    For the directory view, I want the first url below to be my default view.

    Displays all entries and index character: http://ciac-lsu.org/?page_id=2501

    The display of a single character search: http://ciac-lsu.org/?page_id=2501&cn-char=B

    Clicking “View All” takes me here: http://ciac-lsu.org/?page_id=2501&cn-view=all

    It is possible to make the “View All” button take me back to: http://ciac-lsu.org/?page_id=2501? There is no other way to get back to this page unless I erase “&cn-view=all” from the URL. Can I use Custom CSS to redirect the “View All” button? Even if I disable this button in the settings, I still need a way to get back to the directory view after I have searched using a character-the back button works but an additional link on the page would be nice. The “Back to Directory” link takes me back to the View All listing which is not what I want my default view to be.

    Any suggestions?

    Any help provided, is appreciated.

    Thank you.

    re: It is possible to make the “View All” button take me back to: http://ciac-lsu.org/?page_id=2501?

    Sorry, no, that is a special reserved link dedicated for the http://ciac-lsu.org/?page_id=2501&cn-view=all page it can not be changed. Sorry!

    One possible options that other uses from time to time…

    If the theme has a button shortcode, most seem to nowadays, you can use the button shortcode using the URL for your directory page. Put it above the [connections] shortcode.

    Hope that helps!
