    Hi there,

    I’d like to link the profiles on the about page (link given) to the Directory page I’ve set up (http://marsinnovation.koazoa.com/directory). I don’t want the extended profiles to open on the About page.

    Is there a way for this to be done?

    Thanks!

    @ Amanda

    Apologies, but I am not really understanding the question… could you please clarify / give more details? Thanks!

    Hi Steven,

    I am currently using Gridder on the About Us page, which contains other information aside from the employee grid.

    When I click the view more link from an employee, it refreshes the About Us page to reveal it as the employee’s page. The problem is that the other information on the about page is still there, so I would like for the link to go to a Directory page.

    Does this make more sense?

    Thanks,

    Amanda

    re: Does this make more sense?

    Yes, perfectly.

    Create a new page. The name of the page is not relevant but should applicable.

    The content of this new page should be the [connections] shortcode and nothing else.

    Save the page and take note of the page ID, You’ll need it. You can find it in the browser address bar as part of the URL.

    Go to your original directory page and add the home_id shortcode option. You shortcode on the page should look something like this:

    [connections home_id="n"]

    Save the page.

    No when the links in the directory are clicked, they will resolve to the new page.

    Hope that helps!
