Steven KassThank you Steven! This is perfect! All is working now thanks again.
I do believe the disconnect started with the original dev site. The subdomain really caused a lot of problems from the start regardless – so I believe that could have caused an issue as well. The dev site did have an updated version of the plugin installed, but we could not easily import all the users through the plugin; so we did it manually through phpmyadmin. But I see what you’re saying: the data from the OLD site was from a previous version (years ago) of the connections plugin, and that is why it didn’t work. When we matched up the table names, and the items in the directory all appeared, we assumed that editing them would work too – but that wasn’t the case. Thank you again for straightening that out!
