The form was working perfectly when I first installed it, but now you can not select the social media channels from the drop down menu. http://www.candidtesting.com/directory-form/

I’m also wondering if it is possible to remove the department field and rename organization?

I do get this error when i tried the F12 in Google Chrome. See attachment.

If it was fine originally using the same theme (I’m assuming you haven’t switched themes) then it likely another plugin that was installed or updated is causing the issue. It doesn’t look like you have many plugins installed and none of those that are installed have any conflict issues that I am aware of … with that said, the issue I’m seeing is usually always caused by themes (generally from ThemeForest). My first suggestion … try the raw and noformat suggestion from this FAQ. The setting option mentioned in this FAQ only effects templates so there is no need to change that setting. Let me know if that resolves it or not.

Thanks, that worked. I had just figured out that the social media drop down appeared after I filled out the organization name. No format code did make it appear automatically.

Is it possible to remove the department field?

And, I will definitely complete an online review. I appreciate how responsive you’ve been!

That field can only be removed by using CSS. Add the following to the theme’s custom CSS area if it has one. If it does not, add it to the end of the theme’s styles.css file:

#cn-org-unit label:nth-of-type(2) {
    display: none !important;
}

I would truly appreciate a review. Many thanks in advance!

@Steven,

I have added the code to the custom.css to the wpzoon Diamond theme but it didn’t seem to work.

What can be causing the issue.

Are there two places to change this ie one the public add entry form plugin and the private admin add entry form.

Does the code work for both?

Thanks

That is because the CSS is no longer valid with Form 2.0 which has better markup and tighter integration with Connections core.

This will do it now:

div#cn-metabox-section-department {
    display: none;
}

Well, almost, this will only work for Form in the front-end, not the admin. Well actually it will work in the admin, the problem is there is no CSS file it can be added to… I suppose you could add it to the cn-admin.css and cn-admin.min.css` files but any time there is an update to Connections you’ll have to readd it.

Hope that helps!

thanks I made the update but I still see the department field on the form. Am I missing something? http://nsleague.wpengine.com/member-directory-2/submit/

@ JoselinMane

Looks like you need to add the !important tag…

div#cn-metabox-section-department {
    display: none !important;
}

Great thanks,

It works for non-logged in and non-admin member. For admin I still see the department field. Is there a way that even the admin doesn’t see department via the website form plugin.

Thanks
