The features of this template can be customized by adding the following options to the Connections shortcode.
Here’s an example shortcode that can be used for that changes the number of entries displayed per page, sets the pagination to be displayed at the bottom of the list and hides both the anniversary and birthday fields. As you see in this example shortcode, you only need to add the options you wish to change from the default setting and you can mix and match the options to suit your needs.
