    I have my main directory located on https://www.totalnetworkingteam.com/directory/ and I want to have additional directories with members of each chapter on the individual chapter pages.

    Is there any way to use Connections to show a directory of just people with a certain role in WP? I currently give each chapter group a different role (BigDeals, Generators, Originals).

    Is there a shortcode I can use to make a directory with only members with one of those roles and when a new person is added, they will automatically be included in the correct role after they submit their directory entry?

    RE: Is there any way to use Connections to show a directory of just people with a certain role in WP?

    Sorry, no, since directory entries are not WP Users.

    RE: Is there a shortcode I can use to make a directory with only members with one of those roles and when a new person is added, they will automatically be included in the correct role after they submit their directory entry?

    Sorry, no, for the same reason.

    My suggestion … add your roles as categories in Connections. Update the entries so each entry is in the correct category (role). You can then use the category shortcode option to achieve these results.

    Hope this helps!
