The code is in the connections_link.php file. The function you’ll need to edit is the listAction() function. The code in that function is what creates the view entry link.

I think this code will add a working link:

if ( is_user_logged_in() &&
    ( self::$entryID == $entry->getId() ) &&
    ( current_user_can( 'connections_edit_entry' ) || current_user_can( 'connections_edit_entry_moderated' ) )
    ) {

    cnURL::permalink( array( 'type' => 'edit', 'slug' => $entry->getSlug(), 'text' => __( 'Edit Entry', 'connections_form' ), 'return' => FALSE ) );
}

I haven’t tested it and I assume you have the Form Extension because the link will resolve to the page with Form.

Hope that helps!

btw…

I have added this to my feature request tracker. It is a good idea, so I will be adding it as an option. I also plan on to adding a widget for both the list and entry actions to core Connections so the widgets could be used instead of being shown before the result list or entry… we’ll maybe I’ll release them as a free extension instead.

Thank you so much!
I did purchase the Form extension.

I was able to get it working, however, I was getting an error on getSlug() so I just appended /edit to the View My Directory Entry link.

I look forward to the the widget!
Thanks again to both of you.

Jett,

Could you walk me through what you did to get the link on the results page?

The several attempts i made at using it would stop the output of the file.

• Did you delete contents of the function or add to it (and where)
• Did you have to edit your template card.php as well?
• How did you change the code?
• Is anything checked/unchecked in the settings page?

Thanks

Dom

Steven: Looking forward to the new features thanks.

In the connections_link.php file and within the listActions function, I duplicated the code that generates the View My Directory Entry and added the word edit to the end of the link. see code below.

I wasn’t able to get it to work in the widget so it just has another line under the View My Directory Entry

preg_match( '/href="(.*?)"/', cnURL::permalink( array( 'slug' => $entry->slug, 'return' => TRUE ) ), $matches );
$permalink = $matches[1];                   
echo '
';
printf( '%2$s',esc_url( $permalink ), _( 'Update My Directory Entry', 'connections_link' ));
