Want to bring as much of the functionality from my old site to my new site as possible, with a small budget.
Mostly want the menu options from here: http://www.startree.tv/
To be here: http://startreetv1.ipage.com/

Beyond that all the different Artist templates from my old site are the same basically for every Artist quota. Want the same for the new site.

Please contact me with how much you would charge to these things.

Take a look at the header_menu_desktop.tpl (and the similar header_menu_mobile.tpl) template to see the menu structure. Its pretty straightforward and uses 'li' and 'ul' tags to create the menu and sub-menu items.
Remember that Jamroom4 and Jamroom5 work very differently some of your JR4 pages will line up with JR5 equivalents.

Novice myself-But If I were trying to add your present header to a specific page of your site I would first copy the header code I wanted to use and save it to a txt file named "header_new.tpl" and upload it to the skin I was using in the "templates" folder...( I will add an example attachment) Then I would open this page in site builder and remove the current header file and add this file in its place using
{jrCore_include template="header_new.tpl"}
This should add your old header to just this page on your site
If you are not using site builder then you would remove the header code and add the
{jrCore_include template="header_new.tpl"}
in its place
Then you would need to add the custom css for the header code you just added to your custom.css file ( if you have any...)
If its just the menu you want you should be able to do the same by copying the header_menu_desktop code and saving it to a tpl file called header_menu_new.tpl and calling it the same way as above
If your header or menu is built using smarty- then you would disregard my attachment and use the smarty from your old site?...

Like I said I am a novice and this may be way off but I thought I would have a stab at helping you-pls ignore if its no help

In reality the only thing not available is the menu, but site builder and media pro together generate too much padding and can leave a page looking weird. Once sitebuilder is out of beta I think a base skin with very little item padding should be the default for it.

WHO WANTS TO HELP REBUILD MY SITE?? I honestly don't want to worry about coding much of a darn thing. I want to do very little configuration, and just want my site back and working!

I have my Quotas set up pretty much, but I don't know how to use the Seamless Module to create lists and I honestly don't want to mess around with coding in the templates myself if I can help it.

Doubtful you will find anyone although I hope you do.
1 option that comes to mind concerning using seamless to create lists...you could switch skins to elastic or create a dummy site using it- then use site builder on that site to create the template code for ALL that stuff
If you have not seen it yet you just pretty much enter the basic info of what you want displayed and it will spit the template code out in the bottom of the editor for you...copy and paste it into your site
That part SHOULD work for you (I think)

@derrickhand300 , Thank you very much for your help! That idea sound promising, think I will give it a try to see what this site builder is all about if nothing else. Ideally, somebody who already knows what they are doing would just go through all my old templates and help to bring them up to date to work with the new system. I will check that out though, thanks.

So basically my best bet is probably to wait for this, yes? @douglas any idea what the eta is on this?
