So I'm working on my first vero build and I'm I've got the components and knobs wired and some off board wiring going on as well, but I don't know how to wire the jacks.  The picture uses different jacks than what I'm using and I'm not sure how it'd apply.

This is the board layout

Any help or site to reference?  I searched around but couldn't find what I was looking for at all

do you have or could you make a continuity tester?

if not then a close visual inspection should confirm with open jacks such as those displayed.

Just plug a lead into them and visually inspect... all the metal is visible at all levels so you can EASILY see what touches tip and sleeve.

They are stereo jacks so you'll have two sleeve contacts, one high and one low, these are generally only used to "switch" on/off when plugged in by using the sleeve (GND) to break the circuit.
