ParticipantHello,
I have a image of a listing here
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ho9ctmi7ug7w6d6/Screenshot%202019-01-23%2014.11.55.png?dl=0
You showed me how to change the name of Categories to Services in another post, this is unrelated so I figured I would ask it here.
In this example the services listed are numerouse and they are really just categories. We have created two top level categories for members and associate members. We, for lack of a better word, Hacked it so the categories act as services. Now when we view the Categories on the page (or services) it shows “Members” as one of the services offered. Is there a way we can hide “Members” technically its not a service. Is there another way to approach this?
Thanks
Jason

If I understand…
You could download and install this addon for Connections:
https://github.com/Connections-Business-Directory/Split-Categories
Click the green button to download the zip file and then install as you would any plugin in WP.
This adds a new settings option on the Connections : Settings admin page under the Advanced tab.
You could choose to split out your services category. And then under the Display tab in the Single Entry Content Block section enable the Services block. And then use the Template Customizer and disable the category display.
Doing this will now only list the categories under the Services category.
Hope this helps!

ParticipantThat worked I think, however the footer piece that once listed the organizations (services) is blank. Is there a way to bring that back?
Thanks

Under the Display tab in the Single Entry Content Block section enable the Services block. This option would have been added automagically when you split the Services category but is disabled by default. So it must be enabled for it to display.
