move from inside my profile page to a stand alone page

Anyone here for hire on this? I am really sick of messing with it- frustrated that things that should just be copy/paste from one location to another involves 3 days to find a solution
If you would like to work on this and have the experience to fix it please let me know

Here is the link I am trying to move the smarty code to

Groups need to belong to a profile. They are not designed to work without a profile. You can use the
functions in the groups item_detail.tpl page to disable the profile surround, but they need to be on a profile so the save functionalities work correctly.

--edit--
suggest you make a profile called 'old-school-oilfield' and put the groups in there. Put the profile in its own quota and use the jrExcludeProfile to stop it turning up in lists of stuff:

Ok Im ready to go with the mainstream on this and quit swimming against the current...
I have added
{jrProfile_disable_header}
{jrProfile_disable_sidebar}

Which is working to disable the header- but has no effect on the left column of my profile- if I could get that removed I would be a happy camper

Here is a place where I am using it testing

Is there a different code to specify the left column?
thanks again

There was some update or setting that removed that side profile stuff from groups altogether. You may have not applied it on your site. The JR Team will know which thing. The result will be something like this, here's a screenshot of one of the groups created by me on my site....you can see the little "strumelia>groups>earlymusic" chain still there under the group title, but it's subtle. And there is no sidebar at all on the page, or in any pages clicked to within my groups.

I apologize for the frustration, but using a 100% custom skin like you are using, which is not even based on one of our designs means you're going to have to maintain it and update it to suit your needs - nothing is going to be "automatic" - just an FYI.

Also - I've been programming for over 20 years and RARELY does "cut and paste" ever work properly the first time

Thanks Brian
My frustration is only that my site is BOUND. To someone else's idea of how it should work and not my own ie Profile centric or being to that my groups are going to display in profiles "period" other than that I was just asking for the code if I need to pay you for your trouble please let me know
Thanks again

No worries

Jamroom is a profile centered system at it's heart - all we can do is try to make it LOOK like something is not part of a profile (which we can usually do). I don't say that to frustrate anyone, just want to be sure we're on the same page.

I think this is doable - we just need to identify your profile templates that are "including" your sidebar and then add in the template code I sent you in your ticket.

Let me know if that helps.

Thanks!

Thanks-I got it and appreciate it
Just to be clear-I do not have a "100%" custom skin.
My site was imported to and originally built on Ninja- then template injection module was used to adapt it to my custom skins column layout
Every Template-if it was in Ningja is now in my "custom skin" if I had "profile_item_detail.tpl" in Ningja then I have it the same in my skin....I have to edit that template code just like everyone else with a Jamroom skin and sometimes ( often) I screw it up or break it....but its not the skins fault or that its not a "jamroom skin"...the fault is usually 99% my own.

I have learned a lot here the last few months and this is something I m "SURE" on...

Moving to my skin involved changing the column layout terms so my skin could understand it.. then it was just a matter of installing my skins css and js which makes it display all the fancy crap its capable of....with the exception of a problem with modal windows which michael solved for me ( they were too similar in names) everything else has been stuff that I tore up

Now I understand my skin does not get updates meant for Jamroom skins because its named different so I would not have received the code you sent me ( which I appreciate you sending) That's really all I was asking here..and expressing some frustration that I was not able to do something I felt should be simple

We are all here (some of us day and night) because we are obsessed with it and love it-but there are going to be frustrations along the way

Thanks again I ALWAYS appreciate it

I'm glad to hear that - my goal is to (hopefully) eliminate as many of those frustrations as possible - so hopefully we come up with something that works for you.
