    Hi Steven,

    Yesterday I updated plugins in WordPress (including Connections; I don’t think that cMap updated since I show that 8/16/2018 is the timestamp on the cMap directory). Once updates had finished, I noticed a message associated with Connections on the plugins page that our version of PHP is too old and is no longer compatible with Connections. Our server is running PHP 5.3.10. I am in the process of migrating our website over to a different server, which is running PHP 7, but until that happens, we have some issues that have apparently arisen.

    After seeing the incompatibility message, I reverted back to the previous version of Connections (I had saved a backup before running plugin updates).

    The issues that are now taking place are as follows:

    • The A-Z search listing redirects the user to our homepage instead of filtering by the alphabetical letter that was selected.
    • If you type someone’s name into our Google search box and it pulls up a directory link for that person, when clicked on it redirects the user to our homepage.
    • If you click on a person’s name from within the directory it kicks the user back to the homepage.

    I would really appreciate any help that you are able to provide. More details to come in the next message. Thank you!

    Navigate to the WordPress Permalinks settings admin page. That’s it, do nothing else :)

    Since I had a login, that what I did. That forces WP to flush and recreate its rewrite rules. I suspect the plugin juggling left WP in a state where the Connections rules were flushed (meaning, no longer working).

    Hope this helps!
