Hi Steve,

I want to add fields in the admin section of the plugin and then display them on the individual pages (not necessarily within the directory). In other words, if the standard template (or any template) comes with 5 fields for data, and I need 8 fields of data, how do I make this happen (incidentally this would be a great feature). Is there an easy way to do this? Please let me know.

Thanks,

Tim

PS – I am going to use the Say What? plugin to change field labels across the board, but I remember you mentioning to me a while back that renaming fields would be available in a future release. I noticed there was a new release in one of my sites that says “this is a major update”. Was this feature available? And I know this can be done via shortcode for display, but it is not effective when building sites for clients who have no clue how the plugin works. They just want to see their field and edit. Let me know. It’s something I have been waiting for and would make my life much easier :). Thanks again.

The best answer it to refer you to a few free extensions I’ve release for Connections … all showing, in code, how to add custom fields. Please take a look at these extensions:
http://wordpress.org/plugins/connections-business-directory-hours/
http://wordpress.org/plugins/connections-business-directory-income-levels/
http://wordpress.org/plugins/connections-business-directory-education-levels/

Say What? is the method I’ve been recommending on changing fields labels … sorry I really can not recall what I may have meant by renaming fields and in what context.
