Hi @SteveX.

I followed this video to give ujCategories a first pass. http://www.jamroom.net/ultrajam/youtube/21/ujcategories-intro-genres

What I noticed is, I have a bunch of audio migrated from my JR4 site, I have approx 14 genres or so. So, when I follow your setup, I only get 1 genre come through which is listed as "Category: Tech" in the categories config.

So I'm wondering - Does the module differentiate between audio that was migrated vs. actually uploaded into the JR5 system? It seems like it's only looking for audio that was uploaded through the jrAudio module.

How can we make it look at imported audio too?

I know you wanted to try to use ujTogether to test that too, so just let me know how we should connect.

Thanks,
Brian

I doubt that it will do an import, It wasnt designed to do that.

Is the name of your category "Category: Tech"? If so, rename your category to "Tech"

The category is named "Tech".

Hmmm darn most of my audio is coming in from the import.
So even though audio_genre is populated it looks somewhere else?

I'm not familiar with what this module does, but 'audio_genre' is a valid field name and what the import process puts JR4 genres into, so if there is another field that the import needs to populate, I'd be interested to know.

There isnt another field to be populated.

There is also inline help, but please keep posting here - not many people have installed this yet so I'm really interested to follow the process and see how I can make it easier/better documented.

If you set it up like in this screenshot, then on the main /categories/browse page you will see your cat set and can should have rock, pop and funk pages, click on the links to go to each page.

I'll try that way. I used ujCategories_get_audio_genres on my test.

Thanks!

This is what your cat set should then look like:

ujCategories_get_audio_genres returns the 'audio_genre' and 'audio_genre_url'

If you put that function name into the "categories" field it will get all of your audio_genre options for you. Just the function name, not the whole function, so just
ujCategories_get_audio_genres

Then in the module config, set Linkify Genres to categories and that will convert the links on jrAudio audio genres to link back into your categories pages. That might depend on your skin, its an untested feature.

I don't want to try a ujTogether session right now cos I'm saving my bandwidth to download a couple of de la soul albums later on (back catalogue is free today, and I'm on a daily mobile broadband cap). Could do that over the weekend though?

Hey Paul, I haven't seen it myself, but it sounds like there is no audio_genre_url being created on import.

@iLoveHouseMusic has to save an audio item in order for the audio_genre_url to be added. jrAudio creates the audio_genre_url on each create save and update save of an audio item, so it is always there, much liek the title_url.

Your right. I've just added it into the jrImport module (also for video imports).
It may be worth build a simple script to run through the audio and video data stores added it in. I'll do that.
