The first update to the beta of Form add-on has been released. It’s a minor but important release as this brings the ability to allow the user to select the categories they wish to be listed and the ability for you to set the default entry type. By default the entry type is an ‘Individual’ but now you can easily change this to be an ‘Organization’ by setting a shortcode option. The category select feature is pretty neat, if I may say so. The user can click on the box and just start typing to search for categories, then they simply click the ones in which they would like to be listed. If the user makes a mistake or changes their mind about being listed in a specific category the user simply clicks the ‘x’ to remove that selection. What’s great about this is that this method easily scales to a large number of categories without taking up huge amount of screen space while being very user friendly. I’ve updated the demo, go give it a spin!

Edit the page that you entered the Connections Form shortcode on, switch the editor to the HTML tab. Make sure there is no stray HTML tags or other characters within or around the shortcode. Also, make sure the quotes are real quotes and not fancy quotes. Fancy quotes will have a slight slant to them.
HI, i was wondering who to change the tags to spanish. Im going to use it in a spanish bolg and would like to change the titles to spanish.
Thanks

Currently Form is not translation ready, but you could manually edit all the strings in the connection_form.php file.
