ParticipantHello. Just installed form extension. Following instruction i added submit for to the directory page(s) such as this one: http://birthingfromwithin.com.158-69-37-116.vanilla.websavers.ca/directory/bfw-colorado/
Attached is a screenshot of my connections settings.
The submit your entry link automatically was set to go to: http://birthingfromwithin.com.158-69-37-116.vanilla.websavers.ca/directory/submit/
When i go there it shows the same exact content as http://birthingfromwithin.com.158-69-37-116.vanilla.websavers.ca/directory/ – which is a custom template i designed, and the submit page is not visible in my dashboard. The form is nowhere in sight. I tried creating an actual page with the address http://birthingfromwithin.com.158-69-37-116.vanilla.websavers.ca/directory/submit/ but it’s still showing the directory content.
Note: I don’t want the submit your entry link there at all really, i want to be able to privately give the link to members to create their profiles.
Also once I add the form can i add any special instructions to it for the users?

Keymaster@ Erika
You have the following page set as the home page:
http://birthingfromwithin.com.158-69-37-116.vanilla.websavers.ca/directory/
The directory home page will need to be set to a page which has the
[connections]shortcode on it.The Form settings on the Connections : Settings admin page has options which you can use to place content before and after the form.
Hope that helps!
04/27/2018 at 9:09 pm #460536ParticipantI have over 60 sub pages showing the connections directory for each category. I do not want the main directory showing on that page. Is there a way i can put the [connections] shortcode there and then do a display: none;?
04/28/2018 at 12:56 am #460546ParticipantOk i have created a pretend main page for the main directory and that is working now. Two questions:
- Is there a way I can rename fields – for example change “Organization” to “Business Name”
- I only want to show individual as an option – not organization. I only have organization selected on form settings, but it continues to show both. http://birthingfromwithin.com.158-69-37-116.vanilla.websavers.ca/mentors/submit/
