Well, the template wasn’t designed to be open by default. So, in order to do that, you will have to edit the template.

Open the card.php found here:
../wp-content/plugins/connections-slim-plus/
or here:
../wp-content/plugins/slim-plus/

Change line 19, which should be this:

in_array( 'show', $categories ) ? $show = ' cn-show' : $show = ' cn-hide';

To this:

in_array( 'show', $categories ) ? $show = ' cn-show' : $show = ' cn-show';

Now, everything will be open by default.

Hope that helps.
