Please could somebody help

1) i really have great difficultly understanding the http://www.joomlathat.com/documentation/music-collection/artist-profile-in-music-collection-21 document, where is template details section - illustrated in the following text (To CREATE this module position on your template (a must, if you want to use it), open your tempalteDetails.xml file, on your template directory. There, add a new module position, called muscol_artist_stats, and you'll be ready to go! like this:, I am trying to duplicate the layout you have on the songs, albums and artists page so require all the relevant modules to be created to allow this, so if you are able to show me how to do one, i am able to do the rest.

2) Also having problems with the JWPLAYER - all that appears Task queue failed at step 5:playlist could not be loaded: Error 1090

I am sorry for asking these questions, probably asked a thousand times but unable to find the solution on the forum.

Urgently needed

Will provide details to the backend if you provide me with the means of sending them to in a secure way - i feel you would probably be able to solve the problems in a few minutes.

thanks in advance

David Barnes

    hello!

    1) well, as a matter of fact, in the newer versions of Joomla you don't even have to create those positions in the template file. forget about this. all you need to is type the module positions indicated (like.. "muscol_artist_stats") in the field "position" when you're creating the module..

    2) hmm.. must be some missconfiguration. could you send a link to the site? support@ joomlathat.com

    Having the same problem as 2). What was the solution? For me, the player is not showing at all on the main page. I have the option to open the player in a new windows, but there, I get the same error as the thread's creator.

      the problem in your case is that for some reason, when you "add a song to playlist", there's a 301 Redirect. do you know why? this is not normal.

      Actually, yes. When I installed Joomla 3, I placed it in the "beta" sub-folder for testing purposes. That way, the visitors had the old (2.5) website while I could work out any errors in the new version. After the beta was good enough for public presentation, my web host recommended me to add a permanent redirect from /home to /home/beta.The index.php file in my home folder now looks like this:

      Can it be this issue that causes the error? I guess moving the site "one step down" to the /home directory would cause even more errors...

    The code looks like this. It was deleted in my comment.
    <?php
    Header( "HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently" );
    Header( "Location: http://www.rodebyskolorkester.se/beta" );
    ?>

    yes, this is what's causing the error.
    in this case what you need to do is to configure music collection's system plugin, and in the "subfolder" parameter, you need to put "beta"

    Thank you for your answer! Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to work. There are two parts of the problem:
    When loading the frontpage, the module for the player doesn't show. The space for it is there, but no content. I get the option to open the player in a new window.
    That leads us to problem two. After adding beta in the sub-folder field (see picture) the player seems to load just fine in IE but not in Chrome. I'm not sure why. In Chrome I still get the error message mentioned abobe. Would it help if I mailed you some temporary log-in details?

      Almost forgot; I tried "beta", "/beta" and "beta/" with no apparent difference.

    When I check the code (view source) in IE and Chrome I can't find any difference. Still, the two browsers seem to read the player differently... Strange!

    hello,

    but.. are you clicking on the "add to playlist" button first? I mean, you need to add some song into the playlist first...

    This is what I'm trying to do (see movie clip). In Ljudarkiv (Swedish for sound archive, set as MC main oage in menu config) I try to put a player so my visitors will be able to play songs from there. I understood from the introduction that this could be done? As you can see, there ais a "placeholder" for the player, and the option to open the player in a new window. When doing so, I get the error.

    If I click an artist or a song, the player is there and works perfectly.

    Is all this because of me missing to create playlists? In that case, send an invoice for extended support to me... ;-)

    Edit: Can't see the attached avi file. The file can be found at www.rodebyskolorkester.se/error.avi

    hello!

    hehe don't worry my friend :)

    yes, you need to add something to the playlist... otherwise it is simply empty, there's nothing to play...

      OK, thanks! Then just one question remains: Is it possible to set a playlists as default, so the player loads directly when you open the main page? In that case, how?

    I've just uploaded a new version of the jwplayer module (version 2.3.5) which allows you to define a playlist ID to load as default, if there's nothing else loaded.
    you can download it and install it :)
