I have just installed JomSocial on this website for guitar instruction:https://quinnguitar.com/member-areaTim does instruction both in studio and remotely via Skype. Up until now he has had his students email videos of their practice sessions to him for review, but our goal now is for students to be able to upload videos to their JS page for him to review.As we know, JS allows four privacy...
JomSocial TIPS & TRICKSHello. Is it any option in backend to disable video search for all users (not only for guests)? I can't find it. Or I need to edit template/css by myself? Thanks.
Guys, I'm not sure if I posted this in the past, but we just launched the music side of our site and I was able to build it out via jreviews but integrate into the jomsocial profile page so it appears on the surface as it's part of the component, but I can tell anybody who wants to know how I did it what exactly I did to get it this way...
tweaked community frontpage for non-members (the main image is actually a moving video in the background) the entire site is built using twitter bootstrap 3 which makes it so much easier to find other cool snippets and integrate them into joomla without even having to create a module or plugin...
For those of you that are using readybytes' Profile Complete, I made it more UI friendly and modern looking so I can send you the modified module files to use if you are interested...

Hey guys I created a modified module template from the hellome module to act as a dashboard interface for our community users... if anybody is interested in this, let me know and I can post details how I did it...
Does anyone have any tips or tricks to help me figure out why my photos on my main stream go "single file" down the stream instead of "grouping" like it does on here?
BEFORE YOU UPGRADE TO JOMSOCIAL 4.1 - Please take the time to read the release information on JS 4.1.

I was one of a few who installed the RC Release Candidate on several sites that I manage and know for a fact you will need to redo many of your JS modules - not all but most. Take the time to document your current JS installation BEFORE you upgrade. Once the upgrade is done you will lose your layouts making the replication very difficult and time consuming. Other than the modules, using JS4.1RC has been amazing. I am about to do the upgrades to 4.1 stable release. Kudos to the team for such an amazing job! This is still THE BEST social option for Joomla by far. Show more
New in JomSocial is the WATERMARK feature where every picture posted on your social is watermarked with a single logo. As a social network admin, what are your legal considerations or concerns of having users post copyrighted pictures on your network and your watermark ending up on said pic? You really have no control over what content gets posted on your network. Thoughts?
In the new JomSocial 4.1RC I changed the CSS to show the video thumbnails as full player size and the playback in the stream is also the same size. 620px by 340px appears to work well with my layout. This sample is a standard YouTube link. What do you think?
hello, please the notification message that users get after their friend request has been accepted is not displaying completely on the notification bar. for example if john accepts my friend request i get the phrase you re now freinds with. and thats where it stops the name of the friend does not show. here is an image that further explains the issue. Thanks
Why does the admin have to see the covers and profile photos of their users in our photo gallery? I never understood this.

While I appreciate the new stacked module positions, it did not really address the issue with GROUPS. The EVENTS are buried into a tab and not clearly visible. Makes it very difficult to promote an event when hidden behind a tab as a secondary item. Same with important ANNOUNCEMENTS. Those appear buried to the group member.

The EVENTS are buried into a tab and not clearly visible. Makes it very difficult to promote an event when hidden behind a tab as a secondary item. Same with important ANNOUNCEMENTS. Those appear buried to the group member. Because these are baked into the code, we cannot reassign them to a stacked position. How can I un-tab these two important group informational items? Has anyone come up with a work-around? Code mod? As you can see I have VERY active groups (5,000 plus) and the EVENT feature is frequently used and now my members are asking where they are. The tabs are confusing them. Thanks Show more
Have you ever thought about having fixed module in its sidebar_1 and Sidebar_ 2 or js_sidebar_ frontpage?
Not to let the vacant sidebar when you browse to the bottom of the page I was digging the JED several times until you find one that did what I wanted.

The good thing is I gathered two modules. A module has the random function ie can place multiple modules in it and as photo module and when the page is refreshed goes on to show a video module, so I gathered with a pegasojo module.
In the video you see the result! - feeling innovative

Does anyone know where to edit the TIME ZONE designations or wording? They are HORRENDOUS! For the western hemisphere they make no sense at all. Thanks.
