re: starting on line 25
Ok, I was contemplating on adding an action to one could target either the add or edit. That way different instructions can be given based on the users action.
re: Where exactly do these code snippets get added?
There’s several options. You could write you’re own plugin and drop the snippets in it. Another option is to drop it in the theme’s functions.php file. My personal favorite is installing Code Snippets. You could add the code I gave you as a new snippet. That’s the method I was using to test the filter to make sure it worked as expected.
re: when will Link 2.0 and Form 2.0 be released?
Best I can say… sooner rather than later. I see you purchase the Pro Pack — I can send you advanced copies. Having someone using them will help to find any remaining issues that I need to address before the official release. Is the email address on you account where I should send them?
re: 3) The Member Home Page has a link offering people the opportunity to Add a Directory Entry.
With the beta Form and Link, you could send them to a page with Form instead. Although, it sounds link you could create a “bridge” with DAP and automatically add them to Connections too. I am willing to bet they have an action that you could hook into post registration and programmatically add them to Connections. The you would only need to add a “View My Entry” link. When they visit it while logged in, they’ll be presented with an option to edit their entry.
re: By the way, I love the idea that you would provide a hook for customizing the Directory form
With the action hooks, you could echo out anything you want… Can you attach a screen capture of your manage page with the instructions? Just so I can see. Before I send you the betas, I’ll add the action(s).
