    Hi.
    I just installed Connections, and I added categories and some entries. However, when I look at the main page, it shows the entries in a list. I would like the main page to have the categories with links to the entries in alpha order. Are there instructions for this? I just want the categories on the main menu.

    Thanks much.

    @ Alicia

    Sorry, no. Many of the templates sold here have a user search category drop down. There is also the Widget Pack. It contain a configurable Category widget that can be placed in the theme’s sidebar.

    What you could do…

    The Widget Pack also allows you to use the widgets as shortcodes. To do this you would add the Category widget to the Connections Widget Shortcode Sidebar, configure it and click save. After you click save, you will be given a shortcode that you can place on any page.

    You would create a “Categories” page and add that shortcode to it. On the directory page you would use the standard [connections] shortcode and set that page as the directory home page.

    Hope that helps!
