re: I’m trying to get the image have a link assigned and have selected in the listing dialogue but the text just expands and contracts when the image is clicked rather than going to the listings url. How can I get this to happen?
Sorry, this is not possible as the template currently is. There’s a lot of javascript logic in place that makes this all work. To change the behaviour would require reworking quite a bit of that logic.
re: even if a url would work in the text without going to the profile that would be acceptable.
If I understand correctly… the only way to do this would actually be to disable the excerpt feature of the expanding panel with the excerpt_length
shortcode option Gridder enables. YOu would use it like so:
[connections excerpt_length=0]
re: Can i have the image display on the profile page as well?
This is how Gridder works by defaults … what is the exact shortcode you are currently using? What are the image settings for the Large image on the Connections : Settings admin page under the Images tab?
re: When a search gets no results the text appears in a single column extending way down the page, perhaps the result is determining the width, how can i stop that happening?
Ahhh… definitely a bug. Gridder will calculate the max width of the row so the expanding panel does not exceed that width. That width is being applied to the entired Connections container when it should only be applied to the Connections list body container. I believe I have a fix for that. If you can give me a temp admin account, I’ll log in and apply the fix. Even with this fix in place, the expanding panel would still only be a single column in this scenario. Well, maybe, I think I may have a solution for that too. I can add a line to check the number of items, if it is less than 2, allow the panel to be full width.
Hope that helps, let me know.
