identity crisis (had no better name for this topic)

this is a lil bit of a problem
and one im sure you can fix in upcoming releases but heres the situation
and i might be wrong about it but this is how its looking to me now
all the nings main site data is dumping into my main admin profile
i think anyway
so i changed the name of profile1 to dreadlocks forums
and placed a link to it in the menu
then created a profile..soaringeagle i figured id use to post under
i swit5ch to soaringeagle i still see 2 dreadlocks forums in the menu 1 the link i placed thats visible to all including logged out the other beingmy account
now when i click the link to post on the dreadslocks forums it posts as dreadlocks forums
additionaly al,l my posts from ning are imported as dreadlocks forums

i know im doing this wrong
and therss gotta be a better way but how
im very well known a big chunk of trafic come from searching my name
my nanmes gotta stay attached to my posts but the forums gotta be in a dreadlocks forum

do i need the ning skin?
it seems crazy to spendanbother hundred bucks after spending so much already whebn the only thing in the bundle that i dont have already is the skin

but if thats what i need then thats what i need
its just i need a way to have the main community up front and still have my own identity still attached to my posts

how do i manage this

Not sure I completely follow, but I have set up a community profile which has the forums, issue tracker and docs enabled. For this profile I modified the templates to hide the profile name box and menu.

so in essence my forums look like this

http://tinypic.com/r/121zgyh/8

The only issue I face now with this setup is with the issue tracker, it doesn't currently allow anyone other than the profile owner to add bugs, feature requests.

Forgot to add, if your purchasing through your admin marketplace you only pay for the elements of bundles you don't already own.

thats the profile forum that is not the ning imported discussions

The bright side I guess is it's only a one-time purchase, right?- then you own the modules forever and can experiment/modify them as you please... as opposed to us paying and paying and paying every single month to Glammode, forever and ever...

We do support PayPal, just not through the Marketplace (which uses Stripe) - if you purchase the module here on Jamroom.net (from the marketplace page) you can use PayPal - it gets added to your account just like purchasing it through the Marketplace - you just then refresh your Marketplace on your Jamroom site and you should see the "purchase" button change to an "install" button.

Hope this helps!
